+1 for ARK GRIP. Great growling sound and cool blue tips.

nabenson · 10-19-2012, 12:46 PM

A buddy of mine has the blue-tipped ARK on a Hyundai Genesis (2013). It looks good, sounds good, and made good power. It's not a 370z but the product is very nice.

If you get the F.I. seriously consider the 18" resonator. I started with the 12" and ended up having to upgrade because it simply made too much noise too much of the time. It sounded great, but my hearing was taking a beating. There is no performance difference between the two. The 18" has the same great sound, but it's about 30% less loud.

^^Yours is the carbon fiber or ss? Carbon fiber is slightly louder too. Performence wise, what's the difference between the stock Nismo and FI cbe? What your butt dyno tells you? Have you ended up with a new tune?

Mine is SS. TBH, I had already done intake and HFC before I did the cat-back so the gains were hard to tell. It feels like it has slightly better throttle response, but nothing like the gains I felt from the HFCs.

I have not tuned yet. That's the next step - I have the Motordyne intake manifold, HFC, Nismo R-tune intake, and the F.I. exhaust. I'm sitting at about 290whp (100 degree day in Dallas, TX). I expect to break 300 when it's all said and done.

FI has by far the best gains and is very good sounding as well, but sadly there is a long wait time

ubs234 · 10-22-2012, 05:14 AM

haha well thanks for providing me with the link and information! I ordered the exhaust yesterday.

ubs234 · 10-22-2012, 05:37 AM

What's the difference between 12 inch or 18 inch resonated?
Which one is legal?

18 inch is quieter and if there is a decibel bylaw in your area, it is just on the cusp of that. The 12 inch would be above most decibel level bylaws.
