HKS Exhaust Joint Pipe
2013–2021 Subaru BRZ / 2013–2016 Scion FR-S / 2017–2020 Toyota 86
14011-AT001
Overview:
The HKS Exhaust Joint Pipe is a precision-engineered upgrade designed specifically for the Subaru BRZ (2013–2021), Scion FR-S (2013–2016), and Toyota 86 (2017–2020). Positioned between the primary and secondary catalytic converters, this joint pipe addresses a common bottleneck found in the factory exhaust system. By increasing the pipe diameter and optimizing its shape, the HKS Exhaust Joint Pipe enhances exhaust flow efficiency, reducing backpressure and supporting improved engine performance.
This component is ideal for enthusiasts seeking to maximize their vehicle’s exhaust efficiency, especially those running bolt-on turbo kits or other performance modifications. It offers a straightforward way to unlock additional power and responsiveness without compromising reliability or requiring extensive modifications.
Key Features:
The HKS Exhaust Joint Pipe incorporates thoughtful design and engineering to deliver tangible performance benefits:
- Increased pipe diameter from the stock D54 to D60, significantly improving exhaust flow capacity.
- Eliminates factory dents that restrict flow, thanks to a smooth layout with a larger bend radius.
- Reduces exhaust pressure, which can contribute to increased horsepower and torque.
- Designed to fit perfectly between the primary and secondary catalytic converters without modification.
- Constructed to complement bolt-on turbo kits and other performance exhaust upgrades.
- Maintains factory mounting points and clearances to prevent interference with other vehicle components.
- Durable construction ensures long-lasting performance under spirited driving conditions.
Construction & Design:
The HKS Exhaust Joint Pipe is crafted with precision to replace the restrictive section of the factory exhaust. Unlike the stock pipe, which features multiple dents to avoid contact with surrounding parts, the HKS pipe uses a larger diameter and a smooth, dent-free design. This results in a larger bend radius that minimizes exhaust turbulence and backpressure.
Its robust construction ensures durability and consistent performance, making it a reliable upgrade for daily driving as well as track use. The design focus on fitment and clearance means installation is straightforward, preserving the integrity of the vehicle’s exhaust system.
Installation & Fitment:
This exhaust joint pipe is a direct fit replacement for the factory pipe located between the primary and secondary catalytic converters on the specified Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota 86 models. It installs using existing mounting points and hardware, requiring no cutting, drilling, or special tuning.
- Direct bolt-on installation
- No modifications to surrounding components necessary
- Compatible with factory catalytic converters and exhaust system layout
What's Included:
- HKS Exhaust Joint Pipe (D60 diameter)
- Installation hardware as required
- Instructions for proper fitment and installation
Ideal For:
This product is perfect for Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota 86 owners who want to improve exhaust flow and support increased power output, particularly those with bolt-on turbo kits or other performance enhancements. It suits daily drivers looking for better throttle response as well as enthusiasts focused on track or spirited driving.
