i have the blitz and love it.
I saw the hks on a wrx and i didn't like the way it exited the back of the car, it was on an angle and it just didn't look right.
Also im not sure if the hks is full stainless or not but i know the blitz is full stainless and for me that was needed b/c i live in nj and they love to throw down a ton of salt an inch so if i didn't have stainless it would of rusted like a mother.
And the sound of the blitz is just wonderful everywhere i go everyone asks me what i have done to my car b/c they say it sounds like a beast.
Can't beat that for the price thats for sure
My 2 cents

I have the HKS Carbon-Ti exhaust for my car simply b/c it looks more pleasing to the eyes compare to the Blitz Nur Spec. Power wise I really don't care. Hks sounds nice from idle to wide open throttle. I've heard the Blitz before and I don't like it.
Besides, who can resist that big carbon fiber wrapped can pointing to the side...looks mean.
HKS all the way!!!

I don't like the flimsy mounts
for the canister on the HKS. Do a search and see. I think the carbon is bling on an exhaust. Let's see, hight heat, and plastic resin? Whatever. The Blitz is a very good exhaust. But I'll probably sell mine for a titanium catback. My $0.02.

oldmansan, he asked about the hi power, not the hks carbon ti.
there is no carbon fiber on the hi power if i am correct.
the flimsy mounts you are talking on the hks i think you are referring to the exhaust hangers right? when u say flimsy mounts do u mean that the exhaust kinda moves from time to time? if so, that's just the stock marshmellow plastic stock exhaust hangers on the car.
u can get new ones for pretty cheap.

No,
sorry I'm talking about the wrong exhaust. I mean the metal hangers affixed to the carbon canister. They don't seen to be durable.

no prob san.
and the metal hangers affixed to the carbon fiber canister is pretty sturdy actually, i always carried it around just with that and they seem to be fine. Also the exhaust has been on my car for a couple thousand miles and it's still perfectly fine, hangs pretty tight on the stock exahust hangers too.
I would go with the hks, sounds wise, i heard the blitz is loud....REALLY loud....loud like my txs RFL bov =]

Actually, the Hi-power is just the 2nd gen Hyper. It is true though that the Hi-Power is full stainless only. It seems that many who posted weren't paying careful enough attention 
So, to sum up: The HKS Hi-Power makes more torque at a wider range. It exits the rear at an angle N-1 Enduro style. It makes a deep sound and is considered loud by some, fine by others.
The Blitz Nur-Spec makes the most peak horsepower. Its external aesthetic is smoother than the HKS. It is considered to be loud, VERY LOUD, by everyone with decent hearing.
Make your choice.................NOW!
