Coupler looks the same as the magnaflow, I hope you use stronger bolts. The ones they provided were way to weak. Looking good though, nice exhaust.

Yes, several test before release actual product making right performance, right fitting, right sound,... It is our slogan " Xtreme quality makes Xtreme Performance ".

And we just tested today ARK Short Shifter and ARK 2 style exhaust system( tested 06 Scion - Had 200mile) with new 2006 scion just see if any difference. And we found some other difference btw 2004 and 05. But still ARK short shifter works great !! And we did test with our DT-S and N2 drifting style exhaust system. Looks everything went smooth again with a fitting , gains, design, Air flow, sound decibel etc... Check our pictures ~~ And sound clip coming next week soon.


ARK STS installed


Just spyshot ARK DT-S - Can't show you all


N2 Drift style
