Bisimoto Header replicas

[Restless]

Was looking online to see how much the Hytech replica headers go for since I'll be selling mine once I get my bisi header and I found this. Crazy how people are already trying to copy his design.

I saw the same thing the other day. I had my evo phone and added a new app,
the scanner for prices,I spoke into the phone and said bisimoto header and got the same results you did. they look ***.

Wow thats lame. If they are really in the states Bisi could sue them into the stone age.

bisi's looks like they flow way better than those

Yeah I hope Bisi does something about it, but I'm sure people will just keep making them

Who cares

The Idea behind the bisi headers is that they are trailered to your build plan.

Good luck emailing them and getting a spec sheet to fill out.

They are generic headers with the same shape as a bisimoto header, and my guess is that they will crack very easily.

Even with bisi's professional welders doing the welding the original batch of b series headers has problems breaking welds.

It has been fixed since then, but do you think the ebay guys care?

I doubt it.



Knock off's are an awefull thing, and our hobby would be significantly better off if they did not exist. They do exist though and if you support the industry the best thing to do is avoid them and kindly discourage others from purchasing them.

Exactly. If people support the companies that make knockoff versions of original, quality pieces, the people that make the originals will stop wasting their time. Then we'll be left with the inferior parts... then nothing at all. Because unlike the originals, the knockoff artists aren't constantly trying to re-engineer their parts to make them better.

That header really does look sad. Like a car from one of those Chinese companies that is so poorly made it can't be sold outside of China... though it looks like a Mercedes Benz... just... like one a 12 year old sculpted.


Both Bisi and Hytech could sue them for using their names in their advertising. Especially since they are practically representing their product as being one of those brands.

The sad thing is, most ignorant tuners see the name, the look, and the price... and they choose that over the part that's actually worth buying. Even worse, that crap design probably DOES give at least some power... so essentially, they could say "I'm paying 1/3 the price and getting half the power. I'll take it!"
If it weren't for Bisimoto, they wouldn't have a product... yet their knockoff is hurting the very company that provided them with the design to copy!

Thank-you to everyone for the support. My name is Julio and I am the newest team member at Bisimoto. If you want to know more back ground about myself I started a introduction tread on this forum just do a quick search of Julio@Bisimoto

Just like Ghetto_CB7 stated the Bisimoto headers are custom designed for you individual and unique motor setup. We will engineer the best header to produce and squeeze out every bit of power you can get. I will also pass on the information strait to Bisi about this copy wannabe!

If anyone has any questions feel free to pm me.
