Default Anyone currently have the Motordyne Shockwave CBE?

I'm looking for a new exhaust system. I was leaning towards the ARK but I don't think it has the loudness that I want. The reason I'm asking is because I haven't heard this particular exhaust system in person and there are very few videos of the Z running this on YouTube. So a few questions to the owners of the Motordyne:

1) What can the loudness of the exhaust be compared to? I know for a fact it's louder than the ARK Grip but what about FI? I want to try and keep it CBE only and not add headers or HFCs as of right now.

2) Is it worth the $1700 price tag? It's a couple hundred dollars more than the ARK I want and I'm not sure which one is worth the money.

3) If you hate both the ARK and Motordyne, do you recommend another exhaust in a similar price range? (Preferably lower price than the Motordyne, and anything except Fast Intentions as I cannot work with the 9-12 week wait.)

Thanks so much!

Motordyne is a bit louder than the fast intention with 18 res. But it's a smooth mellow sexy louder, not just volume if that makes sense. It is tougher I guess might be the best way to put it.

It is worth every penny. Quality second to none. HIGHLY recommend.

Thank you man! I actually ended up purchasing it! Extremely happy with the sound and look. I noticed right out of the box that the material is very high quality.
