Ebay's HKS exhaust clone

Hey has anyone heared anything about the exhuast on ebay that look just like the HKS Hi- Flo? I usually never by "knock offs" and probably won't buy this one just wanted to know if there was anyone who has expiranced it...

I was bouncing back and fourth in between the real HKS exhaust and the Injen titanium exhaust.

Heres the ebay exhaust in question:



Thanks for your time and help guys

Yeah I had no intention of buying the ebay exhaust... I saw it and it held my intrest for about 3 secs and then I moved on... I just got back from a deployment to the middle East and I'm ready for the next project car...

i have heard this exhaust in person. sounds like ****. the funny thing is that the guy tried to lie to me and tell me it was the hks exhaust. the funnier thing was when i pulled next to him with my hks.

Haters will tell you all kinds of crap about this exhaust, most of which arent true. I got this exhaust bc I plan on going TT in the next 6 months, and didnt feel like buying two expensive exhausts in the same year...lol I was pleasantly surprised with this exhaust. Has been great, no horrible drone, and when I lined it up next to a HKS at a meet, other members couldnt tell which was the HKS and which one wasnt, Ive even had many people say they like the sound of this one better than the actual HKS. Its a great value for the money, Ive had nothing but compliments and love that I got this exhaust to tie me over til I get my TT exhaust. Haters will always hate cause its not "HKS" Theyre just mad that you got the same thing for a third of the price.....haha And Beebo.....where in Texas do you have to worry about road salt???? hahaha

I agree that it sounds sik. Its kinda funny how the only people you hear say negative things about it are the people that dont have it. Everyone that Ive talked to that has the XO2 says they love the exhaust......That should tell you somethin right there. And people that say "Never buy knock-offs" Cmon, who can tell me they've never eat cereal that came in a bag instead of a box at some point in their life.....
