Berk Technology 370Z Cat-Back exhaust GB 1&2 Updates!

BerkTech · 12-16-2009, 02:36 PM

Update 12.16.2009.

Facts:

1. We couldn't be happier about the sound, power output, and look of the exhaust. We are postponing the release of the product so we can make final adjustments to our manufacturing process. One bend is a tiny bit off and we need to make adjustments to make sure that we are delivering you a product that I would put my name on. Delays are just as frustrating to me but I would much rather delay the release of this exhaust and give you a product that is as close to perfect as possible vs. rush production and deliver an exhaust that has issues.

2. Group Buy #1 people have been waiting (for a long time) to get these exhausts. I hate delays just as much as you do. They are frustrating, annoying, and if we (Berk) is causing a delay then you should be compensated for your wait time. Group Buy#1 people will receive an instant $100 product credit on your exhaust purchase. The GB#1 customers have waited and I feel you deserve the product credit! This is in addition to the free shipping we are giving those of you who have purchased Berk HFC's in the past.

3. There is one active Group Buy on the Berk 370Z Cat-Back exhaust through BMS. That group buy is here: Berk Cat-Back Exhaust GB #2!!!

4. Release date: I cannot promise our end of Dec deadline at this time and it will run into Jan. We are working to push this out as early as possible but again, we will not release something that isn't up to our standards.

If you have any other questions please feel free to contact us via PM, email, or phone.

Yep, don't rush out a product that doesn't fit right. No one wants to force something to fit by heating and bending.

Yep, have had in like this since the first delay, but after the videos I got a smile on my face and glad to wait (100USD is nice also).

I REALLY love the sound and tone of this exhaust, it fits the Z perfectly.

VTalumni · 12-18-2009, 11:26 AM

Do you have any dyno results yet?

M.Bonanni · 12-19-2009, 12:03 PM

^^^Yes, but only on a car already equipped with the Berk HFCs. The combo together made 36whp.

36 seems really high to me.

For both HFC & CBE?
Probably not, considering the first couple things you do to this car really open it up. You do good intake plus HFC you will probably get similar results almost.

mpp9 · 12-19-2009, 03:52 PM

Yea I'd like to see a dyno stock and with berk hfcs and catback on the same day. 36 at the wheels is more than what f.i. got with longtube headers.

fatcat777 · 12-19-2009, 05:17 PM

I'm currently debating between this and the FI. i like the looks of the berk better a dyno results of this setup.
