The only visible change I'm likely to make before then is installation of the carbon fiber B pillars - I bought the pry tool and plan to attempt replacement this weekend.

Berk exhuast, you already let the cat outta the bag.:p

Aniceh, if you have any doubts about installing your b-pillars, call someone for help.

I figure I'll check it out on Saturday so if I'm out of my depth I can hit up the local dealership for assistance (or replacement clips, since those seem like the most likely thing to break).

Yep, Berk. I gave the ARK DTS a look, but it was heavier and more expensive, with lower gains, so Berk it is.

where'd you find the gain info for all the exhausts?

aniceh 04-02-2013 11:36 AM

Exhaustive searching. I think ARK estimated DTS gains of 12-14 whp.

Edit: no pun intended. :p

My notes are at home and I don't remember exactly, but it was a little more. Something like 14-16.

Yeah, it was damn near impossible to get actual specs on that system. There was no dyno data and I think the weight came from a buyer, not the manufacturer.

aniceh 04-02-2013 12:13 PM

I'll give Tony at F.I. props here - he lays all the data out for you to see. I wish the other manufacturers would make it so easy.

Most exhausts are going to be within the 12-17 window of hp gain +/-2. So really you're looking at Sound/Looks/Cost/Labor for this car.

eastwest2300 04-02-2013 12:13 PM

a berk exhaust? :icon08: wowww...
