Greddy Ti-C

YouTube - Greddy Ti-C on Nismo

Technically the tips are about the same size as the other exhausts and it sits up underneath the car a lot more than the FI exhaust so "cops" will see less of the exhaust. Not to mention the extra resonators make it one of the quietest exhausts to get but is nice and deep and throaty when pushed over 4k RPMs. It's an amazing exaust but ultimately it's your decision. I'm just giving you the hard facts that you may be over looking.

My 2nd choice would be a GTM or Greddy exhaust as a tie.

My 3rd choice would be FI. Great sounding and performing exhaust but it sits too low for some people and the waiting times to get this to your house are ridiculous in my opinion.

Do you have HFC or Test pipes with your HKS exhaust?? if so how is the rasp/drone?

There's no rasp or drone right now with stock cats and Stillen G3 and no VQ hiss either. I'm sure swapping out the cats will give some hiss though. I'm awaiting Motordyne ART pipes right now and supposedly there's no drone or rasp either. The only regret is that the tips are too easy for somebody to steal. Two tiny hex screws on each tip. I'll probably make the tips permanent with a torch.

Actually when I did my reserach on this forum...Berk came out on top with a Dyno'd number of 36WHP with HFC/CBE combo...

Exhaust Name: Berk
Quality: Great..Welds and Pipings are awsome
Fitment/Looks:Perfect...No issues with fitment...Mine was from the 2nd batch...Has stock look and Pipse DON'T STICK out from rear bumper...Has a nice flush look...Tips are beautiful
Sound: As Matt put it..."EXOTIC" a perfect 11 out of 10... :bowrofl: Really though this exhaust sounds amazing IMO....

Judge for yourself...Here's a link to my vid

As mentioned earlier...all the exhausts that you posted on your poll are great exhausts...It just all comes down to what you want and your preference...They've all got different styles which makes them all unique...as you can tell by your Poll and the F. I. Exhaust thread...F. I. is one of the most popular exhausts out there...If you're looking for a more stock/sleeper look, then your choices will be narrowed down.

Best of Luck!!!!

Somehow this thread has turned into "what's your favourite exhaust" rather than answering the OP's question of what meets HIS needs. FI is definitely not what he is looking for in sound/looks. :twocents:

IF your not gonna get HFC or Testpipes. The best sounding exhaust is hands down ARK.

HKS ftw...
Sounds even better with F.I resonated hfc's.
No rasp, not loud compared to others and sounds aggressive. Just perfect. Extremely satisfied.

I agree... what's with the long wait? What if I buy it frome some of our sponsors here on this forum? Don't they already have them in-hand?



Wow Bolio... I need re-consider Berk. That look is almost stock. But the sound is sooo sweet. That's the stock sound I miss about by G35C, but a lot deeper and more authoritative. I just hate what they did with the stock 370Z exhaust sound. I can't even hear it from inside the cabin while driving. In your vid, it's even captured on an audio recording.

However, I did read somewhere on here, that there were some quality fitment issues with Berk initially? as well as bad customer service and long wait times? Does this still hold true today? And what if purchased through a sponsor, do I still have to deal with Berk directly for issues or do I still have to wait as long as I would for F.I. to purchase one?!?!?

That's ok... I welcome all your opinions... in the end, it helps me decide what I will get. As for F.I., though I like how it sounds, too much bling, sitting low, and the price are what's concerning me...

Right now, am debating between Invidia, Stillen, and Berk.

All three are winners, but for the money, I vote Invidia. It sounds sweet, looks awesome and is the most affordable.

Agency Power makes a great exhaust :tup:

You want the Berk. CBE with stock cats it's very very nice and stealth at low rpm. No drone, sweet moan.

With Berk HFCs added it sounds like an exotic Italian car.

:iagree:

From what I've heard, Berk got their issues together...Its true that there were a lot of problems with the 1st and 2nd batch as far as timing....Keep in mind that this was when the product first launched, and they had a bunch of issues with their supplier over seas...Their biggest problem was communication with members that ordered....but they fixed that issue and when it came down to it, they took care of all of us with discounts and promo-offers....From my understanding, they were planning to stock up on these exhausts so that they could ship out on order...Give them a call ask for Bryan or Laurie...if I'm not mistaken "Rob" is the one that was last monitoring the forums...

The one thing that is a plus with the Berk besides its stock look and awesome Growl is its Exclusiveness!!!! There's not many of them being sported out there as in comparison to other exhausts.
