I was wondering what peoples opinions were between HKS and racing beats header back exhaust systems for the N/A. HKS is like 500 dollars more and it looks better, but does it perform better?

the HKS systems' pricing is insane..you can buy a beat GXL for a parts car for as much as their exhaust systems. go with racingbeat ....they sound soooo sexy

I think it is only a cat back.



I would go with RB. It is WAY better, plus RB only deals with rotaries, so they know what they are doing.
