Where is the cheape$t place for HFC's

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has found the berk HFC's anywhere for cheap. I found them at http://www.tcsmotorsports.com/beteni3507in.html for about $500(includes shipping).

Thanks
-Will

I might be selling mine if you don't mind them having a couple hundred miles. For some reason they seem to be rasping/buzzing a little with my Magnaflow exhaust and it is not really the sound I am going for. I would be willing to do $440 shipped once I have them taken off next week, assuming that takes care of the sound. Sucks, because the power is definitely there. Let me know if you are interested.

I heard Berk raised their prices to match FI, someone correct me if I am wrong.

Berk can be had for about $500(includes shipping) from the place I mentioned above. The FI's are $550(includes shipping.

I think there was a group buy once apon a time ago for the berks for $450.

Yeah I know you can get them for cheaper, but my point is, if you go directly to FI and Berk they will both give you the same price. 550 correct?

You are right, but I can't find anyone that resells the FI stuff. I can find Berk at other e-tailors, but FI you have to go to FI.

Both are great and I would put the Stillen in the bunch as well. Get what you can at the best price if possible. If you plan on getting other FI or Stillen exhaust parts then it might be worth it to stick with their HFCs. Personally I get the one that has the best price. I would recommend getting an aftermarket exhaust/muffler along with this because the stock muffler is a POS especially when you have HFCs. Mine buzz all the time when I first step on the gas. Irritates the crap out of me and makes my car sound cheap. This should be remedied real soon once I get that part on Wednesday, Max , and get a muffler afterwords if everything works out.

Got the borla to pair up with it. Once I get the HFC's and Popchargers I want to do dynos stock, all three mods, then flash with all three mods. I'm hoping to get at least 35hp off the three mods then even more with a flash or cobb later.

I meant the welding finish seems more professionally done.
I went with FI because they intall their own part and it seems more
reliable and also Tony had better customer service (my opinion).
When I was debating Berk & FI, I called at least 4~5 times to get in touch
with some one at Berk, however, Tony answered all my calls.
That was first reason I chose FI over Berk.

Also, 2nd Amplified Lou recommend the quality and Yes, he was right.

3rd, Berk only sells their products and need independent installer.
They recommended 2 places and they charged $250 ~ $295....
I was little surprise to see that amount. So I went with FI who only charge
very minimal.

I'm guessing you are out of California, right? I'm doing a self install out of the midwest, but if I were close to FI I would probably lean toward them.

I set up a groupbuy that can be found in the Premier Section for premier members only. Cheapest price on the net for sure.
