Yeah me too I have HFC with Invidia exhaust (just sold it about 15 minutes ago) and Just sent the money for my Ark (5 minutes ago) people who say this is a luxury car and shouldn't be loud.. you can take any car in 2 directions.. luxury or aggressive..

If you're looking for a "luxury sounding" exhaust, this is definitely not it. If you are looking for an aggressive, powerful, deep, exotic sounding exhaust, then this is the one for you. In my opinion i think it is perfect, but I do know that a lot of "non-modding-enthusiasts" will consider it too loud.
As tpc303 has already stated, "to each their own".

does anybody have a rattle on cold starts/or while the car is warming up only at certain RPMs? holmes35 and I suspected it was the oem muffler's heat shield but its not...any ideas? (we both have it)

also i just want to make sure, but can someone please let me know which of the straight-ish pipes goes on which side? we put the one that is bent a little upwards on the right side of our cars...is that right?

No rattles here. If you put the pipes on wrong the tips won't align properly (made that mistake). Do the tips of your exhaust line up perfectly to the rear of your car?

it aligns quite well, but i can figure out what the rattle is. im guessing its just an install fail on my part...like a loose bolt or something...but it is only when the engine is cold...?

Strange can you record the sound or lift the car while it's running to pinpoint?

have any of u guys let one of your trusted friends drive the car around while you listen to the exhaust from the outside. IMO, you will love it even more when you hear it from afar.

btw, here are the pics when i had my ark. it took almost 30mins trying to figure out how the pipes were set up.
