Would you say it has more drone than the AWE Touring? I liked the sounds of the AWE but the drone bothered me. I'm assuming the AWE Touring would have a very similar sound between the FK8 and FL5, but maybe its not fair to compare AWE touring on FK8 to HKS Hi-Power on FL5

I think you may have accidentally double posted :)

can't wait for mine to come in! Should be coming in mid June from my vendor.

Do you have any rear shots of the car with the exhaust on?

how was the angling of your exhaust? i noticed after 2 days it's very slightly angled. not the end of the world but slightly bothers me lol. the exhaust is centered and i'm not sure if i noticed it when my shop installed it until now.

Its actually dead on straight. Made sure of that before I tightened all the bracket bolts down. Check the pic I posted above a couple replies.

Anyone have any in-cabin sound clips of this exhaust? I've been looking and haven't found many.

Looks nice and clean with most of the badging removed. I did the same with previous cars. Any plans to remove the H emblem?
If the emblem is like any previous Honda emblem, it would involve body work because of the two centering pins in the back. And then the front wouldnt match. I like it with just the emblems, its even and geometric.

@ctechauto Do you know what material the midpipe is? Is it stainless steel? I can't find that detail online. Curious that it's painted black

The whole thing should be stainless steel. Exact grade, not sure - likely T304 though. And yeah its coated similarly to cerakote or high temp temp in a dark grey
