@Chef-J, Jason, Jake - everything has been fixed. Didn't take long at all, took them about 3 hours to replace everything.

Now the fun part... to bring justice. They weren't very smart. I'll keep you all updated.

Did he send you pictures or did you take a look at it n person? It's definitely not hard to tell between them..if no welds, no trade. A lot of people like x02 exhaust actually. Some say it sounds better than the hks. But definitely no trade if anything sell the ti-c first than buy something else.

i had pmed vboi88 and again he said "HKS" and i replied with any way i can tell on the exhaust if it really is an hks or not, give me a call. so for now no reply, or call/text from him. i asked the guy whose selling the exhaust to get me close up pics so i dont have to drive out again, but if i have to i will...

and yah people are saying that the x02 is still good and it's still a true dual... but i told myself that i wouldnt really cheap out on anything i do. the greddy single ti-c was on the car when i bought it so even if i did sell it.. idk how much to let it go for nor do i have a stock exhuast to slap back on :/

on a side note.. the guy wants $100 plus my exhaust since i have stock y-pipe if it is an hks true dual.. but im guessing its not an hks because the burnt tips are faded away (or is that normal) ill check for welds but like you said no welds, no trade.

^ dude don't check crap......its a shady deal, just forget it......

as far as exhaust goes.............what are your goals for the car? you going with HKS because of the looks? sound? or are you trying to get some performance....

Performance wise:

you have an NA car and the Greddy Ti C you have is WAY lighter than HKS or any other dual crap out there........

if you wanna improve anything get an after market Y-pipe with bigger plumbing to match the Greddy.....

If you don't have Hi flow cats or test pipes then........well ummm....pff....

now if performance doesn't matter...... and ya just wanna have a dual, post a youtube sound clip kinda guy, ooh la la look at me, then have at it...

whats your goal???

hola, didnt forget about you! idk if you saw previous posts but ill try and swing by next week! honestly im not doing it for performance, mostly the looks.. i just want a good true dual. and hks is what i liked.. whatever exhaust im looking at now sounds good as well. not too loud, but nice and subtle.

Do you work around 75/635? I saw one z with nismo wing/greddy exhaust parked one of building there...

Anyway, sounds like you are not that happy to dealing with him or buying it. Idk...
I agree with jack man, take your time and buy what makes you .

You can buy one more greddy ti muffer and fab that make it TD.

When I bought mine we checked the welds and since the exhaust is Tititanium you can take a (cant think of what the tool is called) and buff the tip and the sparks that come off of it should be blue instead of a reddish color
