Currently running ark DTS cat exhaust. Thinking bout adding the ark front test pipe as well. Anyone have this? Comments? Says on description I've read that it's " for off road use only" any idea why?

I have the DTS with the ARK test pipe, I love it. It's "offroad use only" because it removes one of the Cat's, there for it wont pass emissions.

We don't have strict emissions rules here so I'm not to concerned.

Thanks. I'm assuming it adds more power and is louder than just having the dts system alone.

If you have an auto, it won't fit, FYI. And it does add power........... 1-2whp, which is somewhat negligible. This is the case for pretty much every front pipe.
