HFC: Crawford vs. Kinetix
I know the majority of the people are running Crawfords, and I know they are good. But what about Kinetix? How many of you are running those and what are your experiences with them?
I can't afford to pay $500 for new Crawfords and I've been looking for used ones for about a month with no luck. Crawfords used, sell for what I can get Kinetix for new. Why the big price diffrence?

I have Crawfords and no problems thus for (minus the occasional rattling from the cold against the heatshield).
Although I will say this, I have heard a few times of crawford's mounting brackets tearing from the cat on MREV cars (ESPECIALLY used crawfords) and causing an exhaust leak and very raspy sound. So I would advise against buying used. Also, but an engine damper (like Stillen) to minimize the amount of engine movement so you don't run the risk of the cats tearing.
