it sounds like absolute ____! trust me i know haha i jus love the straight design of it, none of that angled crap lol.

i went to a toyota dealer recently and all thr mechanics were like thats the best sounding exhaust weve heard on a tc yet LULZ is what i did haha i was like ughh your joking? lol

i ____ around with DJ i like the concept g alot and if i were to ever change my exhaust again it would be a concept g or an HKS even though its Sooo angled

ya the sound of the HKS sounds good stock but it seems like as soon as people change headers or mid pipes its gets all rapsy and i dont like the angle so i dont feel like dealing with all the resonators needed

concept G! i love mine. it fits perfectly right beneath the bumper and doesn't burn it. great sound.

i would say DJ's video represents the sound of it pretty well but like he said its louder and deeper in person. very bassy around the 2-3k range

only thing that kept me from getting a HKS was cause it was expensive back in the day and the fact that exhaust is like the size of a big foldgers coffee can! it looks nice but if your not boosting you may just end up getting a lot of unwanted attention.
