HKS rep. knowledge

So, no more than 5min i read the thread about how HKS is a flake and not gonna make a turbo kit for our cars. So i decide to give them a call and find out when their Hiper Cat-back exhaust is commin out to raise my spirits. I knew from people that went to the SEMA show that the cat-back would be out in June sometime, i just wanted a more precise date. So there i am tlakin with the rep. and he says its already out, but on a back order. Aside from the back order i say thats awsome. I double check to make sure that its the full cat-back and he says "no." I was like, ok, do you know when the full cat-back will be out. He says, "there wont be one because of price or something, i dont really know why." I'm like, well i guess i was miss informed about that, and he was like "yea."
Right now, im not believing what this guy has told me. I mean, they already had one made for the 4-door, on their project car that featured the no longer turbo system. Then direct confirmation in April at the SEMA show that it will be out "in a couple months."
What do you guys think? Is this guy a new staff member that doesnt know anything? Or, do you think they pulled a bascally completed product out of production because of price?

Thats who i talked with. It just doesnt make any sence. I mean, they even said at their booth at the SEMA show that it WILL be out in a couple months. Im still not convinced.
