Default hks hi power and berks hfc's

hey guys, my Z is my DD but id like the car to have a little bit more growl to it. So, i was looking at upgrading the nismo exhaust that i have right now to the hks high power dual and was also planning on throwing a berks high flow cat in there. What my question is, will it be too loud? I mean i want a little more growl but i dont want to be heard 5 blocks away and id rather not set off car alarms while rolling by. Anyway im still new with the exhaust system and wanted to make sure that's all i need or if i need any other pipes to finish it off?

thanks

j

Wish I could tell you... I have the HKS hi power catback on the HR, just waiting for the BERK HFC's and a few other things to get installed at this time. Should be out of the shop soon...

I have HKS, Berk High flows, popcharger, and AAm spacer. It sounds loud when you want it @ WOT and under normal driving (shifting @ 3-4000rpms) is perfect with no drone while freeway driving. I live in Cali and have had two cops within the last 3 days follow me for 1 mile or so and did nothing because it is not a fart canon with bees fighting inside. IMO perfect sound for the Z unless you can afford Amuse Ti exhaust.

Sounds like *** with my setup on the HR... This is just MHO.

Looks good though...

heard the hks on a g37 this past weekend

im sure it sounds a little diff than it would on a Z, but man it did sound good to me

HOWEVER, there was quite some rasp. those with hks and berk, is it very raspy for you guys too? I kno that the HKS tends to be very raspy with test pipes
