How come the two j's racing clones (Berk and plm) don't make the same power as j's? The first post says the j's makes some great numbers but the clones bolted up don't even come close. Are those hp estimates on the j's tuned result numbers? The clones are exactly the same unless the stainless steel finish adds more hp or something.

FYI pipi_outlet on eBay took my offer of $315 + 30 shipping, making it $345 shipped.

Every dyno I've seen with the Berk and PLM made good power over stock, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Berk is a J's Racing clone? First time I heard that. Where did you hear that?

Since there's no info on the 5Zigen header, I found this (double posted from JDM tuning forum)

This comes after an exhaust so you don't know what it would do by itself.

I have a Ricks header (Mugen Vers1 Replica) for AP1 and i felt a good gain in mid range but also had Comptech intake, TP, and Spoon flashed ECU but when i did install the header i felt the difference. Now I have AP2 with J's and I feel even more power i will post dyno once i get my Flashpro and tune it.

IMO not really and the results have been varying greatly, I would stay away for the time being..

x2 on this

This is typical for any replica. Sense they keep the price down with cheaper parts and less quality control.

i just figured i would give it a shot esp if u lowball on ebay and pick it up for like 350ish or even lower. i have had berk and buddy club on my 00 the buddy club felt better than the berk but it got messed up when i totaled the car and i figured i would try something new.
