Review: Artigianato Strada Exhaust System

After the South Florida Charity Rally and the photoshoot last night I've been getting some questions about my exhaust system. This system is made by a company called Artigianato Italy. This is their sports version called "Strada". I only got the axle-back and im still on stock midpipes and downpipes. It has a very subtle and sporty but very deep sound. The system came in a fully brushed finish with polished adjustable tips and looks excellent in person. The welds are done by what appears to be robotic welding although I haven't asked. I have personally never seen a higher quality exhaust system. Extreme attention to details.

I installed this in conjunction with the HP Autowerks foam filter (will post review later) and after about 200 miles you could really feel a very noticeable difference in the way the vehicle felt. Much more free than before.

They are currently working on 335 midpipes and I`ll be getting a set of their catless version in a few weeks. I can't wait for the midpipes since the stock ones are very restrictive and I`m sure it`ll improve the sound even more. They are also developing a race exhaust system. It is a race/competition system with individual race mufflers with remote controlled electric valves on each side . I might be installing this system with their catless midpipes as well. This is the only aftermarket system for the 335 with dual electronic valves.

They also have an N55 down pipe in the works that will be released soon and I`ll be installing them to complement the race system once they are released.

Here is a quick pic:

But they still have crunched places and the overall diameter is not uniform throughout while being smaller than 2.5".
