Keep Grinding & Stay Humble! Yeadat ~
Phong.
Need to take that ugly diffuser off. Takes away the look of the bad ass tips
Appreciate the input, the rear diffuser hasn’t been my favorite piece to the kit. But changes are happening, stay tuned!
PhongVLG stay “tuned” ;)
Yo its your boy from Honda. Glad to see you on the TH-cam. Be safe out there.
Another helpful Honda dealer?
Got the ARK exhaust on my Type R. Makes it sound NASTY!! Worth the 💴
Catted sound better imo...no hating bro💪
allo cromeau yup catless too loud and obnoxious
I agree ☝️
I agree up to when it hit the rev limiter. Still prefer the catted one.
I’m glad I watched this because I almost bought a catless downpipe for mine 😂
Same here😂 the catted car sounds way better. Cleaner sound and definitely less obnoxious. The exhaust all together sounds good so no need to make it annoying with a catless system.
My opinion obviously so to each their own, but glad to see I’m not the only one thinking it.
Great video! Love the sound of this exhaust!
The black si sounds better to me, prolly gonna get those pipes. Good vid, thanks.
Ok, even if your thinking about giving them away I think you should keep the center console. That part, in personal opinion, completes the interior. Chant wait to see the rest of the wrap. Take care and thank you for these vids to watch.
The turbo sound on those pulls on the gray one 🤤
Sick AF!! Definitely need to look into exhaust modifications for my EX coupe after watching this video dude! 😎🤙🏾🔥
Nice video. Sounds awesome! Was your buddy fully catted? I have a downpipe but it has 400 cells, so curious how this will sound on mine. I just ordered.
also mate, you can get a back bumper add on so it doesn’t look weird with just exhaust it’ll look like the 2018 plate but looks better
You should try PRL race down pipe & front pipe with 3" straight no mufflers or resonators. I think you would love it, I sure do.
With the turndown 😂
Is there any recommendation you have for 2018 Honda Civic Touring? My budget is under $500.
Can I get that loud exhaust sound without a tune?
Sounds really nice! Just funny on how people rev in neutral and then brake as if it will drop the rev faster lol
27won has the best sounding exhaust hands down. All check out there website for the latest mods. They also put out blogs to show upcoming products competing out. On those blogs they show the power gains each product gives you and various combinations.
I think Ark sounds more aggressive. AND you cant beat the price... $900 shipped since they were on sale...
I need help finding an exhaust for my 2020 Honda Civic sport sedan
Same
Let me know
Same
Same
From my research the best thing to do for our models right now is a muffler delete and resonator swap. I'm getting it done this week.
I do love the ark exhaust but does the borla sound better or just about the same?
Borla is even louder, more aggressive.
I'm from the Fast & Furious generation 😂. 41, and I've always been a Greddy fan, but I'm really liking Ark the more I research this exhaust. I'm thinking I'm going Ark now for sure. A few more upgrades first, though. Next is intercooler, but I'm making my way to the exhaust. BTW, catted downpipe and exhaust is probably the direction I'll be going.
It’s kinda hard to hear a difference in all these exhausts systems for 10 gen civic. They all sound too similar to me, just ones a bit louder then the others.
Would there be any benefit in putting this on a stock automatic? Also how much did this cost if you don’t mind me asking
I should’ve checked the description first, so I have the answer to the second question lol
What was the name of the exhaust you had on before the ark one?
Stupid question but will this pass smog for people in Cali?
You should change all the bushing too. It will dramatically give you a much solid ride!
Throughout 1:50... fix the run channel seal (common issue with these)...
I wonder if a free flow cat sounds diffferent? I understand the reason for going catless but I would I would be interested to keep my emissions in check regardless of power increase.
I discovered ARK products when i have my 2004 tiburon back in 2012, and boy let me tell you, they make some badass stuff. The system they make for the hyundai genesis looks like its made for a gtr its wild. But this makes me wanna go buy a honda right now lol
Thanks @PhongVLG ! I just purchased this for my hatch :D
Antsilog FK7 No Problem!
