It is loud!

I find mine worse with the roof up, as it seems to hold the noise inside the cabin.

It has lost nearly all of the drone since adding a test pipe

I bought mine through a group buy for $640.00. I was glad to get $300.00 for it after using it for only 200 miles. The droning with the silencers in was ridiculous.

ok... i think everyone has helped me decide.. this sounds too lound even if it is at a pretty good price. any suggestions on any other setup that won't break my bank or my ears.. As most set ups don't offer that much in performance anyhow, i was looking more for a nice sound and the sporty looks of an aftermarket...

The Invidia is not only loud, but it is junk. The rivets in the tips on my Invidia came out on two different systems that I had. Also, the resonator broke. I would suggest saving up for the t1r "Sparrow".

My HKS Hi Power is much the same... The drone can get a bit weary sometimes, but it more than makes up for it when you

Well, I guess that does it for the Invidia. I'd rather spend more money to get something else. What I want is something that growls when you wind it up, without too much drone at cruising speed.

Impossible?

I agree. I had the weld behind the Invidia badge (Y-piping) break.
