Look no further, the Berk header is AWESOME! Fit, finish and Bryan is excellent to work with...

i love mine, i had some ticking and an exhaust leak at the flange, and even though it seemed to be a gasket failure, and i was overly paranoid, he replaced the header for free! (under warranty of course) Berk is a great company, i would buy from them in a heart beat

I had the ceramic coated header. Fit and finish was perfect. It's a great deal.

So how was the install? Do you have to undo a mount and jack the motor up? I'm putting mine on tomorrow.

Berk header VS J's racing header VS Mugen.

1.
2.
3.

If you had to rate them, what would it be?

I'm unsure with the Berk but I just installed my PLM the day before yesterday and didn't have to jack the motor up. The main issue I had was getting the front end of the vehicle high enough to twist and turn the header in from underneath. Use of a lift would have made this job cake. Also, getting that heat shield bolt off closest to the firewall was a booger.

Put the Berk on yesterday; check out my build thread. You for sure have to jack the engine up.
