I just ordered an Arqray exhaust system from WSTO, it will take them couple months it ship out from Japan. I'm sooooo excited!
Always been a fan for high end Japan import exhaust, used Greddy, 5 zigen in the past for my rice rockets
Anyone currently using Arqray, or have any test on them? Much appreciated!
Next mod will be GruppeM Ram air and Dinan throttle. What do you guys think?

I think it would be useful for you to ID your ride,

I would like to hear more about the GruppeM Ram air when you get it. Looks interesting but seems like a lot of money with no dyno or other info to back it up.

The sounds is excellent but dont expect alot of gains in power.
I was talking to a E60 member the other day, why gruppeM charge people so much and rarely do the dyno??! :thumbsdown:

Because it is cool looking and made out of carbon fiber. I'm joking but I am still interested in finding an effective cold air intake for the E60 if such a thing exists.

I really like the design of the GruppeM, one piece carbon fiber intake goes from the engine all the way to the front for better air flow. It's simple, functional and can increase HP, that just make sense to me, even without the dyno
