a friend who runs out at Gingerman in an AP2 has one. It sounds very agressive, sound like a full all out race car on the track, but is LOUD LOUD LOUD for driving around town.
He took me for a quick ride and what I noticed is street driving, not only is it loud, it's an unpleasant sound inside the cabin (definitly sounds better outside).
I could not imagine having to deal with it on a daily basis.
also, he is also sick of the sound and stated he was looking to get rid of it and go with a setup you could tolerate more on a daily basis.
but yes, it did scream at the track.

I have the invidia dual 70mm catback (V3 if I remember correctly). It is pretty loud but not rediculous with the silencers installed. I am in the NW corner of Columbus... shoot me a note and I can take you for a ride if you are in the area.

(bringing this back from the dead I know)
I just bought the one that was on sale on Craigslist for $150 yesterday. Seems like a well put together exhaust, I'm actually in the process of polishing it now. I figured for $150 I could easily make my money back if I don't like it. I bet it's a little too loud for me but I think it'll be fun for the rest of the season.
If anyone will want to hear it in person I'll have it one hopefully this weekend.

Just as everyone has said, it's loud as hell. In my opinion it sounds good, and everyone I talk to likes it, but it's way to loud for a car I take on just meaningless drives on the weekends. SO LOUD. It attracts way too much attention and just isn't what I want. I will say though it is a hell of a lot lighter then the stock one and a HELL of a lot easier to install.

I have the Invidia Q300 dual on mine, though it is supposed to be the quietest Invidia by far. I was looking for one that would be a bit louder/lower frequency while idling. I really liked the idea of the t1r sparrow exhaust, but didnt wanna spend like $1500. The invidia i got off the forum for like $500.
I like it cause there isnt a drone while cruising, it does sound nice while just idling, and I think it sounds similar to stock but louder at VTEC (when driving past buildings or objects in the country, you can hear the sound reflecting off of the objects). I have read some people describe this exhaust as being 'quiet when you want, but also loud when you want'
The only thing I dont like is when i am just gently accelerating, cause that is when it does get a bit 'farty' and is a bit louder than i would like. I just feel silly when i am accelerating at the same pace as all the other cars around me, but i am a lot louder and a bit 'farty'. One buddy sat in my car and at first didnt like the exhaust because of that, but as soon as i actually punched it and went into the VTEC range and he heard how quiet it was just cruising he changed his mind.
