Anybody have ARK on their 2012? Is the sound worth the pricetag?

usafboy · 04-13-2012, 10:25 PM

i have it on my 2011. sounds really good! i have the DT-S system. love the burnt tips! get comments all the time about them! no drone at all but still loud when wot. both N-2 or DT-S very much worth the price!

I've heard a lot of good stuff about ARK. I like their sound and personally I would get them but the price is a little too much. :(

I run the ARK N-2 on my 2011 1LT and absolutely love the sound. (IMHO, its totally worth what I paid for it.)

stlrammer · 04-13-2012, 10:43 PM

Okay what is ARK?

jmontalvo · 04-13-2012, 10:45 PM

ARK is a company that makes catbacks and other neat stuff for cars. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Wait for a sale. I was going to get Solo, but for kicks asked ARK what deals they had. They were willing to work with me since a sale had just ended so they extended it for me. The price came to be the same as the Solo. I now have blue tips.

ARK is the shizzel! I did have another catback before my ARK DT-S burnt tips and the ARK is far and away the better catback. Mirror polished 304 SS from end to end. The fit is 1st class. Yeah they are expensive but what's even more expensive is wasting your money on lesser systems and having them irritate you until you either go insane or buy the good stuff. Wait for a sale and then buy one, OP. With the 2012 u also may want to invest in the SOLO HFC's since you can't do headers. Both are pricey mods though. ARK is very awesoming though and you will dig.

i have the N-II on my 2012. Worth every penny!!! My buddy paid $950 for a new pro circuit pipe for his "dirtbike" when it first came out. paying a little more for a full catback system sounds very reasonable when you compare them both.

Love the comparison. Puts it all into perspective.

Being that that both Corsa and ARK are 304 SS but ARK goes to the extra trouble of mirror polishing their catback from front to back and Corsa does not, I'd say you've got it backwards. That said they're both fine exhausts. One is just a bit more impressive should you flip your Camaro.

Ark is awesome...the sound that comes out of it is just amazing! I get compliments on it all the time!
