to me they are one in the same (both made by HKS) and if I had no other choice but between these two? I'd save my money and get the HKS one.

WOW~! U are such a great guy

Even if I want to install by myself, still it's too hard to me..OMG

Anyway, thanks your opinion

And what is the difference between them? And which is better and louder?

the HKS/lexus exhaust was developed by HKS specifically for the 2is. think of it as a predecessor of the f-sport exhaust: you could order it as an accessory and have it installed at the dealership, all the while keeping your factory warranty intact.

the hi-power is HKS's aftermarket alternative.

between the two, the hi-powers are much louder - for an axle back application.

I'm sorry for this question, I'm new here. And what is difference between cat-back and axle-back?

Thanks.
