Hks Legamax Exhaust Pix W/ Videos
 
5 Attachment(s)
Finally picked up my HKS Legamax Exhaust. This is the perfect exhaust for anyone looking for a high quality exhaust system. The welds are top notch (like a stack of nickels). I didn't get a chance to weigh both the stock and hks system but it is much lighter. The tone of the exhaust is perfect. Not loud at all during idle but when you hit the gas people will know your there. It's not as loud as the Greddy exhaust but louder than racing beats. I guess it falls in right between the two as far as sound goes. The installation was pretty easy. Okay I lied, I had a friend of mine install it for me.

Here are some pics of the HKS exhaust and the stock exhaust side by side. Also notice how thick the exhaust flange is.

Here is a link to the HKS website:

Dude, you suck and your exhaust blows!
</Jealousy>

Ok, now that is out of my system, DAMN! That might be the best look exhaust kit I've ever seen... a f#$%ing work of art! Congrats!

I won't even ask how much, because I'm going to pretend it's not for sale and that my yearly bonus isn't sitting around my checking account looking all bored :)

XDEEDUBBX 04-05-2005 12:22 AM

thanks g8trboy! The exhaust is great! I highly reccomend it!. As far as price goes it was money well spent. You get what you pay for.

Looks good!Thanks for your review on the HKS exhaust.Now I"m really leaning towards buying the HKS since you felt that it's not too loud like the Greddy but louder than the Racing Beat so it's just perfect.How much you got the HKS for?How long did it took you to install it?

XDEEDUBBX 04-05-2005 10:36 AM

I got a hook up price through a friend. Spent about $800 on it. I've put a lot of miles on it since the install and the sound just keeps getting better.

Something tells me you like HKS. Call it a hunch. :p
Anyways, sounds good man. At WOT ours cars sound the same. :D

XDEEDUBBX 04-05-2005 11:19 AM

you really are a HKS junkie

XDEEDUBBX 04-05-2005 12:27 PM

i know man....its better than drugs..haha sometimes...

mzrx 04-05-2005 12:33 PM

what is the weight of the HKS exhaust? JUst looking to shave some weights.

XDEEDUBBX 04-05-2005 01:35 PM

Thats the thing we forgot to do before the install.. I wanted to weigh both the stock and hks exhaust....Outla extreme is getting his exhaust soon..maybe we can weigh his before he installs it..

RacingDynamcs 04-06-2005 11:33 PM

sounds fantastic!~

Jdunsh 04-06-2005 11:50 PM

Sounds sooo nice, 1000 dollars though?

XDEEDUBBX 04-07-2005 01:29 AM

i paid around $800 for the exhaust. To me it was money well spent. Most of you will disagree but talk to anyone that owns this exhaust and they will tell you differently...

BlueFrenzy 04-07-2005 02:02 AM

Sounds good to me. The performance increase is probably minimal right?

Wow, you really went nuts on the HKS stuff!!

the performance gains on any exhaust on the market for our cars is going to be minimal. It all comes down to preference. BTW i love their products... =)

Confucious say, harmonious balance achieved in car creates financial imbalance in bank account :)

Did he really fu@#$g say that? That's awesome... especially since there were like no cars back then... he probably thought of it when he was hanging out with his homie Nostradamus...

I'm just kidding. I know he didn't say that, but man that was friggin funny... :D :D :D

Although you have to wonder that if Confucius said that, but THEN he got into the car with that exhaust in it, he'd say something like... "HELL YEAH! DROP THOSE BENJAMINS AND STRAP THAT BIA BIA ONTO THAT BEAST!! WE'RE GONNA GO WHOOP SOME ASS TONIGHT!!" or something like that...

:D
