I'm still pissed that a V2 version came out and I'm stuck with the V1 cats.

sounds lke bashing for no good point cuz one person posted they had a leak at the upper HFC connection. And they Said tony used sealent. With no imput from tony how do we know this? So stick to selling you product as a well built hfc that is cheeper and produces just as much power as FI.

No worries, they're just 3.5mm larger in OD and we have a 1pc support bracket now. It just makes them easier for us to manufacture. They're essentially the same exact part.

The only real "upgrade" we gave them were additional dual pre-cat O2 bungs & plugs. Unless you're using a full time wide band O2 gauge, it doesn't even matter.

I am the one who stated that leak issue with FI.

Original installer was Tony himself 4months ago and
last week he told me that he never had gasket on the engine side
He has plan to make those next year and he sealed my HFC with silicone again.--which was didnt work last time.

I like to ask you guys about this
Is there any1 got the 4gasket(2oval shape and 2triangle shape) who already bought the FI HFC?

I dont want to trouble here but dont treat me like i am a liar

Never said liar just looking for all sides to chime in. I know FI only sends 2 gaskets with the HFC's as they are sitting in my garage as we type. just would like a sponsor to show a little more class is all. And for tony to chime in on this as well.

I dont know about you but i didnt know much about CEL issue before.
After tony installed my HFC i went to tony 3times and went to dealership like
7 or 8 times
meanwhile, i had to reinstalled my injen(dealer told me so) and changed both o2 sensor before the CAT and finally took out injen and sent it for the warranty cover.
And last week when tony took out my HFC there was leakage going on

What did i do for last 4months?
Just 2 gasket might saved my time and worry.

^sorry to hear that jung. Sounds like a real pain the azz.

How about asking Berk for gaskets, I think they said they're producing them for non-Berk customers too.

DIdnt know why for 4months and i found there was leakage on there.
I went to tony and he told me he dont have any gasket for it and he will get that
next year.
No gasket on the flange???
Whoever want to buy this product watch out
A few months ago when we first spoke, you told me that the CEL light was on for months before you even decided to contact me. So am I supposed to be a mind reader? If you do not make me aware of the problem how am I supposed to know that it is there? When you did finally decide to make me aware of the problem I set time aside to have you come in and I installed the non foulers. Now apparently the check engine light came back on some time down the road. You called me and again, I told you I would inspect the cats to see if they were defective. I told you if they were, I would replace them free of charge. At some point through all of this, you were the one that decided to Repeatedly go to the dealer without consulting us first.


Now, until last week you did not know that they were leaking because I told you that they were leaking. When I had discovered that someone else had removed them and improperly reinstalled them. I asked you face to face who had tampered with them and at first you were hesitant with a deer in the headlight look. When I repeatedly asked you, the truth came out. You said "the dealership removed them and reinstalled them" Then I told you that they were leaking and the reason that they were leaking was because the dealership scraped all of the silicone off and never applied new silicone. So now you have two flanges mated together with no silicone or gasket. Of course it would leak!

When you left, I told you that we were working on getting gaskets made and a permanent non fouler fix. I told you if the light came back on, call me immediately. You seemed very understanding, however I must of mis read you because you had to bring the issue here...

Thanks!
