raw Invidia catback weighed in at 29 lbs.

Multiwrapped Invidia catback weighed 39 lbs. (Added about 1 lb per foot of pipe)

retired Multiwrapped magnaflow catback without resonator weighed 40 lbs.

Stock mufflers (20 lbs each) and stock resonator (15 lbs) weighed another 40 lbs additional to the catback pre magnaflow (8lb each).

Just got back from Monterey's Concourso Italiano/Pebble beach and the Invidia is a tad louder than my old magnaflows in the cabin but is INCREDIABLE SOUNDING overall. Spent about 15 hours in the car and very livable sound levels (unless you are in the car behind me )

Took it through some tunnels and it is HEARTSTOPPING

I would like to see a pic from behind with it mounted.

The Blue tips stick out about an inch and half past the valance and they look like they mean business. The invidia are slightly angled outward unlike some of the other exhausts that jut straight back.

I jethot coated the inside of the tips to keep the valance from melting. The tips get extremely hot still.

one thing for sure, if you are using header wraps for the exhaust/header,etc make double sure you coat the inside with rust proof material first(unless you have a titanium or SS oem exhaust), because it will develop rust(mostly on the arear under the SS cramps/tie down)

after 3 years or so my old header(ceramic btw) started to rust, which is unheard of in socal(rained like 10x a year and i have a beater so the car was not driven in the rain if i see a rain coming).

however, the header wrap is great for turbo manifold, it keep alot of heat from building up under the hood

Unless you scratch your jethot coating, there is no metal areas on the pipe that will rust. The clamps might rust tho so give them a regular shot of boeshield and you are good to go.

To update this thread, I ended up putting another layer of heatwrap on because the damplifier pro material softened up under vtec and the heatwrap would soak/seal and pretty up the finished pipe.
