Perhaps I'm looking at this from the perspective of *resonated* high-flow cats.
Yes, I'd agree with you there, I'm sure the resonators would make a difference. Unfortunately back when I was running HFC's no one offered resonated HFC's, so I don't have any experience with them.
I disagree with the fact that ark has no rasp or drone. It definitely did when I had it but not too sure if that was due to my Z1 HFC or not. It's been a while. One thing the ARK grip does have is hiss upon decel.
Here's a video of my car showing it when I had the Ark Grip
Don't get me wrong though, the ARK is a beautiful exhaust. Sounds great. But to say it doesn't have any drone or rasp is not entirely true, at least in my eyes.
Got the ARK installed yesterday. There was a firmer I Saud as the midpipes were marked wrong. Construction and finish / joints/ welds are top notch.
i am now running ARK Grip CBE with stock cats and no headers. Haven’t heard a cold start yet but yesterday on my way back from the shop, tried different rpm ranges and gears acceleration, decelerations, up/down shifts.
I can confirm firm absolutely no rasp. There is very slight humming drone if I am cruising at around 140km/hr in the 6th gear. Until the rpm is below 3k the drone is not event detectable unless you roll down the windows and try to hear...
love the throaty growl. I’ll post video of first cold start shortly
Just a general question, if I bought the hks hi power exhaust, and just from the axel back does anybody know if they’ll bolt into the remaining stock exhaust?

If it's like any other axle back, should fit with no issues.
Hey everyone!
So I have a 2011 G37x automatic that I’ve had for about 2 months now ... I deleted the Resonator only and not the muffler and tbh ... I regret it. I should’ve deleted the Muffler only not the Resonator. I kinda want to actually change my exhaust set up into something new ... any recommendations on something under $1000? Or should I just put back on the Resonator and delete the muffler... thank you !!

It's a lil more than 1k but I love my ark exhaust, I have a 2013 g37x sedan n have no regrets.
Yeah pretty expensive, but if you think about it, not too bad. Hell a full Motordyne for the AWD now runs $2000+, and obviously GTHaus is closer to $3000 and neither of those is titanium. Titanium is probably the best exhaust upgrade you can truly get for these cars, since in general we don't get big gains on exhaust. If you shave weight off in the process it adds up. Obviously a single would make sense in that case, but I just don't like the single look with these cars.
I will post pictures when I get it. I've already seen some of the ones he's made they look sick.

Serious bragging rights.
