ART pipes are resonated alright. Much more than a regular resonated test pipe.
ART pipes use a side-branch Helmholtz resonator for better acoustic and resonance control. It is also why they cost more than regular test pipes. These side-branch resonator reduces high frequency rasp like a standard glass pack but they also control midrange and low frequencies. It makes for a quieter and clearer sound with less rasp, less loudness and even less drone. It is interesting to note that while it reduces drone, it gives your CBE a subtle infrasonic growl. . |

We could make regular test pipes but what would be the point? It would have a different name and be exactly like all the rest. There's no fun in that. The way I see it, it if its not the best, there isn't much reason to produce it. |

I have ordered last week ART pipes for G35 sedan fitment for the Z, as G35sedan/G37 share the same highflow cas and TPs so these should fit, its reaching on thursday will post a review then. I heard in my friends Z and it sounds amazing nothing like resonated or non resonated test pipes and there is good low end torque in these
