It sounds pretty good! I'd like to hear it under load with the car driving away and driving by.

I see the exhaust is bolt-on. Is the stock exhaust bolt-off or welded?

What is the weight difference between stock and Ark?

Are they made in-house by you all in California or ordered and shipped from SK?

If they are made in-house by you do you build them once the order is placed or are they ready to ship?

(last question) If they are built after the order is placed what is the turnaround from order to shipping?

I havent done any weight difference and I totally forgot about that so Ill do that as soon as I can

These are all built and manufactured by Ark Performance Korea and then shipped over state side and stocked here locally in Ontario, California

There are currently 3 systems in the USA.
One on my car and 2 that are ready to be picked up/shipped/installed

The next shipment of exhausts will be end of February to early March
So these 2 systems are first come first serve basis

As for shipping stanard is shipped via Ground
California to say Florida or New York is 4-5 business days
Anywhere closer is typically faster

I'm curious about this as well, since I'm leasing the car... Would we be able to put the stock exhaust back on the car, and return the car to original factory spec?

Totally missed that question but yes 100% bolt on
No cutting no trimming no anything

Just undo the 4 nuts holding the catback on and undo the rubber hangers and move the hangars to the new exhaust and install the new catback

ARK doesn't usually provide those unfortunately. Their Korean counterpart generally provides the dyno numbers, but I don't recall having branded charts for their past products.
