Anyone tried this exhaust?

Hey guys,

I finally got a chance to install the exhaust. It's a really nice piece. Stock exhaust took a little bit of trickery to remove (had to unbolt rear hangars to get the muffler to drop) and some of the bolts were pretty tough. But the ARK Design exhaust comes with new zinc coated hardware and all new gaskets, so I didn't run into any issues.

The welds are extremely nice and each section bolted up very tight. No clearance issues on the cross-beam like some exhausts have. I will get some some sound clips next week if I get a chance. The exhaust adds a pretty deep sound, not sure how to describe it as I only had stock to compare it to before. But compared to my buddies Stillen exhaust it's much throatier and has as nicer note (at least IMO). But here are some pictures for the time being.
