you can contact my buddy mike @ teamshiftpoint . it's a local hobbyshop for cars and they do stuff on the side. they actually service several of my friend's cars (including some n/a modded is300s and a few turbo is300s). mike's contact# 832-372-7225, and you can ask for a quick quote over the phone. tell him bernard sent you.

Here is my HKS Hi-Power exhaust video. My video camera didn't do a good job capturing the droning / resonance that comes when at moderate throttle, so you'll need to drive one to see what I'm talking about. Hopefully, this can be reduced by going with the OEM mid-pipe / y-pipe hangers intead of the really stiff HKS hangers.

had my HKS and fujita on for a few weeks now.
the HKS definitely is louder than stock.
louder than my old greddy evo on my old IS300.
the intake has a nice swooshing noise under semi agressive acceleration.
having the intake does seem to lessen the exhaust noise a little bit.
overall i would say small increase in throttle response but it is very loud almost like the civics with aftermarket exhaust.
the exhaust was easy to install, 30 minutes.
intake maybe an hour but still easy.
lost a couple of those snap in bolts so be careful not to drop it in the engine bay.
