Mvpmotorsports.com has it for $560, that's the cheapest I could find from the sites that I know.

expensive foldgers can. indeed HKS is good shit but so is greddy, apexi, and even thermal R&D. and their cheaper too! i was looking for the hks hiper myself, but i opted to go with the greddy sp2 (which is also FULL stainless) because i found it on ebay for $500 shipped. my $.02
later.

Well the reason I wanted an hks is because it gets the most hp and torque that I have seen out of any other product on dyno charts. Especially when turboed, the exhaust itself rounded up 21.2 hp and 19lb/ft of tq. I was like Damn! I saw a dyno on a 5th gen with an Apexi-n1 exhaust and it only got a total of 2hp. I was like what an overpriced piece of shit! I was dissappointed with apexi on that one. They usually have quality products. Guess the engineers did not think that one through all the way. or maybe it was a bad car but I have seen similar results on different cars also so I don't know.

that cant be right. was the apexi just a rear section, or even just a muffler? maybe the apexi had OLNY the exhaust done. to feel significant results in a catbac exhaust, you must have the intake and header. a high-flow catalitic converter would be a good idea also, or even a test pipe. tie all that together with a good catback exhaust, and power gains are VERY apparent. just some extra stuff.

yeah but the dyno I saw for all of the products was just the cat back system, added to a turbo 5th gen. the same car. And thats what I thought I was like what apexi only mad 2hp? I don't know man I saw the dyno so I am weary of them now.

It was probably a misprint, maybe it was 20. I went with Hks myself. It was down to them or greddy evo. They looked about the same too, so I figured if they're almost identical I'll take the one that had the slight higher number- no brainer.
