I haven't tripped a cel with my Berk, it's been flawless! With my Comptech exhaust it made a much more noticeable difference in sound, and what seems like a difference in power, but what does my ass know

No CEL for me yet either..but i'm always paranoid that it's gonna pop up and thus I can't seem to keep my eyes off the dash!

I am thinking i may need to get a catback exhaust to experience some better sound. I think i am gonna look for a fujitsubo, from all the sound clips i have heard that one is my fav.

Upon driving the car more it definitely seems to pull harder, especially in 3rd gear at higher rpm's..but it's hard to say for sure when you're only going by your butt dyno haha

i guess its not too bad sounding with stock exhaust before vtec hits, but does anyone else notice the weird burbling sound the stock exhaust makes while shifting at high vtec rpm?

I have lots of burbles especially when decelerating and I love it I like the little pops and burbles.

yeah i just think it's kinda funny to have all these burbling sounds on a little 4 cylinder!

I was joking with my buddy who drives an LT1 trans am running straight pipes and my exhaust burbles almost as much as his does

So i'm 50/50 on whether i like this thing or not.

The smell seems to be getting worse, and it bothers me more and more each day!

Overall, the gains are pretty negligible.. vtec transition seems to be a bit smoother, maybe a bit more pull up top, but that could be all in my head.

However, the sound grew on me and i kinda like it now..thats probably the only real positive that comes from the test pipe..oh and im not throwing a CEL, i guess that's a bonus!
