???really??? I could of swore that they were 200. I don't doubt you tho, you are the expert. Soo what would be the point then of going with Berk HFC instead of Fast Intention?

Apparently the person who did the write up for that dealer needs to re check their sources. The Berk cats are a Magnaflow core. Part# 59956 and that is a 300 cell metallic cat. We used to use the same cats up until December of 2008.

Since then we have moved to a different supplier for a number of reasons. We like the cats we use now better because they hold up better to the abuse.

Trip, the CBE sounds awesome, man! I like the burble at idle.

nice brother!

That sounds awesome. Does anyone know how the 18" will sound with stock cats? This video has convinced me. I will be getting the FI CBE as a Christmas present for myself. Planning to also do the Stillen CAI unless you all know of better ones that cost less. I am not sure about the HFCs. Someone told me they can be a little tricky to install.

I would love to hear it in person so I can make a decision on a CBE. I noticed your Downey license plate. Do you ever make it out to the Socal Meet in Cerritos? I might try to get out to one of those sometime.

I'm one of main members always there. If you want to come? the next meet in a couple of weeks 1st Sat of the month.
Come on down so you can hear it in person or join us this Sat for the Angelus Crest cruise?

sounds much different from new to broken in... deeper and IMO better... though both sound nice.

How long was the break in?

Trips · 08-23-2011, 07:08 PM

The break-in is a couple hundred miles at least.

and the first post pics are fixed

going to be in Vegas Sept 3rd so hopefully I can make the October Socal meet. Do you know if anyone there has the Top Speed exhaust? It's pretty inexpensive, might be worth listening to for me also.

I'm not aware of any with that type of exhaust so far.
Will see you in Oct. then

Couldn't wait. Pulled the trigger on the CBE w/18" resonators today. Getting the resonated HFCs too

Methodical4u · 09-09-2011, 03:55 PM
