Default Review on Berk Test Pipe

Hey guys.

haven't posted in awhile and thought I would give a review on the Berk test pipe for anyone that wants to know about it.

I bought it off the Berk website and it came in around 5 bussiness days. The install went pretty well, but took a little longer then i expected since I was having trouble taking off the o2 sensor clip ... The fitment of the test pipe was perfect and I had no issues with it at all. I got no check engine light and have not had one for the 500 miles I have had it on. Just a waring for anyone that is going to get a test pipe. It smelled really really bad for the first 20 or 30 miles. It does not smell as bad anymore and I really don't even notice it. My butt dyno felt a big difference!! I have a stock exhaust with only a test pipe. I love the sound of the exhaust now. It has a G35/350Z sound to it now and sounds very nice! i recommend it to anyone that likes that sound.

Overall I am very happy with this product !! def. worth the money!

Are their headers good also? I hear that the stock header on the s2000 is one of the best. How much HP would you gain with the berk header?

Everyone likes it that gets it. I havent read one bad review. I love it for the money i think its deff worth it. Your exhaust tone will change and get louder(atleast mine did) and after your ecu learns it you will deff feel a power increase.

for BERK Technology

i put the header & test pipe on, along with my single exhaust... definately felt a big difference. from "street dynoing" i would say probably 10-15whp.

no that sounds like crap .. he removed the resonator which makes it sound really bad... With just test pipe it will sound kinda like a 350z/G35
