MOTORDYNE ART Pipes - Review

harp00n

will it work for vq35hr?

Rubidium

Well he does have a set of ART pipes for the HR already (I have a set) paired with my Shockwave))) v2 TDX and it's pure sex. So many people day to day compliment me on the exhaust and want one. Once you get past 4k rpm it just opens up and sounds amazing.

I gave up last month and went with an FI.

After mine is turbo then I might consider them again if there's a 3" version.

Had a Shockwave V2 system on my 350... by far the best sounding exhaust system I've heard on a Z car. I can't wait to get one for my 370... Tony builds QUALITY stuff!!

I'm happy to report after 300 miles, my SES codes p2a00 and p2a03 has not returned after taking out the steel wool as suggested by Tony. Hope it remains that way!!

Tony. Is it safe to say the exhausts will not be ready for purchase by Jan 1?

Regarding the wool:

I was forced to do some custom fabrication to my ART Pipes, because they did not come with a bracket. Unfortunately, simply welding a bracket would not suffice, because the J-bung for the O2 sensor hung too low, thus it would not allow the OEM brace that holds the OEM cats to be used. So the bung was cut, angled upward, and rewelded on. I had noticed that the hole that feeds air to the J-bung was so, so sooooo tiny - roughly the size of an ant in width, which explains why ART Pipes can trigger CELs. Seriously, you'd be hard pressed to stick a grain of rice through it. That coupled with the enormous amount of wool stuffed into the bung made it clear why I started getting CELs.

Btw: Performance Motorsport did an absolutely astonishing job with the welding and fabbing. They TIG welded practically everything for me, and all of the cuts, bends, and etc. look damn near factory finish. The vibration in my shifter is now completely gone, and even though I still have a bit of an exhaust leak in the flex area of my exhaust, because there is more rigidity the exhaust leak isn't opening much so the leak has gotten a bit quieter and less annoying. Still, I'm awaiting on my new flex sections - someone from Invidia sent me a pair from a G37 sedan stupidly (they're completely different in size, length, and even design). I was so pissed when we realized it at the shop. And 370Z replacements won't be available for another 2 weeks.

Don't count on it ..

I'm so on the fence regarding the ART pipes. Can I please get some updates as far as CEL's, rattles, leaks and any other concerns that I should be aware of, also what has been done to resolve these issues if there could be a resolution. A big plus would be to hear from anyone that has them with my same exhaust system, sound and performance wise.
Thanks in advance,
TommyGuns
