The OEM style y pipe designs tend to sound like a louder version of stock.

However, the rub here seems to be that the true dual systems are more susceptible to the hissing on decel (when a test pipe or HFC is added) than the OEM style systems.

Hoping ARK comes through with their HFC soon to fix this issue. The system is great otherwise.
Yea, ARK told me the same about the HFC. If they can come up with one that fixes the hiss, I'm putting the Berk's up for sale.
