ARQRAY EXHAUST (catback stainless steel) for 325i/330i

Looks like Arqray has finished developing their exhaust for the 325i and 330i. Not sure what the performance gains are (if any), but if anyone can read Japanese, feel free to translate for us:

Looks really clean, but somehow, I like the rolled tips look. Just think it's classier in keeping with the car.

I'm not seeing much of a difference in looks. But does it make a different sound or has different performance?

I like it because it looks almost stock!! Now, how does it soound? I would consider buying it if it was quite like stock during normal driving, but a little louder under WOT, kinda like my RS*R exhuast was...

699yen is just over 6 dollars u.s.... Something doesn't seem right there.

699.00 Japan Yen = 6.28122 United States Dollars

1 JPY = 0.00898601 USD 1 USD = 111.284 JPY

I've heard ARQRay on an e46.. and it sounds horrible.... it has the swarm of bees sound that alot of modded civics have... Its really very very similar to that sound and its a shame to take a smooth inline-6 and give it a buzzy whinny sound. I'd assume the e90 exhaust would have a similar effect.
