Berk Technology Cat-Back Coming Soon!

Celinicus · 05-30-2009, 01:43 AM

Just got around to listening to it. Sounds very mice.

I'm interested to hear what the final product will sound like. Keep up the good work Berk.

I have already installed the HFC's and I am very pleased of the sound. Can a rep from the vendor tell me how much it would be for the exhaust (zip code 77346). Thanks!

I think Mike from DDMotorsports ***might*** know a guesstimate price.

Nikon FM · 05-30-2009, 05:58 PM

Sound is great! Waiting for X-pipe vid and comparitive dyno chart.

Thanks for all the effort on this.

I tried talking to them today out on the track and they still haven't come up with a ballpark price on the cat-back

Well, I guess we'll all just sit here waiting

Celinicus · 05-31-2009, 11:46 AM

Their HFCs are competitively priced so I would hope that the exhaust would be too. We're not gonna see Amuse pricing here for sure.

drisko · 05-31-2009, 03:56 PM

Man, I really can't wait for this exhaust to come out. Assuming the dyno #s are decent and the tips don't stick way out, I'm going to buy it ASAP.

rreign · 06-03-2009, 09:01 AM

Mike, when you finally get the exhaust, will they have already done a dyno run with the CB only or are they going to do it in conjunction with the parts you already have installed? If they don't do the dyno themselves, I'm sure many of us would like to see the results from a stock point of view and with the HFC's. Is that something that you'd be willing to do?

CBRich · 06-03-2009, 09:49 AM

I agree that it would be nice to see some dyno results on a stock setup first. But a full setup dyno is also good since most of us will end up with a full IHE setup in the end.

M.Bonanni · 06-03-2009, 10:24 AM

Berk did not do any dyno testing when they had the car. What will happen is when the exhaust gets here I will do a baseline dyno as the car sits now with the HFCs, JWT intakes, and stock everything else. I will get a new baseline because 1. I have never dynoed after the pop-chargers, and 2. It has gotten a good 40 degrees hotter in Vegas since my last dyno. Once I get the baseline done I will install the Berk cat-back and do another dyno to compare.

rreign · 06-03-2009, 10:43 AM

Sweet, thanks for letting us know what you had planned. Can't wait to see the results

Celinicus · 06-04-2009, 10:30 AM

Has the idea of an h pipe gone out the window? Have they decided to just go with an x pipe? (I apologize if this has already been addressed)

M.Bonanni · 06-04-2009, 10:47 AM

If the X pipe works well I am sure they will just stick with that. If the sound/gains aren't as expected maybe we will see some H-Pipe testing.
