art TP and motordyne ypipe to help hissing/rattling
Only time the hiss started was when WOT and decelerating from 2000 - 3000 rpm
I know what rasp is and rasp is a 3inch fart-can on a stock Honda
im not looking to eliminate rasp im looking to eliminate the hiss

I have been searching and reading on this forum and all over the net, the only thing i can find is, its a normal sound when installed test pipes. i dont know if im not looking in the right places to find my answer or what, but this is becoming very aggravating. basically all i want to know is, no matter what exhaust you have, as long as you have TP on the car its going to rattle/hiss?
both these videos was with the ark v2 grip dual with art pipes, well couple weeks later i sold the ark only because the hissing noise was very embarrassing and basically sounded like complete crap.
I now have a single: art pipes, motordyne resonated y pipe and aam single.
it sounds good with no rasp or hissing but its just a little loud for me and i much prefer the dual.
so what all that being said, any one have art pipes, motordyne resonated ypipe with a dual outlet that dont hiss or rattle? or do i have to put my stock cars back on to get no hissing for when i buy a new exhaust?

that's what i thought. I hate taking off my test pipes but as of now, ill do anything to eliminate this hiss. I like the extra hp but its either HP or sound at this point and i rather have a good sounding z than it to sound like crap.
plus I just feel so Green with my cats on lol
but... will you get the hiss with HFC?

Yeah... I'll always agree with this. +1.
Any hissing that you may get from ART Pipes is practically negated by the Shockwave. It definitely doesn't sound like it does with that Ark exhaust; I can totally understand you getting annoyed by that. The big thing to understand is that it all just depends on what combination you're running as an exhaust, because some setups will exacerbate the problem while others will practically eliminate it. That being said, a little bit of a hiss is normal. A little bit.

No cracks No leaks.
i been under that car and done soooo many tests to make sure there is no cracks and leaks.
This is coming from the y pipe area. a lot of people have this problem when switched to Test pipes.

it's the exhaust. I've never had that noise and i have non-resonated test pipes with borla true dual.
I think it has to do with the test pipes flowing more exhaust than the muffler can handle.

I have the hks and berk test pipes with the magnaflow x-pipe welded in. The rasp is completely gone, however, now I also get a slight hiss only when decelerating. I think it's this style of exhaust that's just plain garbage. I'm looking at changing out over the winter this year.
tylerxfire you have any vids from when you had the xyz/nismo setup? I'd love to hear it. Considering something like this or the shockwave/art pipe combo.

Keep in mind too that it's very difficult to compare the exhaust sounds on a turbo car vs an NA car. 2 identical systems on an NA vs FI car, will sound differently
Some systems are so loud, that it may mask the hissing as well, something to keep in mind. I was worried about it on my car too for a while, then I just stopped paying attention to it. I'll eventually add a cat into my system at the Y pipe and I'll record it whenever I do. I just dont want the smell associated with test pipes anymore. Any sound change for the better will be a bonus, but its not a motivation for me.
To the OP - I'd be curious what happens if you added a resonator(s) into the mix. IMHO, it's the combination of removing the factory cats and the factory resonated Y pipe that tends to cause the various noises people complain about with aftermarket exhausts

I have the HKS exhaust and recently bought Z1 test pipes.
I'm a bit worried about the hissing noise now
As weird as this sounds, I have never heard of or seen any clips with set ups making that 'hissing' noise.
I must have been looking in all the wrong places.

In case this helps, here's the video I made after installing the Motordyne Shockwave TDX to go along w/ my ART Pipes:
(The sound and flyby clips start around 2:00 in. The first half is mainly just the installation.)
Any hiss you hear is just the sound of the intake as I get on the gas - there's none of that nastiness like what you're experiencing with the Ark setup.

I had the hissing sound problem with test pipes also. It only happened on decelleration around 2500-3000 RPM. It became embarrassing and unbearable. That was with my old set-up with Megan resonated test pipes and X02.
I added to Magnaflow resonated x-pipe in place of the X02 resonators and h-pipe on the y-pipe and it solved the problem and reduced drone significantly. No more hissing on deceleration or high pitched "metallic" noises at WOT.
