HKS 3BA/5BA-RZ34 VR30DDTT Super Turbo Muffler

[Todd marks]

Sounds similar to my fast intentions one, this is the resonated version with lowered downpipes.

Little bit louder but the exhaust notes aren’t too far apart from one another. Really curious to hear the difference in person/in cabin.

Just installed mine yesterday. Definitely the #1 choice! Very satisfied because finally, the car is gratifying to hear! Just gotta work on getting some intakes that actually can be heard. My video on this exhaust goes live on Youtube tomorrow.

Did you get the super turbo or dual muffler version?

I have this one, not sure why people are knocking on it. I noticed performance gains as well as a subtle boost in sound. It’s also reasonably priced.

I got Dual Hi-Power Titanium Tip Catback Exhaust.

I might be interested in these. I'm sorta surprised there's no HKS setup yet.

Thanks for sharing! Nice to see a YouTube video that's informative without some obnoxious influencer shouting so thank you for that lol. I think the Hks sounds good, perhaps a little on the mild side but I think most will be that way before downpipes. Id prefer that because sometimes adding downpipes just makes things too loud for daily use so I think you're sitting in a great spot.

I want an exhaust bad! I just can't decide what to get. Seems to be quite a few good options out there.

I’m really liking mine, especially outside the cabin. Sounds even more exotic in person or WOT.

Absolutely! Yeah, I can't stand the extra theatrics some Youtubers have when shooting a video. It just doesn't come off as genuine when something epic or special actually happens. Stradman is probably the biggest offender in my book lol.

Yeah, I'm IN LOVE with this HKS setup so far. It was the most attractive tone out of the other systems offered. I actually look for small reasons just to drive it. That's the kind of stuff I like.

I honestly chose this system because when I eventually get to the downpipes and tune. If it's too loud, I can take off the turn-downs from the chambers and cap them and it'll tone it down some. That's a win/win for me.

I heard the HKS one in person without downpipes and did not like it at all. Sounded like a slightly nicer version on the automatic Zs in sport mode. The resonated fast intentions exhaust without their lowered downpipes is by far my favorite. Even the guys who dyno/tuned my car at AMS who have two 2023 Zs were raving about. It’s a whole other animal outside of the cabin in person. Sounds much more exotic/JDM than the video that I just recently posted. I was shocked when I heard it outside of the vehicle .

It’s also not loud at all either unless I step on it, then again the exhaust notes still subtle.

It’s amazing how quiet the HKS Super Turbo exhaust is. It sound a little louder than the stock M/T stock exhaust. Much better tone though. I’m looking forward to picking my car up and hearing how it sounds in the cabin. It would also be nice to find someone with dual muffler setup and compare tone and db levels.

If it's like the dual muffler it'll get a bit louder over time.

I've had the Dual muffler installed this morning. Very happy with it so far with limited driving. Just enough loudness and a nice tone with zero drone. The exhaust is engineered brilliantly and attention to detail spot on (as it should be for the price).

Laid out ready to go:

The stock pipe next the HKS showing how tiny stock is.

Installed with caps on:

Quality is top notch. The tips can be adjusted to slide in or stick out. I prefer them to sit more flush:

Stock exhaust (cold start):

With the caps on (sorry I missed the start up):

One cap on, one cap off:

Both caps off:

Another with both caps off at home. Here, I learnt the car has a 5000rpm soft limiter.

The guy at the workshop filmed a driveby as I was leaving. I'll post that up once they share it on their socials.

I think I'll be leaving the caps off for now. I wasn't after anything too obnoxious and this is the perfect amount of volume with a nice tone. Later on, if I get LDPs, the caps would probably need to go back on.

Can you elaborate a bit more on the 5k soft limiter please?
