Berk Technology Cat-Back Coming Soon!

BerkTech · 07-09-2009, 10:14 PM

Measured up the tips on the bench. There is at most a 2mm difference, or 5/64".

We are no stranger to doing difficult to manufacture dual exhausts. Here's one of our systems that we do for the Toyota MR2.

The oval tips definitely look great.

I was thinking the same thing, much better "flush" look. Minicobra? If not, would love to know the spacer amounts.

Hey guys, yep that's my car

Those are 20mm spacers on the rear and 15mm on the front. I have the Eibach springs installed with the SPC adjustable camber arms. I'm not sure what the camber is at the moment, I'll have to look that up, but they did return it more back to stock. After the Eibachs were installed there was noticeable neg camber, prob not bad, but I just wanted to get some better tire wear. With the adjustable arms I can always ad more neg camber for the track.

I didn't get to see the exhaust installed on the car, but i was able to see it, and I can tell you that the work they put into this system is amazing, the quality and the craftsmanship of the welds and braces are awesome.

Power and weight numbers soon please!

Exhaust is looking great. I look forward to your next update!

Berk Technology is coming up to Vegas this weekend for Formula D and if my exhaust fits in the trunk of their BMW then they will bring it up for me! If thats the case, expect dynos by mid-week next week.

Caravanshaka · 07-10-2009, 07:44 AM

woot, yay for dyno's

Get some similar pics of it installed on your car DDM, at least then we can see if it was Minicobra's bumper that is mis-aligned, or if the production exhausts need a slight tweak to get the tips even. I personally like the way the passenger side tip is flush with the opening.

I don't have a lift so not sure I can get that same angle, but I will do my best to show how the tips sit.

I'm starting to slip to the darkside (FI exhaust). Berk, we need vids & dynos!

Haha, yeah, I was going to wait but I'm not sure right now.

Caravanshaka · 07-10-2009, 04:26 PM

he's working on getting the exhaust to DDM for dyno's, and I know DDM has a good camera. Only so much you can do when your in Cali and the car you are doing this for is in Vegas, lol
