I see very few ARK Grip dudes except eastwest2300 in Mid Atantic ... does it suck or something compared to FI ?

Hell no it doesnt suck, I love the exhaust, and Kirkster said it was a very good exhaust, and what Kirk says.... pretty much goes. You can take it as golden.

Didn't mean to imply that it sucked quality wise...just don't see that many so it's representation among the masses sucks as compared to more popular ones is what I meant. Seems everyone has FI. I am going to get one myself ... I missed the special for 1099 now it's back up to 1399 but might get it anyway. I read somewhere that the ARK lacks a drone on the highway as compared to others, and I like no drone.

If you like no drone then F.I. may be a deal killer for you. There is slight drone between 2000rpm - 2800rpm. Really only an issue when you are cruising in 6th at the speed limit. If you can make it out to a meet I would be happy to let you ride in the car so you can hear it first hand.

Other choices are Ark (eastwest), AAM True Dual (ZCarMan or 4r3s), and Berk (b1adesofchaos or Mighty Bobo). I think the only one with the Stillen is 2theextreme, and Cristobal has the Invidia Gemini while birdmanx, Zole, and me have the F.I.







Oh... and +1 to creeper status. I stalk everyone for their parts!

Many thanks ... hope to make it to one soon. So a pretty good mix there. I am sure they are all good. I was thinking about GTHaus for awhile, way before I even got the car. Then I got the car and started leaning towards FI. Now lately I like the ARK and then maybe a set of Motordyne test pipes along with it. I think to be able to hear some of the set ups in person would help greatly though. You Tube videos on a laptop do not really do any of them justice.

Not sure what the +1 creeper means. Hope it's not bad though

I know theres a few videos on here in one of these threads where we took videos of what these exhausts sound like.. I know I did one for the Ark.

eastwest2300 will no longer be the only Ark Grip 2v2 rolling around Maryland

...I also have a K&N Typhoon coming and the necessary crap to do the open fang air venting up to the K&N's. I feel like a kid at Christmas !
