GR Yaris What did you do to your GR Yaris today?

Just ordered Hks hi power spec exhaust … just hoping it’s not too loud. I just prefer this one after listening to a few clips rather than the turbo HKS… fingers crossed.. has anyone else had experience or have one of these on their cars ..
I have it and very happy with it. If it's your only exhaust upgrade I'm sure you'll be happy. Not very loud, nice bassy tone. Only on cold starts it's a bit louder, but most neighbours will tolerate. I had horrible booming before I turned off ESE and ANC. Iirc ANC was the bigger problem out of the two. Did you opt any other tips or burned titan?

This is a clip with sound, but also have HJS downpipe so it's a bit louder.

Took my Yaris for it’s first (and also mine of that type) event - spent the day at a slalom chill & race day in Slovakia 🇸🇰

I met there with a friend, who has a Mini GP and each of us gave a ride to the other one. The Mini is a weapon! 😅

Finished the day by driving home and luckily GPS took me through a nice pass where I’ve caught Merc G63 who was pushing the car there a lot, so naturally I joined and was on his tail the whole time 😁 All together a great day with GRY!

I'm running the HKS super turbo muffler and love it. The sound of the exhaust is personal to each owner. What I can say is, the quality of manufacture is 100%

Cleaned all the flies and flying ants from the car, after a trip where I probably got my first speeding ticket - we'll see.
Used the horn - not exactly an impressive thing. The drive in front went WTF, and I went WTF and had to do it again.
Needs an air horn.

With me, it was a toss up between the two. I listen to a few clips and went for the other, but I’m sure you’re delighted with yours.. as I hope I am with mine.. That’s why I went for HKS the quality looks so much better. The welding certainly looks 10 times better than some of their competitors..304 stainless I would’ve obviously preferred, 316..but that’s not in the equation..
 
Erm, half cleaned it? Started late in the day because of the temp, and well, discovered I have a couple of stone dings ... I would say ... above the rear arches. You've kinda gotta be looking for them, but I've noticed them though.
 
Hi, if you do Bedford again let me know. Cheers
Hijacking this to say that I am going there on Wednesday so if you / anybody on this forum is going too then feel free to cone and say hi (I have a white car with a forum sticker on the rear window).
 
Dropped the GR off for open heart surgery

Car kept popping out of second gear on dowshifting and engine braking. New gearbox being replaced under warranty. 😅
I had that as well:
 
I have it on mine, I feel there's a little booming on lift off when at around 2-2.5k revs for a moment, I'd recommend turning off ese and anc as well if you can, but other than that no complaints its a lovely exhaust, loud but not too loud IMO (not asked the neighbours though 😆), most of all doesn't sound like an obnoxiously loud wet fart like some exhausts for the GRY
Well, the exhaust fitted today, really pleased with it certainly not obnoxiously loud.. I get what you mean there is a little booming around 2000 rpm .. on back off ..but to my ears it’s ok .. did a 60 mile run on different roads certainly worth the money.. when you look at the workmanship on some of HKS competitors..
 
Designed, 3D printed and mounted a Holder for a Gopro to
view/record my Rides in POV Mode not only recorded with the Dash Cam. :cool:
This looks nice. I just got a GoPro 11 Mini to my 50th birthday from my kids to record my drives… Would it be possible to order one or would you share the file at a cost? Thank you!

Removed my GPF delete and HKS Hi-Powers Spec L-II exhaust, as going to sell the car and exhaust separately. Wow, I forgot how quiet the original exhaust is... Definitely a worthwhile mod to change the exhaust ASAP in my opinion.
