ARK PERFORMANCE INC: DTS True Dual Exhaust Product Release

martin82 · 10-05-2012, 06:50 PM

I will be at autoclub tomorrow if I remember I'll have interior sound from the race track

TGreen · 10-06-2012, 10:38 PM

Thanks for making those interior videos, Martin. I can tell that there's no drone at any rpm, real nice. Thanks for rowing through the gears at different speeds.

I'm assuming that (as usual) the phone mic just couldn't pick up the full breadth of the exhaust note because it didn't sound too deep, but it still sounded good. You agree?

Thanks again. I know it can be kind of a pain.

yes, the mic picks up a "higher sound" that it really is.... its a nice deep drone... I will be getting test pipes installed too one of these days....

If you're asking whether this system will fit a 2009 370z, then yes, it will.

Nothing involving this car's exhaust system (at least from the cats back) changed between 2009 and 2011.

You're all good. Good price, too. Where'd you find that at? A vendor here on the forums?

TeamARK · 10-08-2012, 01:01 PM

^^ Right on...

bacardisk3 · 10-08-2012, 08:52 PM

no other way around..the exhaust on the site is for a 2009..i have a 2011..no just found it through a bunch of google links

martin82 · 10-08-2012, 09:06 PM

I'm getting custom test pipes....

Ah, sorry for the misunderstanding. Regardless, nothing with the Z's exhaust system changed from 2009 to 2011, they're totally the same.

The "2009" exhaust will work on your 2011 Z. I'm guessing the 2009 is only specified on the website because it was the first model year for the 370z. Most places will put 2009+, but no matter. You're still good.

martin82 · 10-09-2012, 03:03 PM

I have a 2012... they install fine to all years 370z...

bacardisk3 · 10-10-2012, 12:57 AM

ok good thanks for the info..im skeptical about the test pipes or hfc..i dont want a hissing noise at all..and ive read no matter what test pipes you get you'll a hiss..but with the ark hfc ive read there isnt one..so maybe ill go with them..are test pipe gains much better than hfc's?

TeamARK · 10-10-2012, 12:01 PM

The gains for a test pipe will be a little better than hfc since there is less restrictions on the entire system

TGreen · 10-10-2012, 06:53 PM

Here's Martin82's car. Good video of the exhaust that somehow isn't in this thread.

TeamARK · 10-10-2012, 08:00 PM

Thanks for the video!
