yea thats on the agenda. im waiting to see how hush the axleback is and then ill step up to the resonated mids. any experience with the berk AB? does it sound pretty nice? mine should be here soon im pretty excited!

Personally no but a million members here run Berk axle backs, and I see very few (if any) complaints. Quality stuff from Berk. There are a set of Berk mids for sale right now if you go check it out, you could save yourself a decent amount of coin if it’s a mod you plan on doing in the near future.

Just curious - why did you order a chargepipe? Is yours broken?

yea mine has weird fitment on the throttlebody. i tighten or should i say compress that c clip and the CP still doesnt seat well which i imagine would cause a bad seal against the tb. not to mention my Greddy type S BOV is discontinued so i do want to have to find parts when im in a hurry to replace it if something goes wrong.
