MOTORDYNE ART Pipes - Review

harp00n · 01-18-2012, 05:18 AM

just got them today:

is it v1 or v2 version? i believe the last one had some dark ceramic coating, not the chrome like mine?

G37sHKS · 01-18-2012, 08:16 AM

From the picture, i say its the lastest version because of the barcket on the resonators..

Correct me if im wrong Tony

harp00n · 01-18-2012, 09:35 AM

yeah, it seems to be the latest version, because of the brackets.

well, I hope tomorrow I will take my car to the muffler shop so they would start modding the pipes to fit my AWD sedan

Are the same updates (tabs, no glasspack, no screen) updated on the 350z version as well?

Buying from CCC, would i get the same support from MD? Or to be sure i get the latest versions?

Yes, this is the latest version.

If you buy any new Motordyne part from an authorized dealer it will always be the latest edition.

And this is why you'll get my business and recommendations, you're doing something good that's actually worth the (albeit slightly spendy) asking price.

You're always around answering questions and generally being dedicated, it makes people feel good and i hope it earns you the reputation you deserve.

Thank you

So, another AWD G is happy!

My shop had to mod them to fit AWD transfer case:

I like them really MUCH, good quality and they are just 10% louder than my ex Berk's HFC after 3000rpm and the same on the low rpms! And I can feel torque sligthly better at lo-mid rpms (2500-4000).

As I know, I am the second or third one with the ART pipes installed to the AWD G

I haven't had the chance to read through this whole thread, but I'm interested in seeing any Dyno results before/after getting the ART pipes.

Exhaust sound of ART pipes -> Morosol spiral flow resonators -> Borla true dual cat-back on VQ35HR:

Motordyne · 01-21-2012, 06:49 PM

Is there anybody in So. Cal. with an AWD G37?

I'll design them to fit. The problem is getting access to an AWD in the Los Angeles area.

So, there is no break-in period for the current pipes and they will sound the same after 1500 miles, won't they?

And I hope, that moving the passengers side branch resonator won't affect anything and both pipes will pass the exhaust gases the same way!

Motordyne · 01-22-2012, 10:08 AM

Correct, there is no break-in period. They are now made with nothing in them. They are just empty resonance chambers.

What I did find is that moving the resonator does change its function but with the amount you moved it, it wont be much.
