well what happened was....lol....i actually ordered the ART pipes and due to a stocking mistake, they didnt actually have the ART pipes to sell...so they called me back to cancel my order! They are sold out, so i gotta wait about 7 weeks

but am at the top of the call back list as soon as they get them in,,,and when they do am heading straight to the shop to get these on and dyno'd

its not about the stock exhaust, its about the Y pipes. and its not because its cheap..

actually all the Y pipes that have 2.5" and 3" merge will have high gains from mid to top but drop in low end...

here some examples..

Tanabe Y pipe VS MotorDyne Y pipe
Tanabe has 60MM dual to 70MM merge.

Stock Y pipe Vs Motordyne Y pipe (stock car)

so wow.. gratz on ur 40$ Y pipes.. cheap Y pipe ftw

I jumped on it. I am still on the fence about getting TPs or HFCs. I have one of the Top Speed cat backs at work collecting dust waiting for me to install it. I heard this exhaust with berks and a jic magic Y and it sounded pretty good with no noticeable rasp. I plan to do a similar setup.

The data imported into Excel for analysis is not smoothed so its a little bumpy but this is the raw unaltered data from Winpep 7.

Some repeatable dynos of this and I'm sold bud.

GREEN = Bone Stock 370Z
RED = aftermarket CBE w X pipe + generic TP's + tune
BLUE = Y pipe w stock CBE + ART TP's + stock ECU

Detailed comparison shows some losses down low with the ART TP's that are most likely due to the absence of a tune (compare with tuned dyno), with gains of 5-7 whp and torque throughout the power band over regular TP's with the ART TP's -- very impressive considering the tune is probably not optimal.

Looks like they found a way to massage a little extra power out of their design. Nice!

Kastley, what do the ART pipes cost and are resonated / relatively rasp-free?

Kastley85891 · 01-28-2011, 09:29 PM

415 on MD site, PM or call Tony he is pretty decent.
Very little rasp, nice sound.

Hmm. Still makes ebay TP's the best bang for the buck, but if people want to pay for the brand names, the Motordyne pipes look to be the clear winners. Nice gains!

docaam · 01-29-2011, 12:25 AM

thats some sweet gains, now I need to check mine with a tune

GZ3 · 01-29-2011, 12:39 PM

will have my dyno up monday for the ART pipes....thanks kast!

Boost_lee · 01-29-2011, 01:32 PM

^^ they sound good btw on stock exhaust

[QUOTE=Jordo!;916582]

Thats really good detail without using a spreadsheet.

Did you use the shop dyno computer to generate it?

Jordo! · 01-29-2011, 03:24 PM

^^^ Thanks

I have the winpep software. I just overlay the graphs in paint in order to have multiple cursors that highlight gains/losses at different points in the rev range.

Sure wish you guys could bring the price down on these bad boys... they offer nice gains over standard TP's, but a bit out of my price range

Need a 7AT test car who clearly has no problem collecting massive amounts of data and sharing the results with others on public forums?
