which muffler?, tryin to go japanese Options

[95GTspeed]

im gettin custom exhaust system with 2.5" piping soon and im still pondering over what muffler to get. Right now im goin with HKS or Blitz. What do you think and any other suggestions would be great but remember im tryin to stay japanese so that means no greddy. thanks!

I havn't heard anything about a blitz muffler, but blitz is blitz and I doubt they would put anything out there that wasn't of the highest quality, and HKS well they would be the same way either way you go your going to get the best.

You also have Kakimoto.

Very good.

HKS Hi-Power and Kakimoto. Kakimoto from some reviews give more hp and torque than the hks, but you cannot go wrong with hks if you cannot get the kakimoto.

[west_minist]

You may have to look to australia or do a search for the one you want.

I am lucky because my car will be coming from Japan.

I understand.

Just think of more that you will have to do and then decide on that.

In my case, the 4age 20v comes stock with <165HP.

I am looking for 240+ with normal mods.

Depending on how much the head can take, my aim is 320hp.

So I need every bit of big gains.

HKS... I just bought the HKS muffler and damn its pretty! Also just saw an APEXI Muffler and its pretty too!

[Celicav]

Bosal makes nice universal aftermarket mufflers also! I have one with my catback setup...

[95GTspeed]
