Ark design catback exhaust

I've been researching exhausts. I'm considering the NM engineering catback, but I just stumbled upon the catback exhaust from ark design. I can't find any info or reviews, which doesn't feel great. Anyone using this system? Opinions? Thanks

No hope of power gains with a cat-back. Why bother?
