Yeah, I have the HKS with a BHR mid and it sounds great. The total lack of a resonator ore even a cheap one makes it sound like poo.

Yes we all have 13B's that sound proper. Reason being we don't chop our stock exhausts up and weld on random pipes to replace resonators.

How do you fit quad exhaust tips in a stock bumper with out melting everything? Offset them like an IS-F?

If I did 4" it would melt everything, but I stayed 3" so it wouldn't touch.

I have a quick question, I know that I should be in the other thread but whatever-
Im wanting to get some of the XXR 527's in an 8.75 w/ +20 offset. I am currently on stock sport suspension. How horrible is this fitment and would I have to run retarded camber once I put coilovers on it. Side note- I plan on dropping it at least 2" to 2.5". Thanks.

^+1. Most people in this thread can run that offset on wheels 2inches wider than that.

once you lower the car you're gonna be tucked. camber won't matter.

Yeah I know. But Im trying not to run any crazy camber. I had a staggered fitment on my last car and had some 8.5 +35's in front and some 9.5 +20's in the back. It was a nice fitment in the back, but I had to run around 3.8 degrees of camber just to fit under the fender.
