Anyone have Stillen CBr & ART test pipe combo?
 

Curious to know what it sounds like if so. I can't find anything on the youtubes. :icon14:

Title should say Stillen CBE

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'm not sure if the art's will fix it.. i have resonated tp's and i still get that rasp/rattle. but if it does let me know :D

well im hoping it atleast tones it down it bit, its super obnoxious at the moment. I feel like everyone I drive by must be thinking wow.....what a piece of sh*t. lol

haha, yea i'm not sure how bad yours is compared to mine, but i also think that at times.

All you need to do is swap the freaking TP for HFC, rasp, rattles and drone will be gone for good.

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 :inoutroflpuke:

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

I'm in this exact same spot right now and I've been searching for a thread like this for weeks now so this is awesome. It helps me tremendously. Any chance you could YouTube it and post a link?

Awesome that it worked out for u.
Guess ARTs pair well with stillen cbe

Yeah ill try to get something up tonight might be dark though since im in an apartment, dont have a lighted garage, but youll be able to hear it.

sounds nice... however when i'm at a stand still and i rev my car like that there is no rasp/rattle sound. but when i'm driving and get in the 2.5-3.5k rpm range is when you can hear it.

Yeah I know exactly what your talking about, you could still hear it a little before at stand still with the BERK pipes. Thats the whole reason I switched over the ART, now the noise is completely gone even when moving.:happydance:

I tried to record the rattle with the berks on my phone before I took them off but it didnt pick it up very well even though it was super loud.

posted above, Your Z looks sick btw! I need to save some $$$

Hey I was just wondering with the set up you have, stillen cbe with the art pipes, if you needed to get a tune!
