The Invidia is a great exhaust system, but if you're hoping for a LOUD note at idle, then go with the HKS or Tanabe. The Invidia has a nice deep tone and gets fairly loud at WOT. I had to install the hi-flow cats to get the depth I was looking for.

I will say that the Invidia tips are sweet, with a faux rainbow, flamed effect that is visually nice to see. I get LOTS of comments from people about the 'pipes' from the appearance of those tips.

I also noted a substantial kick in HP to the RW's as soon as the pipes were installed. Overall I really like them. Fit and finish were excellent. Installers remarked how "perfectly" they went in.

From what I know about the invidia now. I would spend 2 k on that system.
It gives me everything I wanted and much more. Nice setup and IM very pleased with its sound.

isnt HKS supposed to be much quieter? i heard that extra little can(?) next to the muffler is supposed to cancel out the drone? ive never seen anyone who complained about the HKS being loud at idle.

I've heard that that Apexi and the Fuji exhaust with the Type R y pipe are the quietest exhuasts out there. Is that true? Is the HKS much or a little louder than both? The HKS does provide more power than Nismo and Fuji with the y pipe correct?
