70mm TP + GReddy TiC Turbo
When i was searching for opinions on the GReddy TiC turbo and test pipes i felt very un-affirmed. I scanned through thread after thread reading thumbs up and thumbs down. Well i'm here to tell potential buyers that 1) yes the GReddy on a stock cat can be a bit droney (not a deal breaker as most 70mm are droney) but a little but none-the-less. 2) After the installation of my Invidia 70mm catless test-pipe THE DRONE IS GONE. It sounds amazing, very good tone, almost sounds like an F1. I also wanted to compliment Invidia on the peice itself which i ordered off of eBay for $90.00 shipped. This included their "CEL fix." I assumed they would just send a little anti-fouler for the o2 sensor like i've had on other cat delete mods, i was surprised however to find that they use a much trickier process! There is what looks like a mini cat that is welded into the top of the pipe and incases the o2 sensor. So instead of hiding the o2 sensor in the bung piping, it is actualy sniffing clean air. Very nice, clean design and i give everything two thumbs up. Highly reccomend the GReddy TiC Turbo + Invidia TP. For a grand total of $740.00 i am impressed.

Pretty much the exact setup that I am going to go with, but I am going to get the Berk TP. You are only able to chirp 2nd now? I chirp going into 3rd and I am stock. But then again I am running quite a bit of camber in the rear (from being so low), so I probably dont have as big a contact patch as you do.

Ya im on 225 (i believe) fairly new toyo proxes... And honestly i dont bang Vtec to often or bounce it off of 9k a lot. Anyway, my check engine light just came on. I knew that CEL fex in the invidia was too good to be true. sigh, what to do now?

Tires are a better reflection of what gears you can "chirp" than horsepower when you are only around 200 at the wheels. Good review and I know a lot of people will appreciate your thread when they read it.
You also got a great bit of weight savings, which is nice. My invidia TP helped calm the drone on my dual N1 setup, but its still bad. Hence why I am replacing it with the HKS, which is a bit cheaper than the Greddy.

Are you running with or without the silencer in the exhaust?
I have the same setup you do (plus the AEM v2) and it sounds great with the silencer installed. Loud when you tip into the pedal, and bearable when cruising around.
I don't hear a high pitch F1 scream, more of a bassy rumble from my little 4 banger!
