Berk Exhaust Production with X-Pipe

labk888 · 04-04-2010, 11:36 PM

I also would like to know if these are available to the public yet. I am trying to decide between Berk HFC + Berk CBE vs FI HFC + FI CBE. Has anyone experienced
both in person ?

got the car running friday just need to put in the last stub shaft before i can actually drive it but the differential is mounted in the car so i could put the back half of the exhaust on. had to finagle the bolts a little during install but nothing out of the ordinary for an exhaust. fit's good and the tips line up great. gave the stickers to my buddy to throw on his jetta we are ricing out.

Edit: also if the F.I. is louder than the berk there is no way in hell i would buy it as i like not being pulled over or having my neighbors call the cops.

The FI is louder if you get the big CF cans.

Sorry folks, no pre-mod baseline on this dyno.

Results: 294 rwhp 236 Ft-Lb torque

That's pretty impressive...especially coming from a Mustang Dyno.....I know that you didn't do a baseline...but do you really feel a difference on the butt dyno?

Is this the only mod you have on the car ?

Also in regards to the shipping problems being early; I don't know what the deal with that was but I was #2 on the list and mine was packed the way they all should have been. Don't know why I lucked out like that but I'm not complaining either !

Nice, Steve. Ill probably be getting mine re-dyno-ed beginning of next month. Bleeding a bit in the pocketbook, this month...

MightyBobo · 04-06-2010, 03:12 PM

BTW, I called Berk about my exhaust being slightly to the right - they are sending me a spacer and 2 new gaskets, no questions asked. Thumbs up to them.

Pretty cool, I asked berk 3 weeks ago for washers and gaskets. I believe I may get it this coming week.

You're one of the fortunate ones...Guess who ever was taking care of shipping your package took good care of it....Berk put out an announcement that all the misalignment on the exhausts were caused through the shipping...poor packaging I guess...They announced that this was what caused the hold up for the second group of customers that were supposed to receive their exhaust in April....Curious to see what type of improvements they made with their packaging
