I've been saying this forever. I believe if people started cancelling their orders Berk would have produced the exhausts 4 months ago. It's either that or risk losing a very loyal 370Z crowd. Although I did not go with FI, their customer service made me seriously consider one of their exhaust.

Berk has posted more on the forum in the last week, then in the last 6 months, so maybe people will start receiving their orders soon. My exhaust (Boombop Shop) took 2 months to build. The difference is I spoke to the same person everytime I called and they sent me pictures of the build. I shipped out and will arrive on Friday. I will post pictures and videos soon.

Do you know how many other people they were building exhausts for?

I spoke to the shop and he said that they were only taking 5 orders at a time because they don't want the wait to be ridiculous. My exhaust is the first one that they've made since their prototype. They tweeked it and made it better. All I did was pick up the phone and asked them if they would build one for me and they agreed. I will have the exhaust on Friday and will post pictures and videos as soon as I install it.

I think the difference is your exhaust is made here in America where it is much easier to track where as Berk is made in god only knows where by a supplier.

I remember all of this mess with the first group buy. The first time around was somewhat forgivable given that they were still setting everything up and doing quality checks, this is inexcusable. Besides I would much rather have an exhaust I know is made here by quality welders not some second rate shop in BFE.
