QX70 5.0 Intake & Exhaust Party!!!

[PEEJ]

Getting the test pipes installed this Thursday!

 

[Themechanic]

Cant wait to see what they look like bro.

 

[GEE50FX]

And I want to hear how they sound.

 

[RIPnFX]

Peej is lagginnnn lol

 

[PEEJ]

lol I thought I would've already had them installed last Friday.

 

[Athlon]

Would definitely like to hear how it sounds when complete. I love my ARK Grips as well! The looks are priceless on the faces of other drivers when they hear you rumbling up to pass and they glance towards their rear view. lol Puts a big smile on my face every time. This exhaust definitely commands road presence!

Not true, I installed an Ark late spring and drive around 1700km/mo as the '50 is my daily ride; no trouble with cops. And I live next to a po po station!

Generally speaking an fx50 doesnt get too loud anyways due to the 4 cats in the system. Unless you do test pipes & headers.

 

[Athlon]

Awesome sound! How is the drone with these on? Any issues with check engine lights and emissions?

 

[PEEJ]

There is zero drone on the 5.0 with the ARK exhaust. Even with test pipes and a custom intake noise in he cabin is orders of magnitude quieter than the ARK+3.7 alone.

I have 6 resonators and 2 mufflers and she's still got a nice growl

Super sound ! Did you heard any difference with new air filters ? Waiting for my Invidia Gemini to come :D

 

[PEEJ]

There is zero noticeable difference with the K&M vs OEM. I've already swapped back to the OEM filters.

Good move, and now you have no worries of the filter oil screwing up your MAF sensors. I stick with OEM also.

nope. I have K&N but tbh you can run factory and be fine...
