Stillen CBE owners regret?

I think there is a post on here somewhere (but I can't find it ) where a couple of guys do some passes with Stillen and Berk together. My understanding was that the Stillen and Berk were very similar in sound. Beware of a ton of BS on the subject though

Yeah....I've seen that vid. Quality isn't that great, and both of the cars have HFCs, so it's really tough to tell what the differences would be if it were just the CBEs.

I am soooooooooooo glad I waited and got the F.I. CBE. I do not personally like the look of the stillen setup...mainly the tips (although I know it can be changed, but why stick more money/work into a kit).

My F.I. CBE turns heads, gives me great gains, AND looks awesome IMHO.

glad to hear that, but how did this turn from a Stillen thread to a "Love my Fast Intentions" thread?
