Went to the track. No time slip since it was "street" track night but got about 5 runs. Best was 13.8 @103. Still can do better but its my first time. Hopefully dyno soon.

You'll be mid 13s w/ some more seat time, not bad for the first time out.

Hope so. Couldn't get many runs since I was helping my friend that was having trouble with his car's traction control and by the time he fixed it, it was late and a bit full. Next time I will go in a time slip day.

Considering his mods and his HP... absolutely. Since it's a 7AT, the only thing that's holding him back are nerves. That, and maybe tires. But assuming a low elevation on a G37S RWD modded like this, should be knocking mid-13's off like clockwork.
Sounds like you're having all kinds of fun, Alfredo.

Alfredo, last weekend I got to drive a 2011 Sedan 6MT, tuned with a full ARK setup (ARK cat-back and cats, both which use that Helmholtz Resonator design.) Not quite the same as your AT with FI RHFC, but my first hands-on experience with ARK. And I didn't take it for a full run, just wound up 1st and 2nd a little bit for a short trip around the block.
Anyway... wow. The sound of that exhaust is perfect. Much better (IMO) than Fast Intentions, and exactly how I want my car to sound.
Actually, it was a little scary loud. But still want.
Alfredo youre killing me! Everyone wants you to break the 300whp barrier!
Lol sorry. Dyno is only by appointment and if its just for test pulls then it is only after 4 pm, so I can't seem to find a time to commit to but I will make it happen when I get the chance.

It really is a great sound and not a bad loud which you will dislike after a while. I never miss the quiet OEM setup and sometimes I wish it was a bit louder :P Anyway I think it will be quieter with the FI RHFC than with the ARK cats, since those are test pipes with that Helmholtz resonator on the side.

According to Albert (the guy with the full ARK setup), it was relatively normal for a catback, until he got the car tuned. Then it became loud. Really loud.
I can attest to that. His car is crazy loud. Here's a simple video of his car simply driving away.

Hmm..hard to compare my A/T with the M/T sound. I just hope it does not get too loud after my tune (which is hopefully in mid-June). But I have to dyno before getting tuned.
