Ebay 2.5in cat

you get what you pay for. At least with berk u know what u are getting, u know you can speak with them in person, and you know the product is going to work as it claims. The fact that it says an instant 10-15 hp is incredibly false unless you were running some kind of FI, and even that would be a stretch as test pipes are seeing 6-7 whp. There's no way that with more restriction you are going to gain the same if not better hp....then again, if u have 45 bucks to blow, u can find out for yourself!

what about the SARD HFC?

http://www.nengun.com/sard/sports-catalyzer

I know it's more expensive than the Berk (cheaper than OEM thought) but .. is it worth it? (I asume the answer will be no..)

The core in that is probably ceramic, which won't last long.

Either way, I have Berk's HFC and it's great and adds a little more growl to the stock exhaust.
