Might get Invidia cat-back, need some advice...
Hey guys, hope all is going well. So after waiting for what seems to be forever for the ARK exhaust, I have finally given up lol. It seems that the only other cat-backs available for the vert is either Stillen or Invidia, and after comparing the two I have decided on maybe getting the Invidia. Currently I have the IPL muffler (was able to make dealer throw that into the deal at purchase) so my question is will the Invidia be an improvement over over the IPL? The reason I'm asking is because I've heard that Invidia sounds somewhat close to stock so I'm worried that it will sound the same as IPL. Let me know what you guys think, and if anyone who has the Invidia can chime in, that would be great. Thanks.

I have the sport exhaust too and it sounds OK but once you install a CAI it is a whole new story. I have the R2C set up and when you press the fun pedal the exhaust takes on a whole new level of sound!
Before you go and invest in a new set up , I suggest that you tweak what you have because there is some room for improvement.
Good luck man!

I have invidia and i love it, is loud enough when you want to be. Zero rasp... As others said here its deeper and louder than stock....i also have r2c and both of them toguether sound great... Inside the cabin you can hear the difference but is not annoying at all... As per the ipl Muffler I really never heard it so can't compare.

Thanks guys for all the replies--really appreciate it! So it seems that there is a lot of positive feedbacks on the Gemini exhaust, which was what I was hoping for lol. This certainly helps a lot and I think I might PM a few vendors here to get some prices and if all goes well, I may get myself an early birthday present haha.
bschurr--I currently have the R2C intake too but I didn't notice any difference in sound from the exhaust (maybe I play my music too loud? lol). Other than the intake, is there other tweaks/additions you've made to make you car sound louder/different?

Also thanks to those who suggested some of the vendors here, I have contacted a few of them and got prices. They all gave me pretty decent prices so it's tempting to get it haha.

Invidia
I haven't heard the IPL, but I have the Invidia Gemini, and it's awesome. Paired with an Injen Short-ram, it really opens up the sound at about 3K RPM. Very deep, and I wouldn't call it 'like stock.'. Zero rasp. It does drone a bit at about 2500 RPM if you going uphill in OD. Nothing a downshift won't cure.
I highly recommend it.
