ARK Exhaust

How many people here have this exhaust. I've had it for about 2 months now and aside from a screw scrapes when getting car towed for a busted slave cylinder, it looks and performs amazingly.

So I wonder why is this exhaust not as popular as say a Borla or a Fast Intentions?

The reason I brought this one is because I previously did the muffler delete only to get multiple tickets regarding how loud it was. I had a court appearance where I had to show I had a new exhaust, and not wanting anymore tickets, I went with Ark because they had a Youtube showing how loud/quiet it was.

Side note: I definitely gained some hp with it. After installing it, I easily skidded out of the shop by accident giving it the same amount of throttle I was accustomed to before. So tell me, why not Ark?

I have the ARK catback and I love it. love it even more when I paired some FI RHFC to it.

Nothing wrong with the exhaust its just some people have different tastes. same reason why people choose the wheels they do. Money, sound, style, and fit

Try using the search function and you will see that some of the guys here have the Ark exhaust. I don't have, but my buddy has one and it sounds good and no drone.

@ChinkChoy - I searched around the forums earlier and someone stated with RHFC there was rasp. No rasp with your setup? If so, this is the next mod I will do.
