Been thinking about the berk dual lately

I've read a few write ups and watched a ton of videos with Berk's systems for the FR-S and they seem to make good products. I don't feel their stuff is overpriced at all, and the exhaust note is great. I was originally just going to do the single exit test pipe for daily driving but decided since the car comes with a dual, it would look stupid with a single exit when there are places for a dual. I have a full header back exhaust on my Miata and people say that's loud but I think it's just loud enough and not too ricey. I'm the only one who rides in my cars most of the time. Occasionally my wife and I go to town and I just tested the back seats with my mom and brother only to find out they are better suited for small items and maybe infants.

Point being that I bought a sports car to drive it like a sports car and to enjoy a good exhaust note but the FR-S is just too quiet so time to upgrade! My plan is to buy the dual pipe muffler delete and drive it for a couple of weeks. If I don't think it is loud enough then I will order the mid pipe next. If I STILL find that I want more noise, which I doubt, I will maybe source out a good header?

So give me your experience with Berk and let me know how you like their exhaust.

I just went with single exit Berk for weight savings lol. Combined with my skunk2 intake she sounds great. I have a tow strap that hangs over the empty exhaust hole.its Not obvious anymore.

Great story man. You could have just found the Berk thread and posted this in that.
