Stillen HFC vs. BERK HFC

Forrest · 04-18-2009, 04:37 PM

Jesse is knowledable you can tell, but hes arguing over simple wording and ideas wich are close to the same wich is fine BUT but he needs to do is cut out the stock boy stuff and just state his knowledge and it can be used if usefull.

I been reading the entire thread since the begining and learning how cats work, AND i did learn from jesses posts.

You just gotta keep respect to others.

I get it at work cause customers that don't know me don't expect me to be so knowledgeable....they look for the 'older' guy...not knowing that 'he' works for me, and im the one to talk to.

Enough said - we got it..........

Stillen or Berks ??????

Will both mate up to a NISMO without issue? Anyone done this yet?

Is there or will there be other choices?

We done with the bs yet? Can I rejoin this show now?

They should mate up to the nismo because they mate up to the stock exhaust without any issues and so does the nismo. I've just about made up my mind on which one I'm buying...

Everything is very close. Design is similar, they use the same core and make somewhat similar power.

Link? Also is the power difference negligible?

It's a federal mandate that prohibits on-road cars from eliminating the catalytic converters, and California has a visual test, where other states do not.

This would pertain to any high flow cat or test pipes, etc.

That being said, they will pass a sniffer test, but the official word is that they are for off-road use only, and that's the only condition we sell them.
