That picture ^ actually shows the flanges upside down (bottom of the car view). This is the correct orientation showing the top of the exhaust and the way it sits under the car (I have this exhaust on my car).

I'm pretty sure they are the same flanges Sasha, however, they may be in a different position (distance) than the the FI system....
I can always bring the car by in the Spring to have you check it out for any custom HKS builds you have orders pending for.

Thanks for the correction on that, and for the offer on the car. Something to keep in mind I guess.

I would only take a day to make the kit fit this exhaust, and only the Y-section would have to be midified. Not a big deal at all. The F.I exhaust Y-pipe would bolt up to this, the length may be the only issue.

Sorry, I did not imply for you to get the kit....you probably can't handle power anyway..

Having it fit the HKS exhaust would be awesome! It would really help me be sold on the kit.

That being said, I read earlier on your thread that you were planning on resuming production on the kits for a May sale time? I'm currently debating forced induction for my car, and I really like how easy the install is. It's probably the biggest selling point there is for me. ^^

I will see what I can do regarding the exhaust fitment.

Correct on the production. It seems like I get at least one requst per week from those that really want to get in on the next batch of kits. Looks like there is no end (of work for me) in sight...

I really hope people aren't "on hold" for this kit because of an exhaust of their choice they would rather use (other than OEM or FI).

Any exhaust shop can modify or make a y-pipe to mate up to any exhaust for $75-150.

Ouch May delivery. I didnt think you were that far behind

I already spoke to my wife this weekend and she gave me the go ahead.. She pretty much gave me a "whatever".. thats a yes in my book!

I could give a deposit for a May kit?

Alstann · 01-03-2013, 06:53 AM

Honestly, I'm not too worried about the exhaust not mating up - I have many shops around me that could make one that fits no pressure. I just happened to notice the similarity between the FI TDX and the HKS Hi Power.

Either way, I am definitely interested in one of these kits Sasha. May is actually a perfect time for me - I still have to sort out a few more finances, as well as supporting drivetrain mods. ^^
