“Orpheus” receives Berk’s HFC !

Alex, that sounds really good. Much more aggressive than the CBE alone. Glad to hear that the install went reasonably well - 2 hours doesn't sounds bad (or expensive). Do

Do you notice any increase in power? I know the first exhaust mod usually produces the most, but wondered what the ol' butt dyno is telling you.

Dave,

The Berk HFC has really changed the dynamics of this exhaust, Orpheus feels like a beast from down under when I step on it, but very tame when not, that being said at idle Orpheus has also developed a dark, almost sinister low growl “lol” that I really like. Orpheus does seem peppier across most the RPM band, and a bit more responsive at the throttle, I can now say I’m done with this end of my mods, this is what I wanted to hear.

Can’t wait to drive it some more and allow it to mellow out and get even better!

Hope you get you stuff from F.I. soon, I’ve been keeping taps on new F.I. postings hoping to see some good news for you regarding you ordered exhaust, keep me posted.


Alex
