they don't sound anywhere near the same, the pitch and tone are completely different, but then again I am running at test pipe so I dunno

 

I had the invidia v2 on my car for the past two months. I have nothing bad to say about, I loved the sound and for the price you cant beat it. My only gripe was the rattling tips, quite annoying at times. I however opted to remove the exhaust and went with a single mainly for power purposes. I now have the spugen ti coupled with an invidia test pipe and this setup makes the invidia sound quiet but I noticed a def increase in power and I now stay beside my buddys s2k that used to put 2+ cars on me from a fun lil roll race. Cant go wrong with the invidia, sounds great

 

how much more power can you see with a single and not dual exhaust?

 

it all depends really. I myself noticed an immediate increase in hp from 5k to redline with the single and testpipe, I plan to hit the dyno soon. I dynod 195whp with the invidia exhaust, everything else stock. I would venture to say Ive picked up 12whp or more from the outcome of the race I had with my buddys s2k. I let him drive it and another fellow s2k owner and they both said "wow, feels alot stronger than mine". They both have the invidia's on there cars. Its been said numerous times though, singles make more power over duals but the invidia is one of the better sounding/power making duals out there. Im very happy I made the transistion to a single setup, as im amazed at how great the car feels now compared to the invidia. The sound however is just plain rediculous. I mean it sounds damn sexy, but overwhelming (loud) to say the least, almost like a crotch rocket on steroids lol.

 

I have an AP2. I think the single look like crap and the ap2. They can look nice on AP1

 

what about just getting a single exhaust...then going to a muffler shop and having them fab up a fake dual...power of the single but looks of a dual. only way people will know is when its cold out and they see smoke coming from the pass side tip

 

Adding weight FTW!

 

I thought about that...does a single really make that much more hp... as in 10+ over dual???

 

jesus. right when i thought i wasent gonna buy an exhaust anymore. . . . lol

 

Just reread some of the posts in here and noticed this. Newsflash: AP1 bumper is rice!!!
