Why is the Rexspeed O2DP so much cheaper than others?

I can't seem to find anything bad about it, and it is more than 1/2 price of other reputable brands. Am I missing something?

Thanks.

The only issue I see with it is that there is no optional second bung for a wideband, but after speaking with others there are plenty of HFCs out there that have a wideband bung before the cat, so it's no big deal.

It only has one, which from what I understand is needed for the stock O2 sensor. To do a wideband you'd need two. On the other Evo site, the vendor says that it only comes with 1, and your only option to get another one is to have a local shop weld one on for you.

because just about everything you see on the market these days are Made in TW. and as long as vendors can go direct to the source, you are able to beat the competition in pricing. Rexpeed is in tw so he's able to offer great products at great pricing.
