Berk Vs F.I cat back system question?

crbn_fbr · 04-02-2010, 08:04 PM

I have the cf mufflers and 12" resonators. The "drone" at the rpms people refer to sounds smooth and deep, in no way annoying or a bad thing imo. Guess people aren't used to an exhaust that sounds like it means business. Never had a passenger that complained for the record either.

But I would say the best thing about the sound is when shifting gears. You hit it just right and get that burbling sound in between shifts.......pure sex!

Berks were on my list when shopping, they just took too long to get in the game and my patience to replace the horrid stock exhaust was getting the better of me. Good thing F.I. was around!

I do like the Berks sound too, just not quite as aggressive for my taste. But everybody is different. In the end it all depends on what sounds best to you, and which setup you prefer.

I was sorta worried in the week or two prior to ordering my FI TDX CBE. But after reading every review and excessive thread stalking I decided the drone issue was way blown out of proportion. It seemed people wanted their cake and to eat it too. u know? i want 18+ HP and I also want my car silent on the highway, and I also want my car to sound exotic and too weak, but I want it to sound like a V8. hey guess what? If you want your car to have more "balls" then the crap stock setup, then you better make sure you have a set as well. Maybe you should have modded out a Honda Accord since the Z is just too loud for you. V-TECH!!!!! hahahaha. I know I'm gonna catch some heat on this one, especially since I have yet to hear the exhaust in person. OHHH my... did I just reveal that? Oh well, like I tell my girlfriend, at least I'm honest baby...and u like it...
