pokeyl · 05-28-2011, 03:01 PM

ARK Exhaust

Quiet, deep. Roars when you get on it. No drone. Awesome Tone.

I hope you are right, I bought the Ark exhaust yesterday. Can't wait to get it bolted on.

Based on the youtube clicks on the forum it sounded the best for the money and the availability.

ive heard nearly every exhaust in Atlanta. So far I like the ARK best myself. But im more partial to a quiter everyday exhaust with an awesome tone and then roars when you get on it.

Others who like louder exhausts would of course pick a different favorite.

my hks is an excellent set up imo, resonators on top of the mufflers contain most of the sound at lower exhaust flow, then they get bypassed when you really get into it and the car wakes up! just my .02 worth.

Berk CBE might be good for you. It has no drone on the highway. All you'll hear will be the road noise on the highway. But it's a got a good tone during accelerations. Personally I wish it was a little louder, but you can always pair it with their HFC's to make it more aggressive.

The ark exhaust looks very nice, but I didn't buy it because I think some people complained of a noise issue with hfc or tp installed. However, not sure if they fixed the issue. I ended up buying the invidia w/ cnt hfc, I'm pretty happy.

the only complaint I have heard about the ark exhaust is the fact that once you have it installed, even if you hang it perfectly, the two mufflers are not at the same height and the "ARK" stamps on the mufflers are not even, little things like that would piss me off..

Oo i never even noticed the uneven canisters.
