Sooooo...first of all, to all who are considering installing HFC's on your car, make sure you sure the cats bolts in wd or whatever you wanna use because it was a BIATCH!

My mechanic who's my buddy did the passengers side with no problem.....then the problem came on the drivers side. the top bolt was stripped and no possible way of getting it out. Hours and hours of trying to get it off, didn't work....had to actually cut through the drivers cat to get through unfortunately. I said the hell with it and go for it. So still the screw wasn't coming off....had to wait until today to mess around with it some more. Finally it came off.....the sound is so great. The stock exhaust tone is there, just deeper...the growl is awesome, the hissing that everyone spoke about is noticeable but not something that you can notice on the inside...driving with the windows down, the growl is so awesome and deep when switching gears around 3k-4k! I love it....i can't see myself getting an exhaust because this is just so perfect. An intake is next on the list! Here's a difference, i had a few different videos but these are the two i combined.

Enjoy!

Feel any difference in performance?

 

Sounds great! Those Berks just kick. Thanks for the comparison vids. Extremely helpful. So you don't hear the hiss from inside? Do you notice it when driving and if so when does it occur?

 

sounds exactly like if you were to remove your resonators. a bit too raspy no? you should some vids driving around ( not from inside)

 

You know, iPhone videos don't do the car justice....ill take a few different position vids cause from directly facing the exhaust it sounds raspy but it sounds so amazing.....I love it. Sounds perfect IMO with stock exhaust

 

Congrats man I also love my berk + stock exhaust setup! By "hiss", do you mean the "air surge" sound when you gun it? For my car, it sounds like I have a turbo...lol

 

Yeah that does sound awesome... Enjoy yours as i will mine haha

 

You know, im not one to step on the gas too much, i like to enjoy the exhaust sound and cruise lol. But im sure in the higher rpms theres more power...

 

Do itttttttttttttt....

CEL go away?

 

Nope....I think its from the intakes I forgot the code that it was but it wasn't for the cats...im gonna bring it in Monday to get checked out....

 

sounds mean! love it!

 

thanks man. it definitely sounds amazing driving down the streets. The sound just evolved so much...I'll post more videos soon.

 

Always contemplated Berk HFC vs Tanabe Medallion because I wanted to keep somewhat of a stock sound.

Those are too raspy in my opinion. Doesn't matter how it sounds in the inside. You bought it for it to sound good on the outside right? lol. At least you're happy though.

 

It sounds really good from the outside.....I'll post more videos

 

sounds real raspy to me but if you like it thats all you. have fun with the future mods
