HKS uses real titanium for their tips which also adds to the cost aside from the HKS name. I ended up getting a great deal and really didn;t pay to much more then what berk and FI exhausts are going for these days. Its a great exhaust that has great fit and finish and sounds like a champ when paired with a good set of HFC's. Zero drone while cruising and great tone under acceleration. CNT is a good alturnitive but it doesn;t sound the same as an HKS. CNT is more muffled and smooth where as HKS is more of an aggresive and exotic note. Keep in mind that sound is a completely subjective thing. Ark has a similar system but their's sounds terrible with HFC's attached.
