Anyone have pics of the dual ovals with the round tips on an 04+ car?? I think the spugen looks great on the AP1 cars but dont know if the tips are too small for the new bumpers.

Is there any drone with that exhaust? I rode in a car with the Invidia and that def not for a daily driver. How is the dual with TI tips sound compared with the invidia?

You can kill the drone on either the Spugen or Invidia by using the stock mid section. Cost me $30 to have my Invidia modified. Completely killed the drone and kept the growl. Still loud at WOT, but you can pretty much completely tame it now with the silencers.

One thing I'd say is it looks like the Spugen may "fit" the S better that the Invidia. Hard to say for sure until I see one in person. What's the Spugen made of, and how much weight savings? (Invidia is stainless and saves ~30lbs)

There is definitely drone with this exhaust. However, I really love the sound. IMO They are very similar, however I think it sounds better than the invidia.

I put a T1r test pipe on as well and that helped get rid of the drone. It did however make it quite a bit louder.

Also, before buying either make sure you listen to both of them. The videos on the spugen site do the exhaust system no justice.

I've had two Invidias(one original and now the one for the '04 bumper) for about 45k miles. No silencers and my wife loves it. I'm not kidding. It's personal preference.

I believe the original Spugens rusted pretty badly, but that was taken care of. The Invidia needs a little finessing to get it symetrical. Both seem to be good values. I can only vouch for the one.

holy crap that's an awesome spugen exhaust!!!!!!

But I have the Spugen S.S. Dual Titanium tips, it drones pretty bad at some points in the RPM range, but I have been thinking of doing that Sound proofing mod that some people are doing on the board. I love the sound though.
