Motordyne ART Pipes Install at Alphawerx

Paskii

Hi everyone,

Another short review/feedback for the Motordyne ART pipes. First off I would like to thank you Mariella from Motordyne for being so helpful when shipping the product over. Also thank you DjSquall for referring me to Alphawerx to do the install, they were professional and good people to work with. Oh by the way ART pipes is installed onto the stock exhaust, only other MOD is Sprint Booster. I don't have any pics yet will see if Alphawerx have any.

The product: It was packaged well so no issues with the ART pipes, overall I was pleased with the craftmanship. Not to mention its very light compared to the stock cats.

Install: From what I heard it was quite diffcult to remove the bolts, it was rusty and took a bit more time I believe but overall pretty straightfoward. No leaks from what I gather.

Sound: Very little difference between stock when you start the car, its slightly deeper. Like Kastley said there is no rasp when pushing the car, there is a slight hiss around 1500-2k RPM.
Update: I noticed the sound getting deeper now.

Performance: Definitely an improve on torque throughout the bands and very likely som gains in hp, didn't dyno the car so I don't any numbers. Overall I'm quite impressed with the ART pipes, seems to have all the benefits of test pipes minus the rasp. I imagine if the ART pipes are bolted with the upcoming Motordyne exhaust it would sound pretty sweet.

Potential Cons: Potential meaning I'm not sure if this problem is due to the product. This is day 2 of having the ART pipes but I noticed some fumes coming from the car, smells similar to gasoline but not sure. Anyone else experiencing this? You smell it when you start up the car and if you are stuck in traffic idling you will notice it as well. Note I didn't reset the BCM or unplug the battery, would that change anything? Also I notice that my gauge that displays how much mileage is left until I need to refill changed dramatically. Mileage dropped, not sure why either.
Update: The smell is normal for these pipes, Tony mentioned that their upcoming exhaust will have an option cat convertor that will get rid of the smell.

Overall Impression: I had a good run in poker so I had some extra cash to buy this and it was worth it, if anyone is looking to improve the 370z performance should definitely look into this.

ART pipe is potentially resonated test pipe with helmholtz resonator.

Hume you smell is unfiltered emissions.
