Stainless Steel Performance & Precision

The HKS GT-SPEC Manifold embodies HKS’ long-standing exhaust development expertise. Each unit is precision-engineered from high-quality stainless steel, featuring a 4-2-1 equal-length layout that delivers superior exhaust gas scavenging and optimal flow efficiency. This manifold ensures the FA24 engine breathes freely — unlocking crisp throttle response and improved power delivery across the RPM band.

Advanced Catalyzer Design

• Low-Density Metal Catalyst – Utilizes a metal catalyst with significantly lower cell density than the OEM ceramic design, drastically reducing exhaust resistance.
• Optimized Metal Composition – Achieves 2018 Japanese emission compliance through optimized precious metal ratios, balancing performance with environmental standards.
• Third-Party Certified – Independently tested and certified to meet strict emission control requirements.
• Improved Flow Dynamics – The re-engineered flange design ensures smooth transitions and minimizes turbulence at the cylinder head.

Bypass Pipe System – Pressure Control Technology

In high-performance naturally aspirated engines, strong vacuum pulses are accompanied by intense pressure waves. HKS mitigates this with a strategically engineered Bypass Pipe System, connecting individual runners to balance pressure oscillations without affecting vacuum dynamics. This design enhances Inertia Exhaust Gas Efficiency—the ability to extract residual gases from combustion chambers—resulting in flatter torque curves, improved throttle response, and superior drivability.

4-2-1 Straight Junction Super Header Layout

Unlike traditional 4-1 race headers that sacrifice low-end torque for top-end power, HKS employs a 4-2-1 “Straight Junction” architecture that delivers real-world performance. This configuration accelerates exhaust flow through calculated pressure differentials, efficiently evacuating gases and maintaining velocity through the collector. The result is improved torque, sustained mid-range pull, and extended top-end breathing—ideal for both street and track applications.
