Berk CBE is sounding good. However, I noted resonance at 3700rpm under 3/4 throttle in 2nd and 3rd and 4th gears.
A bit of trial/error brought to my attention that it was the glove box, specifically, the huge fat stack of owner's manuals and tire-lock in it. I removed them to the compartment behind the passenger's seat, and the issue is gone. It now pulls through the revs as far as I am taking it at this point of break-in without any vibration. It's a nice exhaust, does what I want, and looks great. Car felt a bit peppier after installation. |

I bet it did Import! I know mine has been pulling nicely through the gears! Areas that I had felt hesitation in before have smoothed right out! :)

Yep, fit and sound are very good. I am glad I did this. It makes the car very docile under 3K rpm, and an animal above that under moderate or heavier throttle. I like it. I just wish I could find an "active" exhaust like was on my Z06, but that's probably not available in this price-bracket. This Berk CBE is almost as good at that, though. Very nice for cruising. There is a SLIGHT SLIGHT bit of low frequency noise at a sustained 1900rpm in 6th, but I am not cruising at 55, so I don't care, and it's not bad, either. I would not call it drone. Just a frequency I am not fond of. It is only heard, not felt.

Good Morning Mr. Happy and all the other Z early risers! :hello:
Looks like it was just the tire that was damaged by my infamous pot hole battle; the rim appears to be doing fine. I've just got to get an alignment, and I'll be good to go. Looking forward to this weekend; there are two Coffee and Car events - Houston and The Woodlands charitable event. I'll take some better pictures of the new CarbonSignal ducktail too. That thing is awesome. I've actually gotten compliments from non-car people here at the office. Looking forward to getting out and doing some non-commuting crawl driving. :tup: Have a great weekend all. |
I don't blame you. A couple of days is ok, but more than that? Nah. Not for me. I'm sure you're looking forward to seeing the Mrs. and your boys! :)

Good morning Z people. Long time since I have had any Z action with vacation and all. Will be doing some wrenching on the Z this weekend. The day before I left on vacation I "finished" up my ART pipe install. During testing I had an exhaust leak at the Demon bolt location. I need to take the drivers side off and reseal it.
|
Does not sound like fun but good luck. :tiphat: I haven't done anything to the exhaust because it is supposed to be covered on my bumper to bumper.
|
I have had my coffee, and as the Newbie, I will try not to be stupid...Don't bet on it..
Happy Friday, still haven't really driven the 370Z day... But I have all weekend with no rain.....Finally. More coffee... |
Hope you bribed your wife to let you drive it :driving:

It's perfect. My wife puts tons of miles on the Truck, and then gets in the Z car to do all her other stuff... I will always have a Truck, a Modern Sport car, and the Crazy, insane Z/28... Not much more.The extra registration and insurance doesn't justify another toy.. But how many do I need ? Oh No...Second stupid thing i have said...A collection would be nice.. |
