Default HKS vs. Thermal

I am wanting to get a new exhaust kit for my ION, but I just don't know which one is better. Anyone have any insight? I am kind of leaning toward the Thermal Exhaust over the HKS. Thanks.

HKS has always been friggin' awesome, but the Thermal's done great things for saturns...so, I'd just go w/ which one's cheaper/looks better; my guess is that they're about the same.

The only way you're gonna know which is better is to buy both and then dyno

I've been waiting 3+ weeks for my HKS exhuast to come in from SMS

I've almost given up on it

Yeah, I know what you mean...I've been waiting on my Borla for about 2.5 wks (but it's not Borla's fault...it's the merchant's), but I haven't given up on it !
