Maybe someone who's had both on can give a better answer. But from what I understand, Berk is more "what the car should have sounded like from the factory". Pretty quiet at idle, has a nice roar in the lower rpms and harmonizes with the VQ at WOT.

F.I. is a bit more exotic and has a deeper tone at the lower rpms. With stock cats, it's definitely louder from what I've read and heard.

To be honest. You can't really go wrong with either. Myself, I've decided on going with the F.I. set-up non-resonated with stock cats. I want a clean aggressive sound and don't want the hassle of hfc's to get it.

But the Berk/HFC combo is downright nasty. It definitely made me think twice.
