Default Berk HFC Gaskets?

Do the Berk HFC come with gaskets? My doesnt come with gaskets so I ended up using them gaskets from the oem cats. The install was a bitch but I got it done with a lot of help from a friend. I love the aggressive sound. But I dont know if its leaking or not. 3000 RPM and up it sounds like I have a mini turbo sound. It sounds like a leak but why only at 3000 RPM and up. It does the opposite. There is this rasp noise around 2500 RPM. How can you tell if there is a leak? Thanks guys.

They come with gaskets, they should be tapped on the inside flap of the box in a plastic bag. Can be easily over looked. Check the box flaps that you cut open.

Mine only came with the gaskets that connect the HFC's to the headers. I didn't get the gaskets for the other side of the HFC's.

Sorry May be I should have read the whole post. There are only 1 set of gaskets.

I was listening the sound clip from DDM and its making the same noise. I guess its normal. I guess the stock gaskets work fine. I will check the box again. I will swap them out if i find them.

Hi Jonnie,

They are taped on the flap of the box. I've had one guy who had to do some dumpster diving to dig up his box. Found them still taped up inside.

Thanks Fusz for providing the reply!

All the best,
Berk Technology
