Alex350z Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Had them fitted earlier today, god they sound good! I just wondered if they need any sort of settling in period before giving it a thrashing? Quote
Alex350z Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 nope - crack on For real!? Im sure i read somewhere ages ago its best to take it easy for a bit. But ill take your word for it, im excited now!! Quote
ioneabee Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 they take a few hundred miles or so to coke up and sound better ............ but never heard of anything requiring them to "bed" in - there are no moving parts in there - you do know that ? Quote
GMballistic Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 ^^ What he said. They'll take time to "coke" up and eventually they may sound a little different but as far as a run in procedure there isn't one. Just drive it as normal, ...hard & fast. Quote
Alex350z Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 Im aware theres no moving parts lol! Just thought id make sure Quote
Alex350z Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 I have noticed they make a slight hissing noise at certain revs, i dont know if this is normal? Quote
Alex350z Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Sounds like typical rasp berks hfc's do I was thinking that, but i can hear the rasp under load. Im not sure, its a strange sound. Like air hissing, especially when you blip it and lift off. Edited May 31, 2016 by Alex350z Quote
ioneabee Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 yep - thats normal too - my favourite part of the sound 1 Quote
Alex350z Posted May 31, 2016 Author Posted May 31, 2016 yep - thats normal too - my favourite part of the sound It does sound quite cool! Just making sure its not a leak or something Quote
Rock_Steady Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) it could also be the flexy on the Y-pipe vibrating at low-ish revs when you put your foot down, around 2500 rpm? Mine makes the same noise yours does. It's never been a problem. Edited June 1, 2016 by Rock_Steady Quote
Alex350z Posted June 1, 2016 Author Posted June 1, 2016 How does the sound tend to change on the berks once they have done a few hundred miles? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 How does the sound tend to change on the berks once they have done a few hundred miles? You should be able to answer your own question within a few hours 2 Quote
