XS Power Manifold?

My friend is trying to sell me a brand new turbo manifold and O2 made by a company called XS POWER for $250, I never heard of this company and it really looks like a megan manifold. Tell me what you guys think. I apologize for the crappy cell fone pics!

Actually I heard about them, I purchased one myself. Unfortunately I did not get what I order.

Originally I want it to order the Megan racing header that Logic performance advertizes, unfortunately the shop that I ordered from did not ordered the correct ones so I got the same header that you have on the pics.

I never installed mine becauae some friends told me that they don't make power. I paid $220 shipped for mine and I just sold them to a local guy(Mathew) for $150 with a blue 05 Evo .

He is about to install it on his Evo so I can ask him to let me take some pics after gets installed. I personally re-order a new set of Headers this time(DC sports), at least I have prove that the DC sports made 10.9WHP on a basic modded yellow evo(Turbo Magazine)

i wouldn't buy it, it's made by a chinese company that copies other peoples designs cheaply since china has no copyright laws, but the quality is not the same. you'll probrably be welding cracks every week. they also sell a copy of AMS' $800 front mount for $150 with a lower ic pipe on ebay, but you know you get what you pay for. in AMS' vendor forum they have an article about it you should read, it's locked at the top of their forum, check it out.

just don't forget, it holds true for 95% of purchases:you get what you pay for! there's a reason their stuff is less than half the price of everyone elses!
