Art pipes review
I received my art pipes in only 3 days from nissan race shop (GOOD SERVICE). All the welds and the finish looked like the pictures from motordyne, great quality. The install took about an hour at a local shop. When i started it up i could tell a difference (MAYBE DEEPER) in the tone a little, but a lot less drone idling.
SOUND: Driving with the windows down the sound has been amplified no doubt, you really can tell after about 3K RPM, its louder but only when i drive aggressively which is perfect for me. There might be some rasp i cant tell just yet, but that could be because they arent broken in yet. 9/10
PERFORMANCE: Im actually getting better fuel efficiency by 2-3 MPG on the highway. Gains are noticeably great down low and good up high.(Butt Dyno) 9.8/10
FITMENT:Fitment was good, only issue was the lower tabs, we just simply bent them in so the lower bracket could fit with out too much stress, 9.5/10
OVERALL: In the end im very happy with them, sounds good,performs great and it wasnt too much of a hassle to get installed.
I''ll be adding an exhaust clip later on, currently im using a Invida N1, which is loud.

Motordyne makes the best products for our Infiniti's and the only down side to ART pipes is the stinky exhaust. I had mine on for a whole week, seven days of not being able to keep my windows rolled down. Fast Intentions HFCs took care of the smell and I still have that sweet sound of my HKS dual system with it's Magnflow x-pipe blending the pulses from each bank!
