i have stillen cbe and test pipes, but they aren't ART. it sounds decent. when i had just the stillen cbe, there was zero rasp/drone. with the tp's there is some rasp usually 2,500-3,200 range. especially when the car is not warm. however, if you gun it from the rasp goes away. so normal driving there would be rasp

yeah I have berk TP's and stillen cbe now and that rasp (more like a rattle) is killing me. It sounds god awful. Can't gun it all day everyday. ART's will be here Monday so im hoping it fixes it. We'll see.

I really do wish you good luck.
I had an akrapovic and got the ART pipes shortly after.
It was the worst thing i have ever heard. I am pretty sure people around me thought it was a Honda

I sold it all in under a weeks time. If i have been explained right, The exhausts are the one that has a major factor in rattle/sound.
Some exhausts dont have 'rattle' (I understand what you have, Its not rasp, Its something much worse. I had it)

I wish you good luck really, But be prepared to put down money for another exhaust or not use Test pipes

The ARTs actually completely solved all rasp and rattle. Its pretty much sounds like I still have the cats on to be honest now. Its not very loud at all for test pipes. I was super surprised after so many on here said it wouldnt fix it
