mandrel-bent

i'm really going to shoot myself in the foot here. i've gone back and forth between exhaust systems almost 6 times now.

anyways, does anyone have any sort of idea if the invidias for our sedans are mandrel bent? i'm not sure what to look for in a "good exhaust system." just some random searching threw these terms out. i know that invidia's q300 system (or is it gemini? do the sedans even have the gemini out?) has flex points, while the stillen does not. the general consensus seems to favor invidia over stillen. i think i'm set on the invidias now, for sure. hopefully anyways...

anyone think otherwise?! bah!

thank you!!!

Stillen exhaust hooked up to those Stillen headers would be awesome! Add a Stillen CAI and you've got a fully integrated, fully designed flow thru system. At least that's what you would assume, but I'm not sure if the folks at Stillen actually work that way.

thanks ipity! i think i'm set on going with the invidias. but tell me something...are the Q300's with the updated X-Pipes, the same thing as the Gemini? I've read that the Gemini are newer, but in terms of the sedan, they don't seem to be available?

They are available. I think the difference between the two is that the Gemini has two huge 18 inch resonators, while the q300 is not resonated. I am very sure that there is a sedan gemini.

double checked with invidia. the gemini system isn't available for the sedan they're essentially the same though, said whoever the rep was i spoke with. it's mainly how the mufflers sit, that give the gemini a bit more kick. supposedly...
