haha. when I bought these, I wasn't really looking at gains, I was purely interested in upgrading sound. Therefore, even if it was like 3 hp and 1 tq gain, I probably didn't really mind about it

oh no that's cool man, i'm not trying to rain on your parade... I think it looks and sounds good like I said... i'm looking at several different exhausts myself and trying to get a good balance of power and sound.

I remember you had a thread about deciding on an exhaust what did you decide to go with? I think you just got art pipes correct? What do you think about them?

I am quite torn actually... I am thinking about the F.I. strongly, BUT ARK has their type 1 coming out and so does Motordyne and after feeling what the ART pipes do, I REALLY want to wait on Tony to complete his set-up but I don't know how long it will be which is ok, it's better to wait than to buy something and then wish you had waited. Honestly i've thought alot about the Invidia... not a high dollar exhaust, but it sounds really good with the ART pipe combo.

I just figure maybe it's better to have something you like the sound and look of, but also have one that is shown to have the most power gains. These exhausts are expensive and I want max power out of what I get.

On the ART pipes to answer your question though, they sound really good to me... gives QUITE a kick to my otherwise stock Z. I research things soooooooo much before I buy... i'm quite obsessive actually so that's not the best thing, but I wanted to make sure I got the best per dollar. The ART pipes seemed to be the best mix or quality, sound, definitely power and customer service... they are expensive yes, but I would buy them all over again.
