HKS is more expensive, though I would be guessing quality would be good too. I'm not sure as I can't comment. AVO I'm happy with it at the price, it's $990rrp for the AVO, and the HKS one is $1500+.

Thanks for the feed back mate.

Big difference in price there. You'd want to hope the quality is awesome.

Some how I don't think you'd get $500 + worth of better performace.

Yoh.. swingn..

Being a wagon driver myself.. my setup is HKS DP and Fuji catback... the sound is deep and loud... once you hit boost.. boy, it just screams... ask phil or leo, I aint shy on giving it a fang.

There is quite a price difference but I have always been a true believer of, you get what you pay. You can't go past the quality of the HKS DP, it is sexy.

Next meet, I will take you for a spin if you want to know how loud it is from the inside... if you want to know outside noise, ask the boys.. :D

I know the HKS one would be awesome in terms of quality, however that's still $500 in your pocket - and I don't think $500 is worth 5kW, not to mention I don't think it will gain 5kW over the AVO one...

THAT was your exhaust? Sorry, man. I thought they were strangling a cat. :biggrin:

Heh-heh. I only kid. Anyone sporting the Fujitsubo and a dump pipe like Jason or Phil certainly sounds a lot more aggressive. Frightening even. :swoon: Certainly bred for the racetrack.

"you get what you pay" ........... i think that just sum it all up !!

Matt think i already spend enough time explain about the exhaust ... all u have to do now is go for a spin is LOUEY mobile .............since thats a wagon .. auto ... 04-05 GT... pretty much same as urs ... and then make your decision ... at the end it's your car ... get what u like ~~~~~

:wink:

Cheers guys for all the advice.

Leo, your 100% right mate. As you know, I don't want to cheap out on anything I do, I just want to make sure I make the right choice before purchasing anything.

Louey, I'll take you up on that offer! Hopefully it'll be sooner rather then later.

Cheers
Matty

Dr Jim,

You havent trialled or seen other things that people are running before purchasing yourself.... I know you will purchase that suction kit... Let me place the order through for you.
