listen right around 13 seconds, thats what a Stillen CBE sounds like when you really get on it, music to my ears. Sounds like a damn F1 car.

One question now that you guys are talking about Berk and Stillen...

If power was the only criteria to evaluate and both setups considered using Berk HFC's, which cat-back with produce more power? Stillen CBE or Berk CBE..??

So my question really is which setup would produce more power, Berk CBE/Berk HFC or Stillen CBE/Berk HFC...??

The thing is both sound really great to me with the Berk being more stock looking but that's about it...

Appreciate the input...

Thanks Red370, that does sound really nice. I cant wait to look at the tests on the 2 to see power differences.

So far, independent dyno wise, the Stillen and FI have made the most power, averaging between 15-20whp per, havent seen any from the Berk setup yet.

Yesterday my car with Berk/stock cats went on a dyno (Dyno Dynamics) along with shawnal's (Alan) Z. Alan's car has the FI with large CF cans and also long-tube Injen intakes. He made 5HP more than I did, both pulls were within 1 hour's time, no temp difference.

Alan - 6MT - FI/Injen LT intake/stock cats 289hp
Steve - 6MT - Berk/stock intake/stock cats 283.8hp

I'll post my graph shortly.
