Talking First Invidia Midpipe Installed!! (Pics & Soundclips Inside)


Just got back from Musicbox and Tommy did a great job installing it! Omg I've fallen in love with my car all over again!! Just installed the midpipe and my god it sounds gorgeous. Before with the Tanabe Medalion exhaust you'd get a deep note all the time and it dissappears after 3k+ RPM. Now, it just sounds meaner the higher you go! The actual exhaust note sounds clearer too, not just a muffled deep tone. I drove it on the freeway and there's a TEENY bit of drone, and that's nitpicking it. It definitely seems to pick up faster and a lot smoother too. Shoutout to my boy Chris @ TeamSNS for hooking it up and Sith who took the video for me on his iPhone!

Pics!






Soundclip!

Before: F-Sport Intake & Tanabe Medalion Exhaust

After: F-Sport Intake, Invidia Midpipe, & Tanabe Medalion Exhaust

Will this work on a GS460? If so, is this for those CA lucky folks only?

I would be very interested to hear this under load.
Is there a link for the midpipes?
Will they fit a 430?
