Looks pretty nice to me, but who knows how it is in reality. I'd like to hear a sound clip too.

Another happy customer:

"I have been enjoying this exhaust for three months now. I had the same doubt and question about this product before my purchase. Anyways I was really impressed and satisfied when I received this exhaust from a dealer. It was exactly same with the HKS exhaust ( ~ $1800.00). I thought it is not really the same product. But it was the same one. You instantly save $1200.00 or more. After an installation, I was surprised about HP gain. No dyno yet. But I am sure it gave my Z about 8 ~ 12 HP gain at 5500 rpm or above. This exhaust isn?t so loud, but it has strong noise tone as RPM approaches to the red line. I have no issue with this one. When you install, just make sure that things are tightly installed and all gaskets are inserted between joints. I positively & strongly recommend this product for your Z. If you have any question, let me know."

Get your facts straight. eBay doesn't make or sell parts. It's an open marketplace for anyone (from individuals to real deal manufacturers) to buy or sell products.

As far as the magazine comparison you refer to... I am sure, in many cases, "authentic" products outperformed the knock-offs. However, this isn't the case for all products.

To the OP... There is so little hp to gain from an exhaust on our cars, unless you plan to go FI. If you are staying NA, I would definitely give this a shot. If you plan to go FI, there may be some risk. However, it looks like the resonses you have received from other buyers has been quite positive.

I also got this exhaust three months ago.previous set up greddy sp2,generic y pipe,stock mid pipe.after these mods I didn't feel much difference.I actually went straight to the distributer before purchasing and it looked good and sound was great on his Z.Anyways after installing I got into the fwy and did feel a big difference lost a little torque but gained a lot at top. These are old pictures without the caps will try to post new pictures later this week.

haha that **** is going to sell like hot cakes. Now makes me wish I seen this before I bought my hks.

it would be funny to go to a dyno day see someone with the same "REAL" set up as me and end up with the same dyno numbers. And see the look on their face when I tell them how much my set up cost.

and for those that don't know meGan Racing started on ebay now alot of people use their stuff. Hey You have to start some where.

BUt at the end of the end, I still love my HKS, which I've been pulled over with and got a "your car sounds great" from the cop.

The only exhaust I would rather get is the AMUSE. Someone had it at the Meguairs get together, that **** sounded amazing.

A lot of people are saying no and a lot of people are saying yes. I want to know what it is like compared to the HKS. As long as it is similar in sound then i might be interested in getting it. I dont want to shell out the 1.8k for the HKS because im a cheap *** haha.
