Price Aside...Stillen vs ARK Exhaust

[k67p67]

Maybe you can post of sound clip of your custom setup to help us judge whether or not it

...sounds exactly the same if not better.

?

i had an exhaust shop cut off the stock catback at the flanges, weld in a $50 stamped x pipe connected to 2 18" vibrant resonators out through 2 magnaflow mufflers. everything is running through 2.25 piping. all in all i spent around $600 for something that sounds exactly the same if not better.

Can you post a sound clip?

[Hey jazzfan]

I also had an exhaust shop cut mine right after the primary cats. We then ran 2 1/2 inch pipe to an 2 1/2 inch X pipe. Then 2 1/2 inch all the way back to the stock mufflers while also removing the resonators, secondary cats and the flex pipe. It cost me $481 and it sounds amazing! I have friends with modified mustangs and M5’s. This exhaust fits right in with all those cars it’s so sweet. Next I’ll be doing some new blue chrome exhaust tips just for looks. If I can figure out how to post videos I will send a couple

[Hey jazzfan]

Best part about it is I can feel the difference in power. I know there will be some of you who doubt that, but I actually had it done from the secondary cats back at first. Then drove the car for a week. I felt a little more power but didn’t feel it sounded mean enough. So I went back and had secondary cats removed and the flex pipe . I can tell you it is a major difference. I can spin the tires at will and slide sideways whenever I want. I love my car. Also just to mention I did at the same time put in the K&N drop in filters. Two other awesome things I’ve done are the RSR lowering springs, and Monday I ordered my new wheels. Rohana RX5’s. 20x11 rear and 20x10 fronts.295’in back. I’ll post pictures of those if I can figure it out as well.

Here’s a clip of my exhaust from a coldstart. Sounds a little more intense on the video. In person it sounds perfect. Driving around it has no drone at all. Just a sweet rumble almost exactly like a Mustang. I get comments on a weekly bases. Every valet driver is in shock when they pull my car up from the garage. I always get asked what’s in that. The last guy said “ That sounds like the DEVIL!!”

Maybe it's the recording but that cold start sounded awful. The revs didn't sound bad.

Maybe a new camera will do the trick and bring out the sound little better.

I have stillen on my 11M37s and love it, that's just me fellas.

I love my setup. Invida hfc'S, full Stillen system and Takeda intakes

no drone and at normal speeds it's just as quiet as oem. yeah, i'm not happy about the fact that they don't give you a y pipe but i'm sure they had a reason.

ARK does look good but way too much more plus one thing that I can already see that I wouldn't like on that one. no backfire sounds. "yeah, call me weird" but my current setup does some from time to time that make it sound even better lol even with the factory y pipe on

It's been like two years since i got my setup and i have to say that even know i still like it A LOT!!!
the only difference now is that i added a Y-Pipe

well worth it to me

[Hey jazzfan]

How do you get the pics to show and not link?

[stm37s]

You will probably have to go to one of the web sits similar to photo bucket, some people use tapatalk and tinypics to name a few. Some of the other members will chime in and point you in the right direction as well.

Your M56S looks sweet my brother.
