It seriously sounds so amazing in person. The iPhone 4 just can't capture how deep it truly is.

WOT there is no rasp and it's sooooo smooth. I love them.

However, I am worried about the drivers side where the ART meets the catback. I had to use some force to get them to match up. The passengers side went great but I did that side first. Looking under the car you can see how the drivers side exhaust hangs like 1/4-1/2" lower than the passengers side. I don't believe this is a problem with the ART pipe because they seem to appear even and straight. Probably just me when I was tightening up the exhaust near the rear axle I suppose I could have tweaked it a bit.

Overall, I am stoked. I can definitely feel the power difference between the GTM resonated test pipes and the Motordyne ART pipes. Can't wait to get my car on the dyno on the 12th.

dang you got a shirt with yours!

Tonnnyy i demand motordyne underwear!

These new titanium ceramic coated pipes look sick! Cant wait to get em installed! Just curious though is there some special components within the extra 'cylinder' that would cause the lifespan of these pipes to be lower than regular RTPs that tend to last forever? or will these pipes also last as long?

Thanks!

^^ this... Tony PLEASE get this thing going and ready... i'll have the whole Motordyne set-up from the XYZ back! I'm hopeful it will make more power than any other exhaust as the F.I. seems to be the king of CBE power gains so far.

Tony, is this exhaust being made to compliment your XYZ as well as the ART pipes to maximize power for those who already have it?

Last question, should I just start at the XYZ and move back as money becomes available or would the ART pipe yield the most gain for a first mod?

Can't wait

This is the only exhaust holding me back from picking up the FI CF catback.

Hope it surpasses their HP/TQ gains.
