I almost jumped to another exhaust, but none fit 100% of my requirements so I was sort of stuck.
I have no plans for forced induction for awhile (two or three years at least), will wait first for the base warranty to run out and give all the forced induction kits time to pan out to those who want them now. Plus I am pretty happy with the power I have now (plus a little more I get soon), so no need for more power.

yea its a shame yalls options for a decent exhaust are pretty limited. Its either this Berk exhaust or F.I's exhaust with those fugly mufflers hanging down.

I am glad you are happy, I for one hate the "burnt titanium" rainbow of color. and think the slanted mufflers looks goofy.

and video maybe?

theDreamer · 03-09-2010, 06:18 PM

You guys are demanding, but will try to get video tomorrow and post it ASAP.

theDreamer · 03-10-2010, 09:03 AM

Finally got video: Berk exhaust, stock cats and Stillen Gen III intakes
This was taken with an iPhone since the other video on a point and shoot camera sucked.

Sounds Great.

2theextreme · 03-10-2010, 09:07 AM

Fierce!

Nitemare06 · 03-10-2010, 01:12 PM

Ill take the blame for the point and shoot failure. I was used to the volume of mine and my brothers Mustangs, so I stood kinda far away... Sounds great in person though! Nice "muscular" tone.

Togo · 03-10-2010, 01:32 PM

That is true to an extent. How hard are they with JDM engine swaps or NA-to-FI kits? Is it a safety thing or emissions? I was registered in Naples and the Polizei pulled me over and when they found out I was based in Naples, they scoffed at me and told me to get out of their sight, lol.

The "ring" is where it is at, but it is harder to get on it than you may think. I took 3 trips from Naples, IT and all 3 times it was closed to the public. It was heart breaking. Hockenheimring is much easier to access, but definitely not as much fun or requiring as much skill, *sigh*.
