NFRS2kSi,
Care to elaborate on your comment? What you've just said provides no value to readers since you've not made any claims as to what makes either exhaust "crap".

Making honest comments whether good or bad is encouraged, but understand that they have no relevance or value if not backed up with detailed reasoning for the comments.

gezzz... i was just staying it has same piping.... i'm sure he heard of invidia...

okie... just a FYI, i'll try to do comparison

sparrow:
full stainless i think it's 60mm piping sounds deep. 3 piece for easy install & loud drone

invidia:
full stainless 60mm.. forgot if it was 2 piece or 3 piece.... it's been while i looked under the car... it's a little louder than sparrow. i think it's cuz of the muffler & tip...

so... i was saying.. if u like the look of sparrow tip go spend extra $$$ if not... . i personally recommend getting invidia... bang for the bux.

T1R Sparrow vs. Invidia, not comparison

T1R uses higher quality mufflers with a deeper sound. I hear it does not drone. Dyno proven by AJ Racing to make 5-10whp

Invidia screams, even louder than some singles. Raspy, and it drones. Haven't seen any dynoed gains from the exhaust.

i have the Sparrow with test pipe on my 05.

at idle, it's very quiet
<5k rpm, the sound is deep and unique.
>5k rpm, it starts booming.

i love the sound on the road. when the motor's under load, the sound is smooth and broad. i catch alot of peeps looking around to find out where all that sound is coming from!

drone is there but minimal/acceptable. my spugen dual ovals droned more than this set. my blitz realize tt was definitely quieter.

there are gains in power. especially right off idle and in the midrange right before VTEC engagement. the motor seems to rev a bit quicker. other owners who have driven my s have all agreed the the power and sound are top notch.

AJ Racing, and we are trying to spark some interest from them to see if they'll make a 70mm dual in a limited one time run. If you don't go with a T1R then in my opinion your choice would either be something from J's or Amuse.
