Default Berk test pipe

I got flashpro and im convinced i should buy a test pipe. What are yalls opinions on a berk test pipe 63.5mm? Comes with a "cel fix". Need help asap. I have no other mods. 100% stock. Does the brand really matter?

I have a 70mm berk test pipe matched up to my j's racing exhaust. I have zero complaints about it fitment was spot on and no check engine lights.

I have stock exhaust, so would it be better to have the 63.5mm TP? do they both fit?

It's always best to match the test pipe diameter to your exhaust so if you're running the stock exhaust you should go with the 63mm. If you plan on upgrading to a 70mm exhaust soon then go with the 70mm and upgrade both at the same time

So what are your opinions on it? Will it give me a lot of rattle? Or raspy sound? Or will it sound normal without a problem?

Test pipe will stink. Literally, you will be able to smell it.

63.5m will match your system better. These pipes are cheap and you can change the diameter later if you fit an exhaust that can benefit from the larger diameter. Look here as these are commonly for sale in both diameters. Since they're just pipe there's nothing to wear out.

Start soaking the bolts in PBBlaster now so you can remove them later.

Like chuck said, it will stink but I don't think it's That bad. I had a catless subie and It wasn't bad at all and after a while I didn't even notice it. It should add some volume and a little rasp. I don't think it's going to be a huge difference sound-wise but I've never heard the stock exhaust with a TP so I'm just repeating what I've heard
