Most knock off items are almost identacal in shape and size. This means you will get the same results in HP. (There are exceptions) The difference is in the materials used. Most name brand items use stainless steel and are mandrel bent. There could also be a difference in the way they are welded.

So even though you might get the same results at first, a nonstainless steel metal will fall victim to rust and corrosion. And if the piping is not mandrel bent then the air will not flow as well and you might not get as much horse power. In the end, you get what you pay for............fISH
