Default Berk High Flow Cat

I just installed one and only put a few miles on it so far but it smells like a test pipe car.

If you are using them are you finding that this goes away? Did you have a test pipe like smell to begin with? Does it still smell pretty rich even after some extended use?


Thanks.

Hmm, you are the first reviewer to report of a test pipe smell. Most people have been saying the opposite.

There was actually someone else who said he was getting a "little" test pipe smell in another thread, but I can't find it.

Try searching "berk hi flow cat" "berk cat" "berk high flow cat" and so on turns up nothing.

almost 1500 miles on mine and no issues. i agree with one of the above post about giving it some miles to burn off any manufacturing oil/grease/belly button lint/KY jelly/dingleberries/buggers/ear wax....etc, etc.

I've had mine on for only a couple hundred miles, only every once
In awhile do I smell anything but that might just be in my head from when I had the TP on. In any case its 10 times better!
