check out the bottom underneath the muffler on the canister. should say JASMA and a certain number

also, on the actual tip, it should have Mugen Power engraved in (see pic)

yours is real. some came with two tags depending on model. the other tag will have the mugen insignia, the other will have the jasma insignia

your good to go man. lock this thread and tell the wife to enjoy.


ek twinloop 2 stamps (you can see the mugen power insignia)



dc2 r twin loop and bpipe (1 stamp on muffler)




and the photo rino put is the type r db8 (4 door type r) muffler. which will have two stamps
