Berk Tech exhaust on 128

I posted in another thread that I adapted a Berk Tech full street exhaust to my 128.

So here is pictures.








I also have a crappy go-pro video comparing the stock exhaust and my new exhaust on an autocross course.

Looks good. How difficult is the conversion?

The shop that was repairing the car from the accident did the work. They just cut the leading end of the Berk 135 pips off and welded them to the stock exhaust pipes. The only other modification that they did was on one of the rear hangers, because it would interfear with the hitch. That was it for mods.

The Berk exhaust is not perfect. There is a pin hole exhaust leak in one of the original hand done welds, the muffler assambly didn't mate up perfectly with the main pipes and they forgot to include the hardware and gaskets (which they did eventually send).

In the end it was good that I had a shop do the work and not me in my drive way.

But oh, I love the sound. :-)
