Well, I actually have both. I have the Helix flex up pipe and Helix bellmouth downpipe. Both are great pieces...really nice quality and zero fitment issues. From the Downpipe back I have an HKS Hyper and love it as well. The muffler tip is a little big for my taste, but it sounds great and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Stay away from the HKS down pipe...it's junk. I got these pieces from Gruppe-S. They usually run specials if you buy all these in one shot.

people diss the hks cuz it's not bell mouth or divorce wastegate
but there's a dude in texas that just dyno'ed his car, 399hp, and that's w/the hks dp
and you know hks build quality parts, not to say helix is bad, just wanted u to have some numbers, instead of just opinions

what else did that guy haev on his car?
you can't say that he made 399 HP to the crank? or the wheels? just from a dp
that dyno is broken if that is what he said/ you intend

also, i'm not trying to say that the dp made that much, just pointing out that you can make big power w/the hks dp
and yes, he does have tons of other mods as well, but again, the point is that you can make big power w/hks' dp
