Stillen HFC and Berk CBE discontinued. Thoughts on why?
 
Just curious if you guys have thoughts on these things getting discontinued? The Berk CBE seemed fairly popular. Are makers getting out of the 370z market?

It's supply and demand. It's not as popular as the Motordyne or Fast Intentions, so they probably can't justify the cost they would charge someone and the amount of work that goes into manufacturing the exhaust. If the popularity was there, they'd be able to buy the piping in bulk at cheaper rates. As for Stillen, there are cheaper options out there so it's hard on them to offer a product that doesn't have the demand it once did, same scenario.

Well put.
I dont see alot of other brand exhaust. Most of them mainly FI or motordyne parts. Very rare that i see berks or even stillen.

I heard the same thing about Tanabe too a couple of weeks ago. I am so glad i did thorough research in person, before I chose my exhaust, and i'm a JDM fan.:happydance:

Luckily, if that's the case, I bought my Berk HFC's and CBE a few years ago. Love the sound and the fit/finish is superb!
