I have two words for this exhaust...

GROUP BUY!
Are all you guys allready exhausted, or are you up for a group buy for this one. I'd be willing to set it up if there's enough interested parties. My guess is the minimum would be 10-15. Let's try to get it together by the holidays.
Thanks,

Tempting, but I'm still enjoying my Scorpion. If I hadn't purchased it just a few months ago, I'd get on the group buy bandwagon for sure.

Group Buy

I have a contact with a distributor for invidia exhaust and possibly willing to do 599.00 (+discounted shipping) but must have at least 7 buyers. Let me know if you guys are interested. More buyers will reduce shipping costs.

so why would $599 for Group Buy be of any benefit?

Ryephile,

What is the target price for a group purchase...I can ask my contact. If you can get it cheaper...I'll buy it from you. Just trying to get the best pricing.

MyPocketRocket got one (1) at that price. My understanding of a group buy was that VOLUME=DISCOUNT. But let's not be disuaded by spidey's hasty offer. The holidaze are afoot, and with them come good tidings.
Let's start a list of those interested at $550 plus actual shipping costs to their respective zips.

Even with old hangers you could take the car to muffler shop and fix them in 30 minutes, but you need to add $20-$30 on top of the total.

MyPocketRocket, was there an intake on your car? Just want to know if that sound are off of a mixture of the intake and your good looking muffler.

just for clarification

are we all in agreement that the Skunk2 and Invidia are the same kit with different tips? don't know if i could live with the flamed tips of the Invidia for too long. where could i get the Skunk2 if i go that route?

ooh, I definitely like the non-brazed tips of the Skunk2

I'll contact Skunk2 and provide feedback
[edit: e-mail sent, now twiddling thumbs]

still love the Milltek

There are so many cool exhausts out there! I'm still partial to the Milltek. Even with the header, it makes so little noise at highway speeds that it's not unpleasant on road trips. No drone! It has a nice sound under accel and burbles under decel. Install was easy. Great torque. Very good HP.

Some are lighter (Alta, Quicksilver), some have slightly nicer tips and welds (UUC), but I wouldn't trade my Milltek for any other brand.

Choose your favorite drink and you will be drunk at the end anyway...stick on what you have, becuse I would not trade mine for anything else as well...this is the best one I have ever seen and listen....power is more than I asked for...

I like Miltek as well, but I don't like the way they look from the rear....look like you are hanging 2 bags on the back..

On highway Invidia is pretty much no sound....no drone...until you step on gas...then you can hear the power is coming!
