While I'm not saying its a 'Good' system because I haven't heard sound clips I do think its funny that original HKS owners keep saying its crap don't buy it! Maybe if some members put it on and dyno'ed and got more sound clips could you really tell. Until then who knows.

the tips look like ****. but i'm a very picky person

i didn't buy hks for the power...

a dyno would be useless unless the same car dyno'd the real hks and this fake hks right after the other. i doubt anyone will do that.

i dont think anybody really buy exhaust for more hp (no matter what the mfr. claims)...atleast i didn't.

so what is left is sound and looks. let's face the thing looks EXACTLY like HKS (tips arent as blue as the real thing), with less than half the price including shipping.

as far as sound, i have not heard a negative feedback so far. i did msg a few folks on ebay who have purchased this exhaust and from all the ppl that responded, everybody seemed to be liking the sound it puts out
