Anyone recognize this exhaust?
Found this on craigslist locally today. Seems like a pretty solid deal. No idea what the listing means by hyper Motorsports (I'm guessing a typo), but if the guy's to be believed it doesn't drone and sounds fairly decent. Upon texting him, he said it was a Texas Speed Catback he got from CorvetteMods. As far as I can tell, that doesn't exist, but visually, this thing looks identical to something listed on their site, and the price listed matches the one he told me he paid. Only thing different appears to be the logos on the exhaust tips are absent.
What are your thoughts? I figure even for a cheap Chinese piece of crap it isn't a bad deal for both the X-pipe and axleback.

Haha I've looked at that everyday for the past week or two. I'm curious why he swapped it out for a Corsa if it didn't sound bad or have any drone. Could have just wanted something different...or it could sound like garbage or not fit that great. I too couldn't find any results for Hyper Motorsports. Looks like a Chinese Borla knockoff to me and I'd assume that's what it was unless proven otherwise. There's another one for sale in the classifieds here (but brand new and full stainless/polished). Only thing I could find was that some people have had fitment issues with the ones that used to be made (OBX brand I believe). If you're itching to buy an exhaust asap and have 100% stock pipes, this one isn't the absolute worst deal being that it includes a Corsa x-pipe too.

Looks like the setup that J&D Corvette in Bellflower sells. The setup from them does not include the X pipe.
My brother has this on his C5, sounds ok and does not drone. His car has the 3.15 differential. A car with a 2.73 diff may have some noticeable drone.
