Wished it was made in the states but good quality none-the-less.

I am down for this exhaust also once we get pricing information. It would be great to have the option of not having burnt tips though. Any updates???

I guess no one cares about performance. I haven't seen one post (unless I missed it) that discusses dyno results and people are all set to buy this. I also like the sound, but would like to see know performance specifications before I even CONDIDER buying ANY exhuast system. I guess that's just me though : )

honestly, with a catback exhaust system, youre looking at almost identical gains from every manufacture. its more about the tone and quality when choosing the catback imo. Now, i will be interested in how much it makes with a header attached. Thats where the REAL gains will come into play.

Which begs the next question, will you be making headers for the car as well ARK? and if so, please post up gains, runs, and videos.

I have no doubt that the system will produce more WHP but like another poster stated at this point its more about the tone. ARK hasn't disappointed me so far and they always post the WHP gains anyway. This system for my G37 gave me 14 WHP and ARK shows the dyno chart on their website.

We do not "okay" an exhaust system if it does not produce any power. Also we will release detailed info on our dynos with our final production unit.

ARK FT86 - when you recorded that video, whas that a catback only change or was that with the cat removed also? Just curious because I would hate to expect my car to sound like that only to find out there was more to it. Power gains as others have said would be great to see, but it sounds like you are on it. Any ETA on when the production version will be ready to release?

That was good to know.

Not to get to far off topic, but, I really conidered betting a G37 for sometime now. I bought the BRZ. Are you compeletey happy with the change? (if you posted this somewhere else, just send me link)

The next update will be up next week. We will be able to release more information on the layout of the exhaust.

Already enroute for 2nd prototype. If all goes well, then we are looking at 1 to 1.5 months for final production landing date.

Many tips options will be available. We are also looking into different exhaust designs as well.

As stated, the dyno results will be released with the testing of our final production model to best represent gains from our #'s to yours

We will provide dynos in this manner.

The recording was just the Catback only.
