Tony these look awesome! I can't wait to install these. How did you guys manage to squeeze more power down low?

if we have the previous v1 art pipes and want to upgrade/swap, are u offering a discount if we trade up...??... i think SPL does that when they come up with revisions that iron out the kinks..

Does upper mid to High rpm power suffer any with the v2?

Also, is the V2 more resistant to throwing a CEL?

Thanks Tony

The performance is slightly better with the new design but don't bother switching if you already have ART pipes. The ART pipes are already vastly improved over regular test pipes.

And they have identical resistance to to throwing a code.

Tony, could you give some numbers on how much torque is gained with the new design? Are we talking like 1 or 2 ft. lbs? If so, then phew...

Also for sound, will they be as quiet as the stock cats?

You hook these up to the Shockwave))) TDX you won't have any problems with it not being loud enough.

You will be running wide open and straight through from the block to the exhaust tips.
