If I went with F.I. I think the 12" res might be on the cards for me with carbon fiber mufflers for more a sleeper look. Wouldn't mind matching it up with the berk HFC's. Seems to be very high gains with the berks.
Here is the thing with mods and gains, IMO atleast. I have heard people say that have gained 15 hp/tq from HFCs and then I have seen some only gain 5 hp/tq (FI dyno shows this). I think whatever mod you do first nets the most gains as it opens the airflow to about its max effeciency. The later mods gain some but not as much as if they were the first mod you had done. This being that the flow is already close to perfect. So a HFC as a first mod will net 15 hp/tq, a CBE as the first mod will net 15 hp/tq, and G3 intake as a first mod will net 15 hp/tq. But you will not get 15 + 15 +15 when they are all done. So iwould say if you are only going to do one mod for right now pick the one that you would like to see or hear the most first. For me that was the FI CBE as it looks bad aZZ and sounds bad aZZ.
