silencer is optional. it is portable item. Also, without silencer, with silencer makes about 3dbs level changes.

 

i LOVE the exhaust note, just not the freeway drone.

when are the tips going to be ready??

 

pm replied. Let me know if you need anything else.

 

Can it say "grip" on it a few more times?? Sheesh. lol

 

who did your headlights? nice car btw

 

Super Clean. The whole Orange and Black/Carbon looks clean.

 

I did them. Simple but time consuming. Thanks a lot.

 

I would love to hear some good sound clips...seen the few on youtube but Im still not sure if I am sold on this setup

 

the hardest sound clip to get is the 2nd gear freeway on-ramp pull....the exhuast really comes to life at W.O.T. cruising around town is very close to my friends HKS tone, it keeps that unique VQ motor sound, just louder and crisper.

ill try and get some vids this weekend.

 

we will also work to get some freeway vids up. We are in the process of getting a dealer for GoPRO cameras

 

nice but not feelin the silencers

 

update video:

2.5 inch test pipes and ARK exhuast.

great video!

 

untuck that ****. looks like a HKS knock-off to me.

 

It is, id give them some kind of respect if they had their own design, putting xpipe does not make it a completely different exhaust, just my opinion =/

 

Seriously, HKS has a lot of catching up to do. With as much respect we have for HKS, I believe our system overall is better. To some it might seem like a BOLD statement, but if you were to really compare you would see that our system is superior to any True dual, dual muffler system out in the market now.

 

Dont take it personally, but bull ****. You "ARK" have nothing on HKS, you guys copied their design, maybe improved on the welds, put an X pipe on and stamped the canisters with GRIP, and you have a right to say they have alot of catching up to do? Its their original design, your lucky you arnt getting sued by them, or not yet at least.

For such statements, if i was in the market for an exhaust, i would go for anything other then your system, and i suggest the same for others.

Good luck and hope you get your *** sued and handed to you on your stainless steel GRIP platter.

Credit is given where its due, you have lost all your credibility.

 

I was simply stating that you should at least hear or see it in person. I saw both first hand and even rode in 350z that had this exhaust.

I suggest you do the same. You should also do some research with this dual canister design. Other very reputable JDM companies are doing this as well.

 

^ Not for 350z which looks exactly the same as the HKS exhaust.
And yes i have heard both.

HKS > ARK

 

I understand exactly where you guys are coming from. I ran HKS products before they became of the biggest manufacturers (and It was worth every dollar). I am a 350z owner, a avid fan of all motorsport products alike, and share the love for this industry.

Until then we will work hard to bring our name up with quality and service. That is one of our mission. I know i went off topic a little bit, but I just wanted to state that we are all in this for the love of the industry and I believe that with our passion and hard work, will eventually show throughout this industry.

Note: I wouldnt say exactly the same. X02 is exactly the same. Even to implement an x-pipe with our dual resonators, we would have to make a completely new mold
