I had the 18" resonators. Stock cats.

I have the Ark Grip V2 on my '13 which I prefer. It doesn't drone and has a bit more of an exotic tone to it.

Thanks dude! Def looking forward to it.

I will also start looking into the Ark. It has the same design as the HKS, but is much much cheaper.

Its all personal preference, check them all out and go with what you like. Me, Im an ARK fan, although the Fast Intentions setup is pretty nice too.

Been through it multiple times. I think hearing a couple of them in person will help make my decision easier.

Gotta say, that Ark sounds very good. Any word on longterm quality/reliability?

My gripe with sound clip databases: most of them sound deceptive. They are all done with different cameras, with different microphones, and many other variables that can change how they truly sound. Never mind it all depends on your speakers at home, too...
