Anyone have Stillen CBr & ART test pipe combo?

Curious to know what it sounds like if so. I can't find anything on the youtubes. Title should say Stillen CBE

i have stillen cbe and test pipes, but they aren't ART. it sounds decent. when i had just the stillen cbe, there was zero rasp/drone. with the tp's there is some rasp usually 2,500-3,200 range. especially when the car is not warm. however, if you gun it from the rasp goes away. so normal driving there would be rasp

All you need to do is swap the freaking TP for HFC, rasp, rattles and drone will be gone for good.

I really do wish you good luck.
I had an akrapovic and got the ART pipes shortly after.
It was the worst thing i have ever heard. I am pretty sure people around me thought it was a Honda

I sold it all in under a weeks time. If i have been explained right, The exhausts are the one that has a major factor in rattle/sound.
Some exhausts dont have 'rattle' (I understand what you have, Its not rasp, Its something much worse. I had it)

I wish you good luck really, But be prepared to put down money for another exhaust or not use Test pipes

The ARTs actually completely solved all rasp and rattle. Its pretty much sounds like I still have the cats on to be honest now. Its not very loud at all for test pipes. I was super surprised after so many on here said it wouldnt fix it

Yeah I know exactly what your talking about, you could still hear it a little before at stand still with the BERK pipes. Thats the whole reason I switched over the ART, now the noise is completely gone even when moving.

I tried to record the rattle with the berks on my phone before I took them off but it didnt pick it up very well even though it was super loud.
