Hello Family,

I put ARH Lt's (1 7/8) factory connect with high flow cats on about 2 months ago with my whipple. The shop that did the install loved them. Said the fitment and qualtiy was perfect and spot on. They are LOUD in a good way I suppose. If you are thinking about headers I would really suggest looking into ARH.

I have it matched up with a borla touring system. This sytem needed some fab work to match up with the Lt's. However with the size of the borla resonator in this setup, it cut the drone about 75% (i assume it's more restrictive also). I love the fact that drone is minimized, just not sure if I like the tone/sound of the touring system anymore. At least coupled with Lt's.

I am now contemplating on changing out the touring system to something different. Not sure what just yet. DRONE is not my friend!

Any suggestion on a high quality exhaust system that would match up good with the ARH?

I would like a deep throaty sound. I will probably attach the factory resonator to whatever system to help out with drone.

How restrictive is the y pipe over the x?

I just got finished installing my full ARH exhaust on my lightning, and I'm interested in what everyone is seeing for hp gain. It was one hell of a project for me but got it done. Super throaty, where the stock lightning exhaust was just very mellow.

My tuner guy says he has dyno #'s showing a 25rwhp before tune, and an addititional 20rwhp after.

Depends if you want top end or low end. Not sure on the low end I have SW 7/8 and never had headers before love them worth every penny IMO. My thought was get as much exhaust out as posable.
