I know I'm not helping by saying this, but every replica hks I've ever heard sounds like that. I wouldn't worry too bad, but ask someone with an hks rep and see what they say

Hard to hear a "rattle" in your video.You can hear a noise from the back
pressure when you let off the rpm's.I too have heard this on HKS replicas.
Its just the way it is.You pay for what you get.I'm guessing if you cut the
resonators open,you will see a difference in the baffles compared to a
real HKS..
