Default Fake HKS

I got a chance to hear the Fake hks exhaust today. My buddy with a g35 bought it for 575 shipped and put it on. I must say it did sound pretty good. I got under his car and took a look and all looked pretty good. He said xo???? some **** made it??? and for 575 thats not a bad price. It is 2.5" and for a hot sec I thought about getting it my self to help out my little tt set up. It wasn't that loud and it didn't rattle at all. Im going to wait for another month or two and see how it turns out but if all is well I may be running this cheap ****.

definately a nice exahust. I think it sounds better than HKS at 1/3rd the retail cost.

I actually do all the work in my dad's garage. It's located in Essex, MD. The exhaust is there now. Let me know if you want to stop by this coming weekend. I think we're working on it on Saturday.

I saw them mentioned in Sport Compact Car this month actually. They recommended one of their exhausts for a 240SX.

I browsed through their site this afternoon (it's REAL slow) and didn't see an inexpensive setup. Anyone else got a link? I'm looking for a good budget system. It seems like pretty much ever catback for the Z is over $1000.
