Default Turbo Berk Headerback Exhaust Video

Had wanted to do one of these for awhile. The one thing I've always been quite pleased with my car on is how it sounds. Forgot to mention in the video, Tial 44mm wastegate with external dump.

Let me know what you guys think I haven't seen a lot of people running these exhausts on FI setups. This exhaust is normally considered one of the loudest commonly installed models for the S that's still frequently used. The turbo helps quiet it up quite a bit though, and seems to make it a bit more refined.

Very nice! I've been waiting to see what it sounds like. You don't hear the exhaust all that much. The turbo sounds WAAAAAAAY more prominent than the exhaust. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks And yeah, the turbo quieted up the exhaust a lot once it was installed. I'm thinking with how short that log manifold is along with the small exhaust housing it basically acts as a restrictor/resonator as far as sound is concerned.

I eventually have plans to upgrade to an EFR twin scroll turbo and a Full-Race forward manifold if I hold onto the car. I'm betting it will be a bit louder/more aggressive then

Nice. So are you straight downpipe to exhaust or do you have a test pipe section built? Flexpipe?

3"x6" Vibrant flex pipe welded onto the end of the downpipe, which is then fed into a 3" test pipe before hitting the rest of the exhaust all the way out to the muffler.
