Turboxs Catback, real or fake?

So a week ago I had purchased the turboxs cat-back exhaust from summitracing.com. After receiving the package yesterday I had some concerns in regards to its authenticity. Every other turboxs system I have seen has had their company name on the mufflers however mine is completely blank. Also with most tsx catbacks the burnt part of the tips is about 1-2 inches long however mine is burnt 4-5 inches. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Exhaust did come in a turboxs labeled box including a turboxs "manual"... just confused here.

hrmm, minus the lack of naming on the mufflers, looks fine to me. This is one of the later models. TXS is on teh forums here, so it might be worth messaging them

That's also what confused me, all of the hardware looks identical except for the branding. Wondering if the tips being burnt too much resulted in being a manufacturer defect so they didnt brand it? No clue but im hoping for an answer soon, I was hoping to install it this weekend.
