The cats ship right away. I placed my order April 14 and had my cats on the car a week later. Still hoping for an early July arrival on the CBE. My patience will run out if it goes past that.

Aside from the fact they don't reply to emails like normal people, they have made it worth the wait with the group buy price, military discount, and the $100 gift certificate. I could have canceled my order but I don't think there is an exhaust that meets my needs like this one.

What good is a group buy price, a military discount, and a $100 gift certificate if they refuse to deliver their product and ignore you all the while?

Seriously...the fact that no one from Berk has posted in this thread after all this time is inexcusable.

Half the price for an exhaust system is hard to beat. No other manufacture can come close to that! It sucks but this is the exhaust system I want so I am willing to wait. I know others will be impatient and chose a different exhaust. Then later on down the road when they have so much drone inside the cab and rasp on every rev, they will be selling their system on this forum so they can buy a BERK!

Although your insinuation that every other exhaust out there has drone and rasp is wildly inaccurate, I do give you credit for being a cockeyed optimist. That said, half the price for an exhaust system that might very well not exist is very easy to beat.

Enjoy your wait. Let's just hope you actually receive something for all your patience...

Isnt the wait for F.I CBE around 3 months also?

The lines of communication are always open with F.I.

Being based overseas myself. I found it to be the most important factor in my decision.

Don't get me wrong, If we lived in a perfect exhaust world I would of gone for a more stock looking exhaust like the berk. Only because of the way the cops act in my state.

I don't mean to knock berk. I also don't mean to live in the past. However after the first group buy, I have no conferdence in the shipping and quality control in relation to the cat-back system.

Once again being based overseas, with a weaker dollar to the U.S and high priced shipping costs in general. I found it to much of a risk to ship down under based off berks track record to date.

Hi EVL370,

Just wondering where you got the FI exhaust installed in Melbourne.

Thanks Mate.

Cheers,

No worries dude. Let me know when you get it installed.

Love to check it out. I'm still tossing up on Invidia or Greddy...

Great news guys....I finally got to hear the Berk Exhaust in person, and I am 100% satsified with the sound and feel overall....Mad shout out to our forum member g96818 who is out here in Hawaii. I'm currently on a family vacation and linked up with him to take a look and hear the Berk exhaust on his Z....He showed great Hawaiian Stylin Hospitality by taking time out of his busy schedule to link up wth me in Pearl City on such short notice....It was hella great, and I even had the opportunity to go on a cruise with him down the highway where I got to get a true feel and hear the sweet sound of this badboy opening up the Berks exhaust....

Absolutely no Drone...g96818 did not have HFC's and was running stock cats and the exhaust was sweet...Real quite til the 3K range, but at WOT, let me tell you...words can't describe how smooth and great this exhaust sounds...on top of that there was ZERO RASP!

Mahalo once again g96818 for linking up with me

..Mad shout out to the370z forum....If it wasn't for this site I would not have learned so much, and more importantly I wouldn't have been able to commuicate and meet up with another member....How lucky is that huh? I own a Z back home and I got to ride in one while I was out here in Hawaii...

FYI...the 370Z is a rare find out here in Hawaii guys...I have been out here for about four days now, constantly on the road and the only way and time I got to see one in person was by appointment...Thanks againt g96818....If you or any other forum member should ever swing by Guam hit me up...

After today and thanks to g96818's hospitality, I am super

to get the Berks...I definately know first hand that despite all the set backs, it is going to be worth the wait!

I'm just curious if there's been any movement with these exhausts. Are they starting to trickle out?
