Did you give them a call?? I think they are still looking for one. You should hit them up!

I'm not sure if this exhaust will fit. If the exhaust length and lines are the same, you will probably have to have to modify the dual tip to a single tip. But if you are local you might want to call them and check out the exhaust. They have lifts since they do installs and r&d.

I am really starting to consider this exhaust. I'm in the market and have been racking my brain in making a determination. At the moment I'm debating between this and the Meisterschaft GTC w/EV.

My bro has an APR exhaust on his GTI which uses the same HR technology/theory and he gets minimal drone only at certain RPM's

The reason I am not completely sold on ARK is that they basically went with stock size tips. If I am going to upgrade I want the appearance as well.

OP, can you get some close up pics at a couple different angles of the tips? TIA

I think most companies are unable to go with larger tips since the exit for the exhaust is not that wide.
I'll take some pics for you tomorrow during the day.

Still interested in seeing the tip size. This system is now back on my #1.

Hey dude

That sounds like an amazing exhaust. I have been trying to find one I like fore like half a year now for my car and this might be the one! Most exhausts have a fart noise when they shift that I just cannot stand. I was looking at Eisenmann but thats 2k just for the muffler :/ Only think I'm worried about is that fact that they say intended for off-road use only. Does that mean it won't pass smog? Don't wanna have to deal with that on my daily. And do you think you could show me how it sounds in real life? I think you are from my area. Oh ya, and does it retain the factory valve control system?

Thanks
