Our goals for this exhaust
1. Raise the lowest point of the exhaust for maximum clearance
2. Eliminate or significantly reduce Hiss/RASP caused by HFC and Testpipes
3. Maintain our ARK signature Exhaust tone
4. Design the Exhaust for the most optimum flow
5. No drone in any RPM range.

any specs on the tip sizes? 4.5''?

4.5" dual rolled tips is what we will be using.

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

This exhaust sounds so promising! Good thing i decided to wait for this before buying any other!

any dyno results?

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.

Please! im tired of scraping my exhaust pipes. I need more clearance :tup:

Hey Alex

:p feel free to send me a set if you want another dyno test n all!

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.

Videos will be up shortly

What the chance of yall making a 3" turbo exhaust for us turbo guys?

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

we will be waiting. ;)

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?

we are working on one, However until we are completely satisfied with the results, we will not release any hard facts.

Alex

Alex when you have a chance call me 951-796-8290. I need to ask you a few things mike talked to you about.

Great Talking to you Jamaica.

Hope to talk to you soon Alex!

Im sure we will. A lot of new ideas thrown around will lead to something great.

what are the torque specs for the exhaust bolts when installing the ark grip?

Tight enough so that it doesn't leak. If i were to give you a number it would be about 6 ft/lb. Our bolts come with washers and locking nut. Its not gonna go anywhere.

ok didnt know if there was a specific torque figure

Any updates on the Type1?

Sorry for the delay in videos guys. Our Video Editing Computer crashed. We will get up the raw videos up asap
