Ark Grip with Catless/Catted setup?
 
Does anyone in 626 area has Ark Grip with CAtted or catless frontpipe setup? im debating on what setup should i go,? im not planning of going catless header, ill stick with the stock. Maybe clips?

i had an ARK grip with stock headers and catless front pipe and it sounded nice. there's a nice little rasp to it. catless or high flow cat front pipe wont make much of a difference in terms of sound based on my experience. i had catless front pipe before and now im running with HFC front pipe and it didnt make any difference. if anything, it just made the drone louder insider the cabin. :happyanim:

a catless vs a catted front pipe actually makes a lot of difference in sound from my experience.. I think you couldn't tell the difference because the catback will soak up most of the sound, but if you are straight piped, its night and day....

I have a clip of the Ark DTS, catless Berk, stock header. So...you can imagine this sound but slightly quieter as the Grip is a little more quiet than the DTS.

Hope it helps (Sorry, I don't know how to embed videos =[). Oh and it makes a BIG difference.

If you're not doing a header, I'd go catless.

Does it give you raspy sound when i go with catless?

i would highly recommend going headers and the only reason because it will be the most useful exhaust mod for power. if your trying to stay legal. JDL and Ft86speedfactory makes catted headers.

i can help you install
