ART pipes will be more powerful and quieter, but they smell. I would have bought those but I live in Socal.

I also have F.I Resonated-HFC , so far :
- Hissing sound annoying .
- They are lower than stock cats .
- You will not use the cross brace that hold the OEM cats .
- No extra 3-bolt gasket between the manifold and the HFC.

Regarding power i feel little gain over stock cats , i am planning to do tuning next week . Will see the result.

-The hissing sound comes with any HFC.
-Tony from FI told me that using the brace with HFC's could eventually crack a weld on the Cat. When the cats heat up they swell and as they cool they shrink.
-How much lower do they hang, is it the resonater that's lower?

OP - if you plan on installing them yourself, do yourself a favor and have a dealership break the two bolts facing UP on BOTH sides. it's next to impossible to get it off by yourself, 100% guaranteed.
