JIC vs. HKS

[chinaxb0y]

i'm looking to purchase an new exhaust but debating on which one i should get. i would like something that isn't too loud and that have a deep sound to it. i know people might say get the greddy but i rather pick from these two. so out of these two which would you guys get ?

Since JIC Majic is the only company that makes exhaust for our cars between the 2 you posted.

JIC because 1) I have one, and 2) what Sleeper said.

hey vietguy, hows the sound. is it pretty loud ? deep sound ? do you have full piping from cat back ?

[ThatVietGuy]

Full cat back, judge for yourself:

i prefer a modified Greddy Evo. Both resonators removed!

both of those are too loud for me.. great for what they are tho!

im going with custom duals with headers.. resonators to take the place of the cats.. and HKS mufflers.. i just want the throaty low tones and still have the power.. makes for quieter road trips and im an old guy who just wouldnt look good driving a car that loud

Greddy Evo isn't that loud.
Here's my Greddy Evo exhaust.

yep, Sounds good.. Greddy makes great exhaust.. had one on my 240... i just saw a set of HKS on a buddy of mines 300zx.. sounded great.. not too loud and proved itself with quite a bit of power. Throaty really low tone even when reving..
keep in mind that i am going to run a dual setup, so it will split the sound in 2 anyway

seems like there is alot of tuning going on for the Solaras.. hoping you dont have to tune one for just adding an exhaust

Unless you're goin' wit a S/C or turbo setup you really don't need to run dual exhaust.
It looks weird on the Solara, IMO.
And you don't need to tune the Solara after addin' exhaust.
The ECU isn't picky about it.
Only cars i know that are really picky about exhaust is WRX STI, and Evo's.....
