Hmm...not bad. Maybe I'll get HFCs instead to avoid smells and rasp.

i want tp's so bad but i dont want to deal with the raspyness and as for smell i dont car because my car is in a car port with openings at each end, so it gets plenty of airflow... another con for hfc's is they are double the price of tp's and add less power than tp's so i guess i will just have to get a really good exhaust?

I herd that HFC can sometimes develop a rattle from the inside.

it seems like every case is different... i have heard from a few people that their hfc's still make a raspy sound and i have also heard from some people that with their test pipes they get no rasp, i guess it mostly depends on the exhaust you get for the rasp, correct? decisions decisions...

actually, the TRUTH of the matter is it depends on the specific combo of parts and the person you talk to. Some people don't know what rasp really sounds like, and some people swear they don't have it, but in fact they do.

To know for yourself, you have to hear it for yourself

the smell is not unbearable for those wondering, and its not even that bad of a smell, its just "different"

ive herad good things about the berks, but have never used them or been in a ride with them on.

i have the SGP 3" open dumps paired with the Greddy Evo TT ... love it
