ARK's trash... don't any of you search before buying ANYTHING? make a thread talking trash about them, that's the only way they will answer you or try to resolve anything. Why aren't they banned from the site yet?
There is a thread DO NOT BUY ARK.
Title this thread DO NOT BUY ARK II
Next person to BUY ARK should be banned as well lol.

hi guys. sorry i haven't updated recently, been busy with family for Thanksgiving, but I am currently getting the issue resolved with Alex from Ark. I took some pictures and sent them to Ark. So far from what I have investigated, there IS a leak due to two respective phalanges not meeting up flushly.
My friend and I saw that the welding was done unevenly such that the bottom portion of one of the phalange sticks out, making it slanted and impossible for the top half to meet while crushing the bottom. I have done all that i can with the gaskets and positioning the exhaust in different ways.
Ark: It is not the center cross bar since i already took it off...

So is the Black bar in the picture the bar we should remove to get rid of the rattling? Because i Just installed the ark exhaust on my 2011 sedan and i'm getting rattling around 2000 rpm and at idle...

All install and finish is good. We had an another local customer and we did confirm the fitting and performance quality. And for the SEDAN, we had no complaints other than cross bar.
