I drove to the end of the street after install and drove back to the shop and took that **** off. I couldn’t stand it.

I bought used ART pipes of FB market place for the Z1 DE header. I also had VQ ART pipes on the factory VQ header and it sounded killer.

I wonder if the noise is a product of lower quality test pipe (thin wall tube?) or simply due to the straight though non-catted design. Seems like it’s noticeable on resonated test pipes and HFC too
