Stock sound?! What sound is this that you speak of...?

I have the Ark on since March and I love mine!

Just got it installed with Berk Hi-Flow cats. Wow! HUGE difference. It's also louder than I was expecting due to all of the comments on the exhaust in my research. Most people say it's quiet for an aftermarket exhaust. Wtf?

Thing is fairly loud. Might be the HFCs though. Not sure since I put them on at the same time. Will post my iPhone sound vids I took after I record the Ark. So much happier now though. Car sounds gooooood.

I would guess it is the high flow cats. That reason I didn't go with them this time... I did that on the last car and found it annoying on long drives. But I'm sure it sounds awesome when you open it up!

However, on a friends Z with the kinetix hfcs, it remains fairly quiet and sounds just a bit louder compared to mine with stock cats. Either way, still sounds
