I dunno... It borrows more from ARK with the parallel resonators and X-Pipe system instead of an H-Pipe or True Dual from HKS.

Its come parallel from the cats ,no X or H before the resonators. Just saying, cuz HKS tips are removable too, not the ARK.
I used to have one before switching to ARK.

The kit in this post is from DNA Motoring. It has an X-Pipe right before the dual parallel resonators, and removable tips on the "Burnt" styling. If you choose regular stainless tips, they are welded on and rolled like OP's. The only section it borrows from HKS is removable tips on the Burnt version, otherwise it is almost entirely ARK's design.

HKS's Design:

Ok...

JckHmr · 04-24-2017, 06:39 AM

I'm referring specifically to the Burnt tips version of the DNA Motoring kit.

THAT is the only relation to HKS. Otherwise the Stainless Rolled tips and everything else is like ARK.
I mean, it's pretty evident right?

Not trying to hurt your feelers. Just proving a point

Gotcha! I've heard both in person and ARK has a far superior exhaust note IMO.

When I had the DNA exhaust I made 308hp/251tq, that was with Z1 intakes and Uprev.

Why'd u take them off? I currently have AAM short tails and FI un resonated test pipes but looking for something more aggressive, so I might go for rhe exhaust

Another project required a larger exhaust. BTW i'm pretty sure it was still 2.25" so you may want to keep that in mind as I think those FI test pipes are 2.5".

MORE aggressive? Only thing I could think is a Tomei catback with the resonator removed, but then your ears would ring for about an hour after you got out of the car..
