Got any sound clips to share?

The ones on the link are dead.

What are the measures.. is this a true 3" exhaust?
I couldn't careless bout true dual or not.. more piping = yuck. Esp since I'm single turbo lol.

curious how this will sound with a turbo application.

thanks
I thought ebay made that mistake. That is weird that u guys would call it "True Dual". It will confuse a lot of people by just mentioning "TRUE DUAL" while trying to sell the exhaust, dont you think?

Not too long ago they had one up for auction on ebay at less than 700 bucks plus shipping. Now at that price this might be more interesting. The y pipe narrows to 2.5" to match the diameter of the mid pipe, which is a good thing. That dia prolly works well with an otherwise stock setup, but a "tuned" NA car with HFCs, plenum and CAI should make better use of a 3" mid like Fuji or JIC, IMO.

Ark this............

If I was going to spent this kind of $ for an exhaust system I'd be looking
at a known company. This system looks like every other single system on
the market and most of them don't cost what Ark is asking.....is there a
warranty? I'm on my third exhaust system and I wouldn't buy an unknown
brand.....unseen...untested!

Gary, Why did you change 3x exhaust? did you buy brand name?
If we tells forum members, Which private lebel exhaust system we made it, you will be surprised. No offence, but there is alot of brand name exhaust system on the market produced same manufacture, but even it is same manufacture product, there is big difference on quality, material , technology, etc.

Samething as Z350 and G35 price. looks same sport car, but price is different. Why? just for brand image? or there different...

I'm not saying our catback is best, But it is Superb quality system. Even Acura NSX community known our catback for while, they pay just for axleback systems for more than $1000.00, and they happy with us.
you can't really compare the 350z's price to the g35's price...

I don't think you can put down any company trying to put out products for any vehicle. Everyone has there own opinion and thats fine but don't knock down what you don't now for sure. Ark's products are as well made as any company out there working to get any car enthusiates business. Its interesting to see that there is a good discussion about this because people are always interested in new products. Ark is right to say that a manufacturer makes a product and sells it and then its renamed for theres but Ark is a true manufacturer and stands by there product like well know names out there.

It will take sometime to understand but just becuase its new doesnt mean its a good product. If 50% of the forum members bought Arks products and raves about how good it is, I know for sure that you would think its a good product.

I think I am the first one on this forum with there muffler and coilovers and both products are well made and I would'nt lie on this forum. The reason for a forum is to hear true and candide responses of products and cars instead of hearing if from the dealer and sales people.

TWO THUMBS UP FOR ARK
and I am proud to see a Korean company coming up and producing well made products for imports and even domestics.

All this is IMO and everyone has there right to say anything they like.
