invidia g200 opinions?

What are your guys thoughts on this exhaust? Sound, fitment quality, performance, and looks? I noticed some of you actually have the exhaust if there is some way I can take a look at your car next meet that would be awesome. I am considering this exhast, simply do to the price... hopefully getting the best bang for the buck. So just looking around and researching. Thanks in advance for the tips.

I got mine off of Puria and he bought it from some other member. It came with a x-pipe. It sounds pretty good, very exotic/european-ish. Definitely loose that G tone and get a higher pitch european tone. I like it merely for the blue tip since it matches my CB very well. For the price, you can consider the Injen's new titanium tip exhaust but I heard Injen is loud. Only possible problem with the G200 because it's a true dual is that you might want to do an H or X-pipe to help balance the flow. I do get a slight rasp at high end on mine if you listen carefully, not that big of a rasp. Let me know when you're trying to come out and I will try to be there. I'm thinking the next time i show up would be the Active Tuning Nissan meet. Not sure where you're located, but if close by, I can come show u.

thats what I wanted to hear, I have owned several exhaust on various cars and IMO an exhaust can make or break a car. I hate sh!tty sounding exhaust. Also did any of you guys notice a throttle response diffrence. I.e. does it feel like a performance exhaust when you installed it?

Depending on your definition of "sound" . If by sound, you mean noise level and decibel, the g200 is almost as quiet as stock but is louder at WOT, it's no HKS or injen, but it is louder. If by sound you mean tone, the g200 sound nothing like stock. You completely loose the oem tone and pick up a euro tone that's higher pitch. So to me there is a noticable "sound" difference.

"you sound like an m3 with an exhaust" not the raspy m3 though.. i dont know.. for sure it's not the same sounding as stock or the hks or fuji.. but it's deeper and louder. i like it.. it's different

haha Khoa... i wasn't tryin to bash on the exhaust ... I just remember driving P.diddy's car after he put his exhaust on ..to see if there was a BIG difference .. and i didnt think there was.... although it was a tad bit louder .. i thought it sounded close to stock .. but u've had it on ur car longer and u would probably know more about it.

Well thanks for all the adive. It's what I wanted to hear. And as far as sound went, I was particuaraly talking about decibels. IMO the best sounding car is one that just has an intake, because I hate raspy exhaust... sorry to hate on all you straight pipe people! Just my own opinion. I wil probably come over to the thursday night hang out at fairfax corner if you all are going to be there again. So maybe I will see the exhaust first hand.

haha, hey man, I had to pay extra money to fix the ghetto bent the x-pipe caused. But you did the right thing by allowing the exhaust to go on a 6MT . I think it's much tamer on an 5AT, so that might have to be taken into consideration. I know my stock was louder(more pronounced) than my buddy's 5AT. Not sure if I can make it out to HH, cuz i do volleyball now, but i'm sure Vic can come out. If you're in MD, let me know.

Arjun- I know you weren't ******* it, but just thought your statement may have been misleading to teamsprock.
