Originally Posted by INGS+1 Body kit
LX SPORT EXHAUST SYSTEM is developed to produce a cozy light exhaust note and casual rear end look after passing the latest safety standard. When the mass of the rear end increases due to a use of our or other aero parts, it sometimes becomes difficult to keep the aero parts and the end of the muffler flushed each other. We have solved the problem by introducing the slide adjustment mechanism. The exhaust system does suit nicely to the stock bumper, but the best result is created when it is used with our own aero kit. (based on our testing standard). The tail end is a standard oval shape which is designed to give off a sense of luxuriousness. As for the performance, the use of stainless SUS304 has extended the durability considerably. Furthermore, the special silencer manufactured without any use of glass wool has made it possible to provide an extremely long term 3 year or 50,000 km warranty.

Pretty sweet. A nice way to get a little exhaust sound while keeping the stock look. Very nice.

That Auto Couture....not so much.

i would choose either ING or stock

the AC setup is just super ugly

but it's kind of silly if the exhaust can't be "seen"

The Stock exhausts already have a sound system that can be heard up to 80km/hr but im not sure about Stock Vs ING+1. If someone has installed that ING+1 please tell us how strong the exhaust sound is.

Adding a turbo would probably do so but i hope replacing the exhausts gives more HP.

Agreed. I hope someone confirms whether its just sound or there additional HP. But overall they look 10X better than stock exhausts.

Frankly Speaking I dont need to Install the exhaust on my own car to see whether it gives more HP or not.You can always contact the company that provided that product. I always study things well, read about things contact the company. Ask about every single thing and then Install the item.

Well i see youve learnt from your mistakes buddy rushing things out installing them to be the first to reach the moon.. No no no..
I never installed a rear trunk spoiler when another HOT rear trunk spoiler exists.

Hopefully when i have my modifications ill upload them here and maybe use photoshop and paint the car so it matches your car color and see how beautifull my car is

More INGS+1 Products:

LX-SPORT BRAKE PAD



LX-SPORT BRAKE PAD, in order to handle the deterioration of the braking performance due to a choice of larger and larger wheel which is quite common in the dressing up cars scene, has successfully increased the stopping power without negatively affecting the smooth feel. Many stock brake pads these days, in order to deal with an increased vehicle weight, use a compound with higher torque. That in turn tends to increase friction dust from the brake rotor itself due to its aggressiveness on the rotor wear, not to mention the dust from the brake pads. By making the best use of Rorstel manufacturing method, LX-SPORT BRAKE PAD has succeeded in reducing not only the dust from the brake pad but also the dust and particles from the rotors. In addition, as a by-product of gentle characteristics on rotors, the durability of a rotor is also extended. In spite of all the excellent features above, there are no shortcomings on the street use. Almost a full year was spent for the research and development of LX-SPORT PAD. This is the best brake pad we can proudly present to you. Now it is you r turn to experience this amazing brake pad.






LX SPORT BRAKE SYSTEM



As an ultimate dress-up item, LX-SPORT BRAKE SYSTEM is developed for the customers who always demand the finest quality The system improves the appearance of the footwork notably by reducing the space between the brake rotor and the wheel. LX-SPORT style always emphasizes not only on the appearance but also on the functionality. This brake system is not an exception. Along with the excellent stopping power from high speed, it also provides comfortable operation on the street. The kit includes calipers of high rigidity forged aluminum, large diameter two piece type rotors, and the stainless mesh brake hoses. Definitely the best choice of the brake pad for this system is LX-SPORT BRAKE PAD. This is the best brake system both for appearance and for the functionality.

usually they add a bit power, but imho they are negligible. if i get exhaust it's always about the look and sound
