Thanks for this Nic.

What are your thoughts on the Berk dual exhaust. In earnest, I've always preferred a single exit.. but the HKS one (which has caught my eye) is a lot more expensive than the berk..

Sorry I don't have any experience of the Berk exhaust, there are videos on Youtube though.

To be fair, so was I. I walked into the lounge, picked it up and was like "Eh... yeah he's probably right."

Fujitsubo Legalis-R

Even with the centre section made from 3" stainless, mine is still very quiet (from in the car i only hear the turbo spooling) compared to my old Departure 2 Pro and KO Racing T1.

Hks silents are 2.25 inch iirc, certainly not 3" which you need. Go for the fujisubo.

I have a Berk and it sounds bloody lovely, not too loud at low speeds, but put your foot down and it has a lovely rumble/roar.

Trying to remember when i had one...the exhaust tapers to a larger diameter as it goes through to the exit pipe, the first section near to the cat is something silly like 2.25/2.5".

i do remember well changing to the blitz nur, noticeable difference in power, pipe size.
