Anybody bought from these guys? CKS performance?
I've been checking their products and videos and they seem like they make a great product (Xpipe deleting the secondaries and resonator). And it sounds outstanding.
Anybody from the US order from them or know if they have a US distributor or would we have to order direct?
Also, would something this be easy for a reputable exhaust shop to copy and do? I'm thinking yes but don't want to cheap out on stuff like this.

Don't. They are super over priced, TERRIBLE AND SELFISH customer service, and if you EVER have a problem they don't give 2 ***** about your concerns. They are in England and most everything that you would want to buy is available for 1/3 the price in the US and/or directly from manufacturer.
If you need to return and item due to a defect on their part, be prepared to pay for the shipping of the item to you, then you back to them, plus a restocking fee.
They are run by a thug group of Middle Eastern and Eastern European guys that are laughing all the way to the bank...typical shop shop gang that is untouchable by us in the US if we have an issue with an item purchased from them.
Take it from me, personal experience.

I've bought from them back around 2011 or 2012. Mufflers for my c350. nice tips, but seemed more quieter and about $1500 to 2000 from what I remember; but for the job you want done; hell no.. just use a local shop or even Eurocharged. But any exhaust shop can do it. As long as they got a good welder I'd say.

Check out Mike's power pipes for secondary cat and/or resonator deletes in straight or h-pipe. Quality will be considerably higher than you will get in most exhaust shops.
Haha...I see you already are checking out Mike's power pipes.
