If that's the case then these still seem like a good alternative to the solos

moE_09 · 04-23-2015, 09:34 PM

Sorry to revive an old thread but does anybody have any more videos? My solo cats just failed on me and im thinking to go a different route maybe

crc91 · 04-23-2015, 11:35 PM

It's no problem man. I know these are much cheaper then the solos. But idk if they ever really took off. I don't hear much people talking about these anymore. If I recall correctly they outflow the solos but they do throw a code. But it's nothing a flash couldn't fix

sycraft · 04-24-2015, 03:28 AM

They have no cats I thought. Why not gut solos

how long did you have them before they failed? the ARH ones are fine just use the rear o2 extender just like the solo ones use.

I personally don't mind as I can turn them off in my tune, but I thought you guys would like to know. I went ahead and called ARH to ask them about it and the guy I talked to said I had to have my car tuned to have those codes turned off, and they were never designed to try and keep the code off.

Reading back through the thread, I see that the OP has some o2 sensor extenders installed which are probably what's keeping his CEL off. So keep that in mind if you do decide to buy these and you are concerned with the CEL staying off. I don't know if you can get them direct from ARH, or if you have to go with something aftermarket.

any updates. I've been following the thread and I am interested in ARH. I was agreeing when you stated on the price point on the Solo's. What was the price point for these?

Twin Town Terror · 06-12-2015, 10:26 AM

I would like to hear some updates also if there are any

If I'm reading their site correctly (the description doesn't match the part chosen) the price is $350 for no cats $475 with. Gaskets, clamps, O2 extension and harness included.

It's pretty much as I left it...

I called them to ask about the CEL coming on, the guy told me I need a tune to make it stay off. I did NOT receive gaskets (I reused my old ones), I did not receive o2 sensor extensions, and they did not offer to send them to me when I called them about the CEL, and I did not receive any kind of harness (I assume you're talking about an o2 sensor harness extension?... If so, it was not needed without o2 sensor extensions, and may not even be needed with o2 sensor extensions)

Your prices are correct. If anyone does call them to order either the catted, or non catted, pin them down on what exactly you are going to receive.

I ended up just disabling the codes that set the CEL for P0420 and P0430 cat inefficiency in my tune and left it at that.

Thanks for your info Jason! I understand what you're saying... And I'm willing to put up with the occassional 'lying vendor' or miss truths if the quality of the hard part is there, the performance is there, the price is right, and it doesn't sound like shit. I've only posted a few times on this forum and one of them was about Elite's clean side separator. You spend the time to fill out all the info about your vehicle on their website and then when you get their product you have to go to NAPA and buy more stuff to make it fit your vehicle. I, personally, am ok with it because the hard part ended up being a really nice piece that functions very well. The extra money... I would've spent any way...

I'm just interested in reviews. Does it sound good? Too loud? Not loud enough? Too much drone? No drone? No power increase??? Wish you never bought it? Or, other than some vendor issues, and some extra parts, it's pretty bad ass... Knocked a tenth off the ET... Are there other people than you and the OP who've bought it, but have O2 extenders, have those people had any CEL's??? Any no cat customers with extenders with CEL issues? I mean there must be more out there.... They're still offered...

Thanks

Having just found this thread today, and having to run off to work I can't spend the time to read each and every post from years back to current, but what I'd like to know is if anybody has drag strip information on either SOLO or ARH parts on the V6?? If that information is on here, or elsewhere, it would only be valid if all mods, if any, were tested seperately and true results know with weather conditions and other factors involved.
