slugger1 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 On the way home from work my back box decided to shear off so I am desperately in need of a replacement a.s.a.p! I currently have an HKS Hipower (at least that's what I think it is because it has no markings on it). I'm looking for something similar in terms of sound/looks etc. I have already sent off an email to Whifbitz to see what they can recommend. Can anyone on here suggest a good alternative? The quicker the better as my car is a daily runner. The car is a 1997 facelift twin turbo with very minor engine mods. Cheers in advance.

slugger1 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 Thanks mate but I think I will need to get one a bit more local to me. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamaSupra Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 My HKS says "HKS Hi-Power" on the tip, stupid question but you looked on the tip and not the back box didn't you? Whifbitz will deliver fast, or they have whenever I've bought something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugger1 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 Yes, checked the tip and it doesn't say anything. Is yours stainless steel all the way through to the cats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamaSupra Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 No I think mine is mild stainless steel mate. The HKS Silent Power is stainless steel through to the cats though I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barneybrendan Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 can you not just weld it back on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugger1 Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 No, it's already been welded twice before and now it's completely rusted through. Anyway i've just ordered a new one from Paul Whiffin. It's the single box system so should hopefully have a nice noise level! Anyone on here got one of these?

Nic Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 No I think mine is mild stainless steel mate. The HKS Silent Power is stainless steel through to the cats though I think. Correct the HKS Hi Power is mild steel from the back box backwards, the HKS Silent Hi Power is 100% stainless steel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugger1 Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 New exhaust arrived today courtesy of Paul Whiffin but it's damaged! Bloody couriers must have dropped it as there is a nice dent around the end pipe. Pissed off, will have to send it back now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
