Flashback Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Hi all just looking at finally getting some HFCs and probably going BERKs but there's a few others out there too. Are there any others recommended that will pass MOT as it's my daily driver? If so what are the pros and cons of each? Sorry probably been asked a million times...

GMballistic Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Okay, honestly you could be taking a risk that you'll not pass the MOT emissions test with any HFC's (imho). I'm just telling you that so that you're going into buying the HFC's with your eyes wide open. I mean I passed the MOT emissions test no problem with my old 03' Zed running Berks HFC's and an Invidia Gemini exhaust system but I have heard of others with the same set up not passing. I think if you do have HFC's it is imperative that you get them nice and hot before MOT with a good long drive. I did that with mine and never had an issue. I can't really recommend you anything as I never had any other HFC's except the Berks so that's what my experience was with. Good luck.

Flashback Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Fair enough, I know they need to be hot and there's a risk etc. Expect I'll keep the stock ones in the garage somewhere as a just in case option. Thanks GM... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-G- Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Chris at Tarmac Sports does alternative HFCs, I bought a set for my 380 but have yet to fit them. Think the brand is Japspeed but I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay84 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I keep looking at Tarmac Sport as hes down the road from me, could be dangerous. I have to balance a sporty sound and keeping wifey happy lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMetal Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I've berks and gemini and never had an issue, it gets MOT'd at a specialist garage so maybe they know how to prep the car correctly but never had problems in 4 years anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
