Berk Technology Cat-Back Coming Soon!

I'd be pleased if it's below 100db and with minimal or no drone at all.

Yes, no drone or very little drone would be good, I plan on doing some long road trips this summer.

Whether the exhaust is loud or not so loud I don't mind but I agree fully with the above .....please no lower frequency resonance (drone).

I second this... more torque please... and a decent sound...

I feel ya. I had the Topspeed pro-1 on my 350z (If any of you are familiar). It was way too damn loud. The drone would make your internal organs vibrate. I switched to the Nismo after about a month.

Don't get me wrong. I love loud but it's gotta be the kind I can live with on daily basis. Maybe the Berk will be a perfect balance.

I like the Bassani exhaust and the way it sounded on my 350z. No drone, but was loud when you got on it, and it was x-pipe, and it made good power. It was only an issue with a bend over the passenger side rear lower brace where it would hit when the suspension would compress. Something like this but with better quality obviously would be awesome ! I would be in assuming it doesn't cost as much as the GTM exhaust which is what i was gonna get. something 1,100 or less would be nice

P.S. If it has rasp the gtfo !

They are working on it over the weekend to try and get the rear muffler section done.

Nope, not yet. At least I haven't. Not sure if Berk already has one in mind or not. Hopefully we can do another group buy like we did with the HFCs .

I cant wait untill the finished product is revealed, I'm really looking forward to video clips and dyno results. I hope it's good because I'm very interested in this exhaust, I have yet to buy one for the Z and this might be the one. Thanks guys.

Maybe there could even be a combo deal on the hfc and exhaust along with the group buy !
