Berk Vs F.I cat back system question?

Agreed, any high flowing exhaust needs a good intake system. I'm currently ordering the injen intake in black.

I can only find 2 videos of berk cats and fi exhaust. None are taking off.

The stock intakes on our Zs aren't anywhere near as limiting as the stock cats/CBE are.

I got my Cobb accessport yesterday and I logged my air intake temps and they were only 8 -10 degrees over ambient temps so they do just as well as any aftermarket intake on keeping temps down. I put in K&N drop ins so Im sure they flow better too. I will logg my MAF but Im not sure what the numbers will mean, I need to PM modshack and see how the numbers shape up. The one thing the aftermarket intakes are doing that the stock isnt is they enlarge the MAF section a tad that tricks the ECU into adding more fuel or something like that.

The factory intakes are very efficient and are effectively cold air intakes since they source air from the same place that the G3s and Injens do (outside the engine compartment). They flow very well and are only a restriction after about 7,000 RPM.

True dat and above 7K rpms we are probably on the the down swing with power and should be shifting by then. I need to find out when the 7AT starts to loose power in each gear.

Any idea what the MAF numbers are trying to tell my dumb aZZ while Im logging them? Im not sure how to interpet the numbers.
