Anyone have ARK hfc or test pipes with ark exhaust?

Bandit_Kaine · 01-06-2013, 12:40 PM

I currently have ARK grip with stock cats on my car and I'm thinking on getting ark hfc or test pipes, I'm wondering if anyone has this combo and can chime in on how much louder it is and if it drones inside the cabin.

Anyone with ark grip knows that it's very quiet and zero drone and I'd like to keep it without drone, a little louder if possible under acceleration.

I do have the ark hfc's with my grip style exhaust. Dude it is AMAZING!!! Their is a significant increase in drone but in my opinion it isn't that annoying or loud to the point that i don't like it. When im feathering the gas and letting it slowly climb in rev's it just sounds sexy!!!! I was doing 60 next to the center divider on the freeway and kicked into 3rd and let it rip....sounds like a damn race car...LOVE IT! I have a vid posted for after hfc install.

If you have the ARK HFC's I would say go with the DTS exhaust system. The tone is more refined and helps with the hiss and rasp as well

I have an ARK exhaust with Fast Intentions HFC, it sounds amazing. I love it.

I totally agree

No Drone with the DTS HFC combo
OP look here for my review: ARK DTS exhaust w/ Tecno tips & ARK HFC's-Review

I have both, I love how the sound is more amplified!!

we would love to see more of the complete ARK combos! high flow cats that are resonated definitely refines the VQ

roy'sz · 01-10-2013, 03:30 PM

Dies the ARK HFC'S cause ses light to come on? Just had it come on after 1k miles with them on.

Bandit_Kaine · 01-12-2013, 02:05 PM

I would think all HFC's/test pipes will eventually cause the light to come on.

I'm UpRev tuned so the light is gone.

I'll be getting the ARK HFC sometime soon.. I love the ARK grip that I have so I hope it sounds just as good with the HFC.

roy'sz · 01-12-2013, 02:47 PM

It does sound sweet but wasnt sure if ALL cats cause ses light to come on

roy'sz · 01-12-2013, 03:53 PM
