hopefully those with an Invidia on the parade lap won't break any new noise policies!

Sounds good on the PC anyway...can't wait to be trackside!!!!

Wish they made an exhaust that could be ball tickling when you wanted and subtle, almost OEM when you wanted. Invidia was waaaayyy too loud for my tastes even with the silencers (silent my A$$). That setup probably stayed on the car less than 12 months if that.

Fujitsobo these days or "the F-ing exhaust" as I often say. Very subtle but a bit deeper and more aggressive than OEM.

Oh...and now let the "ball tickling" reference create a few more posts...go ahead Scott, I know you're out there.

Shay,

The Invidia Q300 (V4) is as you describe, much ,lower bass tone at idle and screams in V-Tec with no drone, I just put it on mine and I am still getting it broken in but so far so good. Not ricey or like you typical "fart Can" exhaust tone.

For the S.....HKS hipower with the rear resonator removed was the best of both worlds IMHO...it produced a loss of power though due to reduced backpressure with the rear resonator missing.

These cars in the video are still going to be heartstoppingly loud, the note is just subdued a little and maybe a few DB quieter

i never had much of a chance to hear the Invidia exhaust until following behind chip at the group drive and i liked the "Indy" type of sound that it puts off. it's just a lot louder than the Tanabe Medalion Concept G exhaust that i have. i love mine, quiet while cruising and at idle but it puts off a very nice, deeper tone when you're doing some WOT driving. not ricey at all and very smooth throughout the RPM range