I know this is old and probably won’t get a response but what were they welding?
Is that d2 lowering springs? If so how do they ride
Love it! Might have to get one too after the intercooler!
Do you still run the catless or went for the sports catted?
I have a 2020 Honda Civic hatchback sport you think it will work? i want my sound good like you but i dont have a si i have honda civic hatchback sport
That thing roars🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
Great Job in this video bro👏👏👏
The ark performance one the one on the right sounded better. The one on the left was a little too raspy.
and does it make sense to buy a frontpipe at stock exhaust?
The tips on that exhaust are very similar to the magnaflow exhaust that i installed, with the sole difference being that the MF tips aren’t burnt. So for me trying install that awesome exhaust is pointless since in the end the car will almost look the same and the performance gains if any, will be minimal. Im looking at the invidia solution, titanium burnt tips to really make it stand out 🤷🏽♂️
How did you customize the display to show your name/icon and gauges? I have a 2020 Sport. Thanks
This will throw a CEL code with out having a tuner?
How do u change the cluster lights to red? Mines blue and white
Only si and sports come with red
Hey, how did you remove your cat without triggering the Oxygen Sensor attatched to it? I want to go straight piped with my own custom exhaust. The only thing stopping me is the sensor on my Cat.
You would need Hondata or Ktuner to disable the secondary O2 sensor
Cat less how to state inspection on it??????
Nicee clip bro! Whats that in your multimedia? (Clocks)
Will these work for 2019 honda Civic sport sedan
What is the point if having so many resonators? I’m just curious because I’ve never seen something like that before
is your car's setup california smog legal?
What is that bizarre canister thing for
Hey, on here speaks Rio de janeiro Brasil , Very Very Nice your car, I intend tô, make a normal model civc without being the type r .. these videos motivate a lot .. here in brazil it is very difficult to have .. but motivation helps a lot to have and make one like you did there so that they continue as successful..
sorry my english is not 100% kkk
Can we get a tutorial on the Custom Screen on the center console, its awesome and i really want to do the same to my car :)
Already a step ahead 😉 Enjoy: th-cam.com/video/f1uuJ0EiydU/w-d-xo.html
If you’re talking about the gauges that is paired with hondata and Honda hacking your infotainment screen with the Honda app. That process is a bit more complicated to explain, but a TH-cam video for that will be worked on.
Well done on this video bro
Keep the great work up💯💯👍👍👍
The first car sounds purrrrrrrrfect.
I have a 10th gen lx is there a way to get it to fit on mine or what?
What’s the set up on your rims, Size and offset?
TacticalTacoGuy562 19x8.5 +35 offset
PhongVLG thanks for the info, nice set up👌🏽
What's that gauge reading 74-75? That seems like a pretty insane number for boost or fuel mixture
That’s ethanol content, so it’s running 74-75% ethanol.
@@PhongVLG Ah I see
I wanna hear the exhaust from the red stinger in the background
johnni411 I believe Ark Performance has a sound clip of it on their TH-cam page, you can find the link to their page in my video description.
Sounds good I need this!!
Nice car but. If u r cat less , how do you do to pass smog check??? Just wandering
New cars don’t need smog for 5 years or so. And to pass smog you either go back stock or find someone to “help you” pass
What the whole exhaust set up your buddy gots ?
I can't get over the rev hang... both sound good though
So I have a question about the interior sound with the exhaust you installed. It's not too loud is it?
No, not if you have the catalytic converters on
yea bro... we definitely need to revamp the rear diffuser now... ASAP! 😂
Did you get ur turbo to flutter with a tune?
No, that was due to an upgraded turbo.
@@PhongVLG ahhh dang I figured so
Where are y’all located
Would it work on the honda civic sport tourning cvt verison?
I got a 2019 honda civic sports still works the exhaust
Which one did you get?
How much it cost?
Another great video 👌
Any recommendations for a 2017 Honda Civic LX? I still have the car stock but I wanna mod it
Will this fit civic sedan sport
You think you can fit that arks on a civic hatchback non sport?
