Be patient. It's not the end of the world.

At least you are in safe hands with Berk Technology. Some companies would make you bite the dust.

Sorry to hear that man. I was so thankful that my 2nd set fit - since it took like a month or something. Be sure to call them and talk to Laura or Lorie. I did the whole PM thing and that delayed it like crazy.

Hopefully these issues get resolved. If they have a solid jig, I have no clue how this would happen.

in somewhat related news (might help undecided buyers) i went and brough my car to a shop because i thought i the berk cats mightve cracked because ive been hearing a hissing noise.

Got it checked, and the cats are A-OK. Turns out one of the gaskets at the midpipe/muffler was a little loose. this was a relief.

will for my car when its on idle ,i can hear a very low sound its NOT exhaust leak it more like (ffut ffut ffut .....) i didn`t check it yet but i`m thinking its because of size difference in pipes between the APS 2.5 and the stock cats (its less then 2.5) ,so i`m waiting to install my high flow cats (it`s 2.5) and see if i can still hear it !!
dose that makes any sense

Could be the cats meeting up... Have you installed a plenum or anything? Is your oil low? I noticed that once I installed my 5/16th plenum some of the engine noises got a little louder and another time oil was low and that (Fft fft fft) sound was accented. (or I was just paranoid about it )

Another thing it could be is your fuel injectors. They're kinda noisy.
