How noisy do you want it?

Drager II which I have is not as loud as Hyper but still sounds great.

Steve / David

I would be interested on why you both rate the Hiper so highly.

Cheers guys

I have had several exhausts on my scoobs over the years, and although it took me ages to go for the hiper, i was glad i did.

Firstly, it sounds superb IMO, and the quality is also excellent. Its a straight no fuss 3 inch exhaust.

Secondly, without changing the map on my car i gained 5bhp and 13ftlb by changing from a magnex centre and scoobysport back box, bringing power levels to 343bhp and 325lbft.

Thirdly, because i also have the bung for mine, its like having 2 exhaust systems, but quickly interchangeable (about 2 minutes to remove the bung)

Downside imo, as with anything HKS orientated, its exspensive new. Think my system (centre, back box and bung) cost £500 delivered new, and that was with haggling.

If i had another scoob, then thats would going on.

I have also just recently spent a lot of money on my car (again), changing various things. I have not changed the exhaust though.

For those that know me, that says a lot about the exhaust.

Steven

Agree with everything steven says, having seen a lot of scoobs and a lot of exhausts that just make horrible noises.. (its cut on an angle) and the hiper is the best by far.

Hiper all the time.. or Pats system.. (but thats loud and stops you going on rolling roads )

I use erm.. well did use a borrowed hiper.. that has to go back

So Im now making one out of scrap bits of ****e exhausts.

Cheers, interesting stuff.

My STi 9 came with an HKS Super Drager II on it which as per the Hiper is basically a 3" no fuss sytem. However being the Drager II it also comes with a bung and the rear silencer is minute.

Agree they sound and look excellent, if a tad expensive.

Cheers

*** hijack alert! ***
Oi Simon!!! Gerrof!!
*** hijack alert! ***

Steven: Hiper sounds the ticket.. are the bungs available seperately?
Keigo's one doesnt have a bung (would seriously annoy the 'wife' and sprog without) - your car was very civil with the bung IN and would not be a problem I reckon..

Pat should sell earplugs with his spec' system

You can get the bungs seperatly.

Drager, tends to follow the same router as OEM exhaust, but bigger bore. Hiper takes the straighest route possible.