I’m sure you can, but I’m sure you’ll have to retrofit it due to the exhausts position.
Man is there any way i can get it if i live in Australia
Videos never do exhaust true justice
Can the new Honda Civics shoot flames?
Lmao
biosenic Any car can shoot flames. But yes these new civics can shoot flames, check out @L15B7ALLTURBO Instagram for his flame clip.
Sounds good I've got a Type R not sure if I should do a muffler delete or full exhaust I'm leaning more towards a new exhaust and keep my stock exhaust in case I ever want to go back I'm not looking for the loudest exhaust just something with a little more deeper tone anyone have any suggestions for the Type R?
Don't cheap out. It's a Type R.
Get yourself a magnaflow exhaust, best exhaust for a 10th gen
I got the ARK on my Type R. It’s worth the 💴 dude!! Sounds so nice!! Especially @ 3500-4000 rpm. When your cruising its not annoying.
What is the spoiler on the black civic
I have a 2019 Sedan and am very tempted to muffler delete. Would deleting mufflers only cause the engine to lose its back end pressure?
get it it’s worth it
CrytiicaL Turbo creates enough back pressure so no you won’t lose any back end pressure, in all honesty when I did my muffler delete I felt as if the car performed better with more flow. Less restriction.
PhongVLG thanks for the reply. Have been heavily contemplating but wanted to confirm i wouldnt cause problems! Love the channel im a fairly new subscriber! Cant wait to see whats to come on the build!
Does TypeR 2020 version has same loud sound from Ark? I was also thinking to add Afe downpipe (race / no cat) and Afe frontpipe, what do you think?
will it fit for sedan sport? not si?
Just ordered mine in my 2020 civic si!
QQ: since you have a 2020 I’m sure you still have warranty until 35k, But if you put a new exhaust I’m pretty sure you will kill the warranty, are u aware of that?
@@Acxel84 I've actually been trying to get in contact with a Honda rep to ask about this. A few of my buddies have been service writers for other manufacturers and they say most warranties allow for axle back exhaust and a cold air intake but that's about it.
I have a 17’ civic ex-l do u think this would be a nice fit for my car?
Yes
Have you changed the bov?
Thought you were going to keep the custom exhaust
How much does it cost you bro?
Is this exhaust similar to the sound of the full race exhaust on the 9th gen?? Looking for an exhaust with that sound, thanks!
Looks like I’m getting this for my hatchback sport 2021
Now i have a 2019 civic 2.0 sport n wanna change the exhaust any suggestions??? Cant find one's that work for mine
ARK seems to have one but it’s $1,600
Do they sell just the catback part? I have a sport sedan and thinking about doing a muffler delete and would get this! I have rv6 catless and stock resonator.
They sell the exhaust for the hatch as well, I have provided a link in the video description!
What's the COST, for each?????
Isn’t catless illegal?
Amazing... Dream car :') Big up from Portugal
where is the other si front splitter from?
What’s under the hood of the middle one/Grey one
If you’re taking about my Silver Civic Si, as of today it is a fully built block, built transmission, FBO, on a Garrett 2860R Turbo.
AYYYY LETS GET IT!!!!
Siiiiiiiick!! So what do u do when u gotta get smogged??
Would this make my 10th gen LX sound good
Nice. Thing stopping me from doing that to mine is that I will void the warranty.
malakius if you just get a cat back it wont void. Only beyond the cat will you void
What warranty would you lose? Engine warranty?
Fuck it go for it
Next time don’t finance your cars
Josiah Mamea Josiah Mamea if I got the AKS performance dt-s just from a stock type R, would that void my warranty? Please explain
I wondering if I could install the same type of exhaust to my Honda Civic Sport(Not SI) i don’t know if it is the same thing as the SI... let me know thanks, that sounds pretty sick
I have the same question but nobody responded to you so I’m still confused
would anyone recommend resonator deletes for a sedan honda not si or type r?
I'll take the old custom exhaust setup. hmu and lmk the price.
