Berk CBE and HFC Install and Review

Hi, I am looking to getting just the Berk exhaust alone. I was wondering if I would have any of these issues. Any information would be great. I am new

Just so you know, the *hiss* I hear is perfectly normal and to be expected when using HFC or test pipes. I don't think you'll hear this *hiss* when doing CBE only.

My fitment issue isn't that big of a deal, the fix I did was dead easy. However Berk responded to my email with a suggestion to clean the exhaust rods so they will not slip. I'm going to do this tomorrow, and reinstall the hanger bracket back to the factory location and will report back with my results after I put a few more miles on the car.

I strongly recommend the Berk exhaust. The performance and sound is second to none.

Yea man that Berk sounds great. Been searching almost every exhaust on YouTube and the Berk gives you that sound like it should have came from the factory and I have heard it gives you the most power increase compared to others. Btw how much was the install?

Free... did it in my garage.
The CBE is a really easy install. Heck the HFC aren't that bad either, just time.
