I too have ark grip v2 paired with some resonated test pipes. It's a mean combination. In my opinion it has a deeper note than the FI setup. It's really by preference. But you can't really go wrong with both IMO.

Only heard great things about FI tho. They have nice quality work.

I'm thinking about picking up ARK because I keep reading the same two things: ARK is not as a loud and a little deeper than FI. I don't want a really loud exhaust, just something louder than stock and I also love deep exhaust notes. Gotta make up my mind before the 31st... :P

If you haven't already ordered and haven't read this..

Please give the original post a read over.. It's exactly what I had to deal with, without the damage but the misalignments pissed me off..
