would the invidia be sufficient in handling a twin or single turbo?

i currently have the fuji setup going but an still trying to decide what i want to do later on (which type of fi to go with). i really like the way the fuji sounds but i dont think i can run fi safely with it.. so i was thinking about the invidia... but ive only heard two sound clips.. the first one the invidia was really raspy and the second one it sounded pretty close to the fuji.. anyone have the invidia wanna let me hear it in person? or maybe just tell me how it sounds relative to stock/fuji?

i myself have the Fujitsubo Legalis-R and the Fujitsubo Y-pipe, as well as TopSpeed headers and Crawford cats. i personally love the exhaust. it's not the loudest or most different looking. to the untrained eye it might as well be the stock one, and if you go easy on the pedal it may even sound stock. but i wouldn't trade it for any of the others. there are audio clips of my exhaust setup found here at idle, cruise, WOT, and free revving
Is there a significant benefit in running a Y-pipe with the Fuji-legalis, or any other cat back for that matter?? and are there any fitment issues in running a Y-pipe.
Oh and one other question, is the length of the Fuji same as stock, any chance of damage to the bumper from exhaust heat?

thanks

Yes it's true dual. I've seen dynos of 12 hp for this exhaust so it can't be too bad

ask TINMAN, he's been running his Fuji exhaust with his monster custom Speed Force Racing twin turbo system with no problems... the fujitsubo has some of the biggest piping made for the 350z/G35 in a single exhaust at 76mm (3").

the Fuji Legalis-R is a "ypipe back" exhaust, meaning it only includes a midpipe and muffler as shown in the pic below. it requires some form of Y-pipe to make it a "cat back". Fuji system fits just like stock... the only thing different from the stock look is the 4" single walled exhaust tips.


y-pipe (top) + midpipe (middle) + muffler (bottom)

Thank you for the info, w/o trying to sound like an idiot, what is the stock exhaust tip length and diameter? Quick search didn't reveal. I want something that will be as close to stock in terms of fitment...just looking for more noise and a little increase in HP.

THanks again.
