Cobra vs Berk HFC

[mh99]

Hey everybody,

 

I'm looking to get rid of my dead OEM cats and install some good HFCs. Since I'm located in central Europe, there Isn't much of a choice really. I've narrowed it down to two options: Berk or Cobra. I've read multiple threads on here but most of them are old so I figured It would make sense to make a new thread to get some new opinions. If you have one of these, let me know how you like it. I have a true dual exhaust from Xforce (x-pipe design similar to Invidia Gemini) so If anybody has one of these HFCs paired up with a similar system, I  would love to hear your experience with it. My goal Is to have a fairly civilized setup which Is not obnoxiously loud at cruise speeds.

It's worth checking the lead times on berks with your supplier. I bought a set from Tarmac and because America is being extra America currently, it was going to take over 3 months for delivery so I gave up 😞

As above it all depends on the lead time. Cobra are made in Britain so should be much quicker to come out. Berks are decent also but will take much longer is the dealer doesn't have them in stock.

Thanks for the response guys. I can get both delivered in about 2 weeks. So availability isnt much of a concern. How Is the quality on Berks nowadays? In some 10 year old threads few guys have said that the Cobra cats are better quality. Is that still the case? They are a tad bit cheaper than the Cobras. I figure they both sound the same since exhaust makes the most difference.
