Corksport, you didn't?

I ran across this and said... no... I know I've seen this someplace. They didn't really...? Hope they are reselling a moroso muffler, or there will be some pissed off moroso people.

Hell... I've been gone from the forums for a few weeks up until last week. How many other threads are on this?

I saw that too a week or so ago. Its worse than a muffler, so I don't know why you'd call it a "presilencer."

kinda funny too cause i was gonna buy those from jegs, but after doing some reading up on them here, i realised that they are pretty much straight through when you get right down to it.

thats the moroso's anyway

Now what the hell CS is doing-- i dunno. But it smells like a lawsuit or at least a cease and desist if moroso finds out.

Dude, I bet they are just making their own version of that the moroso one. With some minor differences, and just used their pic as an example. From what iv heard Corksport is a pretty reputipul(sp) company. Come on guys........... think positive.

Corsport and the bringing up of their exhaust Is a damn near coincidence. Just 2 weeks ago, I learned that they have a pic posted of my FC with a fitted Brullen Exhaust system. This very pic was taken w/o my consent. Hmm...

Even if they are only using the pics that is Copyright infringement.

I used to hang out on ww.Deviantart.com and know a bit about it.

If they did not recieved written consent to use those pics. Moroso has the right to sue to have them removed.
Depending on circumstances monetary compensation may in order as well.

They're talking like it's entirely their design though. They should just be up front with the customers and let them know they're getting a Moroso product.

I like how they say "variations of the muffler design may occur". Well that's probably a good idea since they probably have no idea if Moroso will change it as they go along.
