Just swap your exhaust back to stock when the time comes.

I believe someone asked about that setup. There will be some extra fab work that is required, but nothing Bryan can't do. Give a call up to Bryan @ Berk to find out what you want and what he can do for you.

Just curious, are any of you guys going over 100db at the track? I just installed my Berk 3" and it is loud! haha... There is an SCCA event soon that has a 100db sound limit and I'm just curious if I'll probably stay under that or not

The cat-less one is definitely over 100dB...I think the HFC might be around 100dB. I say this because I thought the HFC version was super quiet compared to my test piped one.

Thanks for the reply! I installed the HFC one and love it, it seems fairly loud though, great build quality and fitment. Very pleased with it, guess I'll find out if I pass the sound check in a couple weeks

It does quieten down after a little time. I actually liked it better when I first installed it.

i just put on the exhaust on my car. With the test pipe, OMG it makes a world of differnce.

Well, at least to my butt dyno it does. Feels like it wants to pull forever. And the sounds, i never giggled so much in my life after the first time i went WOT.

I was the complete opposite hated it at first but after a while it quieted down and now i love it. In the beginning i was going to get rid of it as it gave me headaches but a week or so of driving and it quieted down enough that i wouldn't want any other exhaust now.

Well one thing cool about it compared to the other 3 exhausts I've ran. With the Berk you can keep it quiet when you want but at WOT it roars and sounds amazing. Whoever buys this wont regret it. Plus everyone at Berk is amazing especially Bryan. I've been purchasing their hfc's, testpipes etc and now im running the HPC header with the 3" exhaust and the setup is flawless. Nough said..
