HFC's for NISMO exhaust

What do you guys recommend? I did a search and BERK's HFC sounded really tempting.........does anyone on here run these HFC. Could anyone please share the good the bad and the ugly on these HFC's. Im definitely itching for a new mod.......It's been a long while since I treated my sweetness to some upgrades.

I'm currently running NISMO CAI and NISMO Exhaust

just buy a set of test pipes. If I remember right, they are cheaper, and give better performance. Also, buy the non foulers and you should be set. I run the APS and have no issues. Others would recommend different ones, but they all do the same thing, just maybe 1-2hp difference.

had some with my aps exhaust and test pipe combo, but it wasn't extremely bad. Don't know which ones sound the best with the nismo exhaust. Ask around in the exhaust section for sound clips. i go more for performance than looks or sound. My name isn't Alvin

i had a friend running kinetix hfc's with the nismo exhaust... sounded very nice... but i wouldnt recommend spending money on hfc's if you plan to build your car later.... you will want test pipes eventually

Test Pipes = Rasp and much stronger smelling exhaust fumes. Doesn't matter if they're resonated or not. If you or your old lady can't deal with that, they're not for you.

I have DC headers, Berk HFCs (Metallic) and a Nismo exhaust. Quiet at idle, but very loud when on the throttle. Slight rasp @ 2800 rpm when system is cold.

Resonated will cut down on the rasp, dont count on the non-foulers fixing the CEL, generally the 03-04 dont throw a CEL but even with non foulers in the 05-06 ive seen the CEL come on with testpipes.
