Default Is this a HKS Dragger Exhaust - Inputs from Exhaust experts

I picked up this exhaust recently. This is a direct bolt on to a 2 door GSR. Its brand new and the overall build quality is very good ....not the cheapo ones I have seen before. Its all mandrel bent with a solid looking muffler
This looks like a HKS dragger exhaust. Seller was also not sure what kind of exhaust was this.


Question is - Is there any HKS logo on the HKS exhausts? If not, is there a way I can find out what kind of exhaust is this?


Also, I am not so keen on keeping the muffler with that wide tip.......Planning to take out the Dragger style muffler and put a Magnaflow one.
Any idea how much is a decent price for a that kind of a brand new muffler?

IIRC, it is supposed to have HKS and I think even DRAGGER on the tip of the canister.

Yeah...I know someone with a HKS drager on his ITR and it has HKS and Drager etched on the tailpipe...also the Drager used mild steel piping for the b-pipe and the one you pictured looks to be s/s. So my guess is thats its a copy...not a bad one though

that looks like a airmass exhaust, which is basically a hks ripoff. the piping looks too homemade to be good ol' hks.
