I put my art test pipes on this past friday and all i have to say is worth every penny. I have it matched up with the cnt cbe and it sounds great. No drone and only at rare times do i hear rasp. And even at those times its quick and very faint. I had the cnt resinated test pipes on before that and the rasp was more then i could deal with. Not putting down cnt's test pipes. Great build quality at a good price. The rasp is just not my thing.

ART Pipes are great but I woulnd't use them for FI personally as they will definitely not breath enough. I'd go with a 3" or bigger test pipe.

supercharger the 2.5" is perfect.

for FI the 2.5 will work fine. 3" dual would be ideal though. But ive seen setups with 2.5" make alot of power.

ART pipes ordered. Now just have to find an installer.

Shipping updates?

Got mine today. Apparently "Fragile" Means that the Fedex guy should use it as a chair for lunch...I would have said something but I had to have them leave it at my house since I wouldn't be home when it was delivered.

The gaskets were a bit mangled, but i flattened them out and they aren't ripped or anything.

The pipes look great. I just hope they aren't bent a little by whatever squashed the box.

Now I need to find some time to get these installed!

That's terrible.

Where would you like me to send replacement gaskets?

Pm'd. Class act Tony.

I tried ordering Friday and he told me to wait until he knows for sure that they're in stock. Estimating that they would become in stock July 6th or 7th.

Soooo... Would it be generally agreed that if I was to make one, and only one mod to my 370Z, and I had no more than $500 to play with, I should buy these art pipes? Also, does anyone have any comment on the effect of these on MPGs? Slight increase, decrease, the same?

if your looking for more power and a deeper exhaust tone then yes.

If your looking for Pink Hello Kitty stickers then no

Hot out of the kiln.

They should all be out of the kiln later today.
