A few days later they call me and tell me the reason why my engine went out was because one of my Berk HFC's exploded which caused the engine to suck up the metal from the exhaust back to the engine. It's probably one of the craziest explanations ive ever heard. Is the even possible? Or are they full of ****? Theyre still covering the damages. Any suggestions?


If this was the actual case & with the exhaust being aftermarket, then I am really surprised that they are covering it. I would think it was something else. You are pretty much getting a new car basically. What yr is your Z & how many miles did you have on the original motor?
