There is no "good deal" on ARC stuff. Just more or less lube for the a$$ raping you take.

Unless Jhambor, you like their products and can afford em. Some of there stuff in jaw dropping beautiful, intakes and recovery cans. I remember my first Nissan/Infiniti show, '05 Toys for Tots event and how bitchen the ARC looked. You don't like ARC, fine who cares....Gary

^ Or that 75% could go with another brand that is just as high quality or at least 99% as high quality, but at a fraction of the price. With the added benefit of actually having proven performance applications. (ex: HKS)

ARC isn't the only high quality parts manufacturer out there guys. It's just the only one who manages to get away with incredibly overpriced items....



..because they look good.

Before you guys think i'm knocking on ARC, you're wrong. I'd rock their parts all day and all night if I was ever going down the route of show car.

It's just not for everyone.

I'd have to agree with that statement. Nothing against ARC but...

Just because an ARC exhaust cost more and is "JDM", does it mean it's a better overall exhaust than a USDM Motordyne exhaust at a fraction of the price? Or is the Motordyne exhaust just a knockoff of the ARC true dual?
