do you have a ballpark ETA on when this will be finished? Very interested in this (especially because of points #1 and 2)

dyno tests for the type 1 and type 2 will be done on the same day. That is when we get the final production in which is about 40 days from today.

Thanks for the update Alex! Can you also please get the weight of the entire exhaust as well, just curious what the difference is between Type 1 and stock.

370z community has been very good to us. We are always looking for more ways to expand and perfect all of our exhaust systems.

I have the Ark Grip exhaust and love it! I read somewhere that you guys are in the makes of producing a HFC that eliminates the hissing sound associated with going catback on the Z, is that piece available yet?
