HKS Hi Power Exhaust

March 25, 2010 · Filed Under Automotive · Comments Off 

The HKS hi power exhaust is available as an aftermarket hi powered exhaust for many makes and models including but not limited to: Acura, Mazda, Honda, Toyota, Ford, GM, Dodge, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Nissan and Subaru. The HKS hi power exhaust is modeled after some of the GT racing in Japan for turbo charging and aspirated uses. HKS hi power exhausts incorporated the race inspired offset mufflers and pipes into street use that now offers more flow and higher PRM because the design is less restrictive. This is made by taking out bends that are not needed, and giving a straighter path for the exhaust.

When used as a supercharger, the HKS hi power exhaust lets more exhaust velocity through for better mid range boosts and more high RPM power. Those vehicles that are naturally aspirated will see better exhaust flow when the engine’s tuning levels go up. There are some silent HKS hi power exhaust versions that have a silencer inside the muffler. All of the HKS hi power exhaust systems are made out of stainless steel tips and mufflers, and some of these tips range in size from 96mm to 120 mm in diameter depending on make and model of the vehicle. Piping diameters range from 55mm-95mm depending on the make and model of vehicle application. There are special editions of carbon titanium HKS hi power exhausts that are only available for specific models of vehicle. These special versions are made of a carbon fibered wrap shell on the muffler, a titanium tip and piping that is made of polished stainless steel. Read more
