Review MOTORDYNE SHOCKWAVE E370

SS_Firehawk · 11-03-2012, 11:38 AM

I don't own this exhaust, but the quality of Motordyne's stuff is awesome, their support is great, and they focus strictly on G/Z platforms. If your looking for the more aggressive of the two, Motordyne is it. ARK makes a good product as well, you really need to listen to sound clips of different combinations using these exhausts.

I've only seen good feedback for MD stuff, fitting, quality and clearance. I've seen mixed for the ARK.

Besides, the MD looks great too

Thanks. I'll look into ARK a little more.

Well, I'm back and I did some more research on the ARK V2 exhaust and it looks like all the fitment issues were with their early prototype versions. From what I understand and read, all of the issues have been fixed and new customers have nothing but good things to say. Sound is all subjective, but you can't go wrong with either one.

Yes, i've found the new/current version is being reported as fitting fixed, only thing left is that it's not a completely drone free exhaust.

i've heard at normal hwy speeds it doesn't drone? can anyone confirm this. I've got art pipes that i just installed and LOVE, and want the shockwave too but I don't want drone louder than the road noise or that I cant kill with a tiny bit of radio

TDX2 and ART pipes = no drone at any speed. The E370 should be exactly the same.

Cruising, you can barely hear it. I DD mine and it's great.

I have drone with my ART & E370 combo.

You shouldn't have any, did you remove the evap cannister heat shield? I don't believe i've had anyone else say they had drone with their E370. When/where do you get it?

Thinking about throwing this exhaust on my 09 Sport + Touring. Did you end up getting the ART pipes? Are you passing emissions lol?

I'd like to do a Z1 CA, ART pipes, Shockwave, and maybe a remote tune if possible.
