After several set ups, I have finally found my favorite intake/exhaust combo. Just a little background on what i've had over the past 2 years. I won't bother mentioning stock.

1. ARK Grip Type 2 with K&N drop ins (dynoed 275/235 with 6k on the car) Nice set up that sounded good.

2. ARK with R2C short ram - Even nicer sound with some growl from the intakes.

3. ARK, R2C with Motordyne ART Pipes- WORST COMBO EVER.....Please do not mix these two ARK/ART together. This combo makes a horrible squeel where a Z would normally hiss. I was gonna modify the exhaust but I ended up finding a FI set up for a great price. Was it the x pipe or the flex pipe? I'll never know.

4. Fast Intentions CBE with 18" resonators, ART pipes, R2C- Great set up good power but the smell from the test pipes was really killing me.

5. Fast Intentions, Stillen G3, Fast Intentions HFC -WINNING! - Finally got off my *** and purchased the G3's and FI HFC's. Now I see what the buzz is all about. So much more low end torque with the HFC's. Sounds amazing to boot. No drone, no vibrations. Fast intentions is top notch.
