Invidia exhaust owners

One of the vendors is having what seems to be a good deal on their exhausts, $799 shipped...for those of you that have the Invidia what are your thoughts on it? Good system? Any drone?

Would you get it again or recommend it?

Thanks!

I have the g200 true dual, with about 20000 miles on it. The quality and fitment was awesome, The customer service/support from invidia not so much. The sound was near stock level at idle but opened up on WOT. With a set of TP's they did produce some rasp which has almost completely disappeared once I put on the crawford HFC's. I did cut and wield in an X pipe just before the larger resonators into them about 2000 miles ago and the sound improved in my opinion. As long as you never have to try and get in contact with the company who makes the invidia product line then you should be very happy.

You had no problems with fitment?
I had mine installed yesterday and fitment is absolutly terrible...
Mine has metal to metal contact with the frame in 2 places,and is resting on the sway bar..
I just sent an email/w pictures to the vendor ....we will see what kinda of response I get.

Has anybody else had fitment issues with this system??

my friend has TP's and invidia g200 on his 05 5at G and he HATES it.. there was a huge loss in torque and his car really has no pick up...

We raced at the track and my stock 5 at G 2003 beat his 05 5at G with that exhaust, test pipes, and intake... We raced several times and my car always won, we even switched drivers and he beat me with my own car.

get the fast intentions intimidater exhaust, you won't regret it, sound is amazing, it takes about 3 weeks to make it then they ship out, they make it once you order it, its never massed produced like most exhaust, therefor the is no issue with quality nor fitment, its welding is excellent, they even sand down the inside of the welds so there is constant free flowing. that is of course if your looking for something close to stock, someone said on this forum and it sounds like the VQ on steroids, and i must say, i totally have to agree with him
