I am about to purchase an hytech header which the seller claims to be an authentic piece. However, with so many fakes floating around, i am a bit skeptical of purchasing a used unit from a private seller. Does anyone know if there are extinct markings anywhere that can authenticate the header?

Thanks.

 

should say right in the middle of the runners where it mounts to the head. hytech should be laser etched in.

 

This.

Plus it should be pretty obvious if it's fake. My flange on my knockoff hytech is pretty rough. They look like the lasercutter operator was drunk.

 

Thanks.

 

This is a real Hytech header:
