HOLLIDAY...CONGRATS and WELCOME to the CLUB...thanks for the update and the write up....

Although you were the first to order in our batch and the last to receive, you have to admit that you had that "It pays to come in last" feeling when you fired her up.

Too bad you gotta wait til winter passes to take her out...If I was in your shoes, I'd be out in my garage three times a day just cranking her up and then Revving the hell out the Z until Spring!!!!

Enjoy my friend, you've earned it

^^ Irony is a b$tch! HAHA! ^^

I knew it would be worth it in the end but I did not think my jaw would literally drop like it did! HAHA! I was grinning from ear to ear! It is truly amazing and one of a kind paired with the HFCs.

This is one of the worst winters Germany has had in a long time, go figure! I finally get the exhaust and now have to wait until spring Oh well, now I have time to lower it and do other mods with my down time.

Anyone having issues with vibrating noise? I installed these myself about a year ago and recently noticed noise after 4k rpm, almost sounded like I have a engine in my hatch. I took a look yesterday and saw the heatshield was very close to the pipe. So I bent the shield. I took it for a spin and didn't hear the noise at 4k but not sure if the noise came back higher up since it gets really loud.

I'm still enjoying the cbe, was thinking of switching cbe but after spending time underneath my z i remembered how I dread working underneath it.

Thus far no problems...Still sounding as good from day one...The only sound/vibrating I hear around that RPM range is the imfamous "Hiss" on deacceleration...which is noticible since I have the HFC's.

Dam...I really don' t know how you guys can do it...Just going a couple of days without driving my Z drives me nuts....the longest I parked her was for about a week, as I rotate her around every once in awhile...but even at that, I was finding excuses to head to the market to pick up things here and there just to hear her roar!!!!

I have had no issues or problems with the Berk Exhaust CBE/HFC Combo since its install in September 2010, and the sound has seemed to settle in quite nicely....as mentioned, the Z sounds exactly the way it should with this combo....It really matches the car, and I have gotten a lot of comments about the sound....Great on the street and at the track..


Love the "Cold Start" warm ups in the morning...Don't know about my neighbors though...but no one has complained thus far...If they did would tell them to .... (Note: My Neighbors are all family)...Everyone on my block knows when I leave and when I get home....

I've really enjoyed it a lot and have seen a great difference in power and performance at the track when comparing the before and after...The recent addtions of the Stillen G3's have made it a lot cooler...Planning to pick up some more goodies after the holidays...Hopefully my wife sent my wish list to Santa and I get that 25 row oil cooler in a few days.
