I had mine for a month and sold it because of dronning. Upon initial install I didn't use the silencers and drove the car one block and had to turn around and put them in. Being in my mid 40's and already having significant hearing loss I can't imagine running this system without the silencers.

Had mine since the initail offering and I love it.

I don't use the car as a daily driver so the loudness does not bother me.

I have one of the 2 things that bugged me fixed....

1 - If you track or autox, this exhaust sways too much. It only has 3 hangers, I had another pair added. Now it's as stable as the stock exhause

2 - Droning - going to fix that over the winter

Oh as as for the sound...like everyone says, get it over 5k and it is awesome . At a driving school last year, when I drove by, the instructor stopped teaching to see which car was making that sound...it was me . Oh and the Instructor was the Chief driving instructor for Ferrari ...

Stock weighs about 55 lbs.

Invidia is about 27 lbs.

I think mine has quieted down a bit since it was brand new. Sounds mellower now - still loud, but more bearable. Has anyone else experianced this?

Also - Do not put the silencers in. It sounds almost quiter than stock, and it def. feels like it robs a few ponies. It was also a B*TCH to get them out. (Think vise grips, a cable and my other car pulling...)
