lol thanks guys. Do you think it will sound better then berks?

Personal preference, buddy. There is no be-all, end-all of exhausts; from the looks of it, you will be happy with either system (and maybe a few others I'm forgetting at the moment...check my exhaust sticky thread if you want).

If you like the sound of the Berks, by all means go for it. It's your car, don't make decisions solely based on what a bunch of people on the internet told you to do.

heres why I decided the way I did, FI's and Berks are built to order, there is a wait for both. I'm one of the most impatient people i know, if i order something, I WANT IT NOW!!!! I weighed the positives and negatives of the different exhausts, FI and Stillen made the same power, Stillen looked more stock which is what im going for, Stillen shipped the same day... but as far as sound goes, I think the FI's are better.

As Phelan mentioned earlier, followed by Red370's above remarks....You can see it really all comes down to preference....Good that you ask around though...as purchasing a CBE is quite expensive...You gotta make sure that its what you want for all the money you're gonna pay....

I can let you know now, that since being a part of this forum, I have changed my mind about what type of exhaust set up I am gonna get....what I initially wanted, has changed to my current and final decision...Its all about seeing what's out there, going with what you like, and balancing out what others have to say...What may be loud for you may be not loud enough or too loud for others...

Yeah isn't that the one that's louder sounding but the db rating is actually lower?

Jamaica · 03-08-2010, 01:26 PM
