hey so i read all of the exhaust threads but didnt see anything on the Berk Exhaust system. I currently planning on buying the Asura 70 mm with TP, but im curious if anyone has used this or heard how this exhaust sounds. At first i thought the whole exhaust was Titanium, but then i realized its just the mufflers and the piping is Stainless. it weighs only 26 pounds for a dual. Its the only one that has small piping but says it gives a true 8 whp on a dyno. i know its a matter of opinion, but i would like to hear from someone who has heard it in person or even used one.

a 57mm exhaust isnt going to gain ****.

3inch ftw

 

But the berk says it flows like an 80mm single... I don't know how but it says that. Also if I'm an N/A setup isn't 3" over kill? I was thinking to get. 70 mm

 

everyone gets very caught up with pipe diameter, but it's all about flow. So the bends in the pipe play a huge role in getting the fumes out quick. I'm not saying that pipe size isn't important, it's just not the be all and end all of exhausts.

 

I have never seen a dyno graph of anything where a good 3 inch exhaust didnt make more power.

70mm is pretty close to 3inch.. 3inch is around 76mm

 

What exhaust are you guy running or familiar with? I'm leaning towards asura's 70mm but I really want to get a good quality n sound in and out of the car

 

I think that because it uses two individual 57mm pipes right after the cat is the reason why it flows more than a single 80mm. Does it really do that I don't know, but Berk is not just some fly by night shop so hopefully there is some science behind the exhaust. Plus it is not cheap, not that makes a difference either, plenty of stuff out there cost big buck but do squat for the S2000.

 

im running tanabe medallion touring with 70mm invidia test pipe..
