I'd be willing to bet very much the same. Same basic V6 block, same exhaust routing.

perhaps, but consider the one liter difference in displacement between the two motors so it might not be the same. no beter way to find out than compare the two side by side.

i don't think there is a major difference in weight, both are heavier then I thought, but the HKS/OEM pipes are definely more free flowing.

they are going to release an AM exhaust of their own. i talked to them the other day, they said probably by end of the year, so i guess that means december, but you know how specific dates are far from certain...

Default Will it fit ok with the ground effects kit in place?

Are there any fitment problems if you have the ground effects kit? I'm thinking of getting one for my IS and just want to make sure it'll fit ok.
