ZforMe · 04-12-2009, 04:17 PM

We've seen plenty of people using the BERK HFC's with great results, but now that Stillen has there's out, which to buy?

hmm there is going to be some slight competition now..

I would love to see some dyno/video/sound comparison with these products. Which ever gets to me I will more and likely purchase.

RCZ · 04-12-2009, 05:59 PM

I held off on buying the Berks for a reason

I guess this is great because at least for me, its going to push me to get better stuff quicker

If the Stillen had been available when I started, I probably would've bought it just because every other major mod on my car is Stillen, and it's nice to be all one manufacturer. That said, I suspect the real-world difference between the two to be minimal.

I can't believe these parts are so expensive! lol.

RCZ · 04-12-2009, 06:55 PM

We are going to run out of bolt ons soon

I think they are expensive because the car is brand new one they the car has been around a while part prices should go down..

i was going to do the same but i had a great price on berks im waiting for it to arrive
im guessing the same on hp output as well

i highly doubt there will be a difference in the two. either way, this is a great mod with excellent gains. i guess its also cool to say u have a full Stillen bolt on tho. I mean, u guys were on point with this car. everybodys buying ur stuff!!

The parts need to come down in price, I agree... but coming out of Porsche-land, these prices suit me just fine ! If you haven't already, ask for best price off-line / PM, and I'm sure you'll see some improvement over list

... so we drive! maybe also focus on regional events once we start building critical mass of 370s !

Re Stillen vs Berk, IMO not expecting differences in sound or performance- same core... not even worth testing for difference in my view... differences boil down to having same brand, knowing it will fit, price and support

Yeah, I would love to see dyno results on a 370z, there website is claiming 9hp gain, but is that for the 350z??

Others on here have been getting "almost" double with the Berks
