Hey guys,

Took a quick videoclip of the Invidia today...

here's my exhaust setup:
-XXTuning header & uppipe
-TurboXS downpipe
-TurboXS cat back adapter(basically a shorty racepipe)
-Invidia Racing N1 catback

I was previously running the 3" TXS RFL-Ti muffler catless, and this is STILL louder than that setup. :eek:

(click on the thumbnail to view videoclip)



enjoy!

I did put the silencer on for a few hours a couple weeks ago. WOW, big difference. It went from snarling and popping to quiet as stock. It sounded wimpy so I took it off soon after, LOL. I LOVE how loud and rumbly this one is.

Bah,

The TXS catback adapter is RARELY purchased piece, but it IS manufactured by TurboXS. I doubt any TurboXS dealer carries it in stock as they probably have TurboXS drop ship it for them.

Basically what the catback adapter pipe does is extended the TurboXS downpipe so that it is the same length as the other aftermarket USDM downpipes like Helix, PDE, Invidia, etc... It basically lets people who already have the TurboXS downpipe purchase any aftermarket catback they want and bolt it up with no problems. THIS IS NOT THE SAME LENGTH AS THE TURBOXS CATPIPE/RACEPIPE, IT IS MUCH SHORTER. It only comes in catless form from TurboXS. :wink:

Here are some pics of my TurboXS downpipe, TurboXS catback adapter pipe, then the Invidia catback:

Almost 10,000 miles with it and the P0420 cat inefficiency code has not returned at all.

Brett, that would be the $5.00 homemade mechanical CEL fix. No joke...

go to Kragen, AutoZone, any local autoparts store and buy this:



OR you can use this one as well


then bore out ONE of the anti foulers with a 1/2" drill bit(to make space for the head of the o2 sensor) and leave the other alone. Screw in the anti fouler that you left alone into the downpipe first, then take the anti fouler you bored out to 1/2" and stack that on top.



100% reversible and no cutting wires. I've used it on my STi for almost 10,000 miles now with no P0420(cat inefficiency code).

StilWill that exhaust sounds great! Love the white STi too. My Perrin exhaust is deafening, but I like it, so I definately like that Invidia.
