I love my berk exhaust, if u want to be a little different go with berk. if u want what most others go with, get fast intentions or ark. they all dyno within a few hp of each other, and they all sound great.

If you want a better sounding exhaust AND the stock look (just better), then go with the BERK. If you want dual angled canisters, I would go with F.I. over ARK. I am not a fan of the side branch resonators................

So stock looking, but better sound = BERK. Sexy, sporty look, and good sounding = ARK (I would choose F.I. though)

I prefer the ARK sound, sounds a bit more burly

I agree, search the forum there are a ton of sound clips for exhausts. if u have any meets near you I would go listen to what others have. good luck
