Is this a HKS exhaust
Hi,
I purchased a "HKS" exhaust of an ebay seller. There was only the one picture and normally I wouldn't of bought it but it was about 3am and the description sounded like he new what he was talking about, I put in an offer and he accepted it.
Before I start a return I would just like to clarify what I already believe, that this is a bog standard cheap as chips exhaust and not a HKS.
There is no branding, anywhere. All the pictures I have seen have branding.
It has a universal clamp and the overall feel is just cheap and shoddy.
Any help would be great
Here is the ad http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Imp...72.m2749.l2649
Subaru Impreza WRX Turbo 2000 Sti HKS Turbo Back S/S Exhaust System
Subaru Impreza turbo back s/s 2.5" exhuast system made by HKS,
Good condition 2.5" bore with 4" tailpipe
Good quality system in good clean condition comes as decat downpipe with centre and back box
Sounds awesome

Thought I recognised the sellers name,I think a few members have had bad dealings.
His eBay feedback negative % doesn't look too bad but 10 neg in 12 month isn't great either.

I have had a few dealings with him in the past and promised myself never again. He seems to be a nice guy and willing to do and say anything to keep a good score on ebay, which is why its so high. But he messes up orders constantly!
I have started a return, I didnt want to just send it back because i wasnt happy with it, I wanted to make sure it wasnt a hks and have been scouring the net over the last hour or two looking at picures.
The magnex link was a suprise, thanks for that

Nah not replied yet. But its only been a day.
I didnt pay the full asking price he wanted for it. If i had 300 or so i would have a full custom exhaust fitted. I have heard of MIJ, they have a good reputation.
First though i am after a esl, thats what im saving for.

Thats a TSL firestorm back box, magnex centre and not sure on the down pipe, a friend had the back box fitted to a similar system and sounded good it was loud but had a good tone to it.

Lol, I am still waiting for a courier to collect this.
First courier he said would come and collect (TNT) got hacked and couldn't collect. I thought he was lying but apparently they have been https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/tnt.co.uk
The second courier never showed (UPS) but he has promised they will come on monday. Funnily enough I think he has already sold the exhaust as he sent me a label and its going somewhere else up north if i remember correct.
Fun and games.
