350Butcher Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Following on from my last thread about controlling my volume to be track day friendly. Has anyone gone from running straight through decats to the motordyne ART pipes? What sort of reductions in volume do these offer? I know they are expensive but so is getting thrown off track days!!

Arran Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I went from running horsham silenced decats which wernt very silenced lol to art pipes and the difference is night and day Whilst the silenced ones sounded great they were far too loud so got motordyne art pipes and the sound is even better as they are a far better design but alot quieter at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT4 Zed Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I've got headers, Motordyne V2 ART pipes with a Miltek y pipe back exhaust and my zed is bordering on quiet. Mind you I had a very loud set up with the K1 so its relative. BTW I didn't note much difference in sound from my unsilenced decats to ART pipe.

350Butcher Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Cheers for your replies Arran, whats the rest of your exhaust setup? GT4 Zed, I don't think anything will make a K1 noticeably quieter! Did you run the straight decats and the ART pipes with your Miltek or only with the K1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) GT4 Zed, I don't think anything will make a K1 noticeably quieter! Did you run the straight decats and the ART pipes with your Miltek or only with the K1? Bennet's K1 setup was: headers, bag of nails, K1. Glad you changed it buddy, I can follow you at Wales next year without getting Tinitus! EDIT: Skip to 2:30... embedding doesn't work with the &t=150s option for youtube.

Arran Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 My setup is standard manifolds, art pipes followed by cobra 3" resonated cat back Sounds so brutal! Soon the be swapping the cobra for the true dual invidia gemini and hopefully some tomei expreme v2 manifolds to go with the art pipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
350Butcher Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Cheers for the info Arran, I'm thinking a pair of ART pipes are the way to go for my setup then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

350Butcher Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Arran, not far at all. Its nice when you get to that point where a cars where you want it Well I shall see if these take the edge off (plus hopefully add a bit of torque) as I've ordered a pair of ART pipes today.
