The only thing I can't stand is the extra fumes that you end up inhaling at every stoplight. 'Feel like I'm losing brain cells slowly

Losing brain cells but getting high is worth it..... jk. That is my only complaint. I'm used to it already.

i've been running A TP with OEM exhaust for about a year now and like it a lot.when driving regularly it sounds just like stock and when you go WOT it's about 20% or so louder then stock(so it's not loud at all).hope this helps.

What test pipe would you guys recommend to use with the oem exhaust?
I have the T1R and you can use your OEM shield to cover it up.

The latest version of the Berk TP.

That's what I have..and that's what I'm selling this weekend because I can't take the smell anymore

Sad because I love the sound, power, and weight savings.

I thought about that one but here in FL we don't have emissions checks anymore so we don't need the shield to hide it. They just take our "word" that we haven't changed anything...... and of course I would never change anything to do with the emissions of the car

The smell is an issue for some people and I noticed the other day after a long drive I smelled like it.

Odd, I'm running the berk tp to a single T1R.. I honestly dont smell a thing. Neither do passengers... I know if I really get on it ppl behind me do though.
