Look in the Performance section of the 2IS forum. There's a whole thread about it. It's called the "D5 Concepts Exhaust". It has the fart can design like the HKS but is nothing like it.

I recently sold my HKS Hi-Power to get my car repaired so I was able to compare these two. The HKS was twice as loud, hangs much lower, tips are bigger, pipping is grey, and simply better quality. The HKS sounds better and deeper too. I'm just going to have this exhaust on a month or so, to then chop off the mufflers and do a quad set-up.

Thanks for the info man, just swapped out my tanabe for the hks and its a lil louder, i like it but now i think i cant get the mid-pipes because it might be too loud. How much does the D5 goes for?
