Only difference between some test pipes are, some have built in O2 CEL fix, and OEM cat shield tabs.

I'd just get the berk, built-in o2 fix and nice weld quality. The t1r has the tabs for the heatshield but my tabs broke off almost immediately after so they're pointless.

they are all the same so best bet is berk...

FYI make sure the match the exhaust and the TP size. 60 to 60mm and 70 to 70mm

If you don't want to increase the drone then T1R will be a better bet cuz the pipe is resonated.

i still vote for the high flow cat over the test pipe, 1whp/1wtq difference, but that extra hundred dollars saves the planet...

I've used a resonated TP and nonresonated TP, both reduce drone over the stock Cat.

Asura also makes a testpipe in 3" or 70MM, as well as a HFC in both sizes.
