Invidia/skunk 2

I need new exhaust. I have HKS right now but it drags way too much. Will skunk 2 fit an lx? Anyone know anything about Invidia?

i'm anti-invidia. lol.

cuz its overpriced stuff for what it really is.

manufactured by taiwan aftermarket manufacture.. basically generics with the "invidia" logo stamped on it.

and why did they happen to choose the name that a particular JDM manufacture USE to use, but not anymore?

I dont like how they purposely mislead people and get the exhaust all confused. (ie: their website: www.invidiarsr.com using the name rsr for no particular reason... )

cuz if I'm right, you paid $500 for a $250 exhaust.

I recommend:

real RS*R EXMAG cat-back http://www.rs-r.com/exmag.htm you can see the pic of the system for our car.

Apexi WS, another classic http://www.apexi-usa.com/exhausts.asp

or u can get something that from what I gather, is the same thing as the Invidia, but just no Invidia logo on it:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2434306453

its "megan" just another brand they tried (like bombz racing)... but didn't work out... for all we know its the same group of chinese people, since they all live in El Monte, CA.

anyway this post will probably be ignored again and people just like to pay more than they should or something.

but please for 500 you can get a much more quality exhaust like the RS*R EXMAG. specifically designed for our car.

Nah, I traded wit someone on the site. She only got it for $50 which is only the muffler. Its just the name...I know its expensive if u buy the cat back but still its a really nice exhaust system. Have u had INVIDIA on ur car? I had DC TCS before and I hated it and I luv my INVIDIA 100 times more!

Invidia is top of the line stuff, i have the invidia downpipe on my wrx, gave me 19.8 hp to the wheels and 21.6 lbs torque on the downpipe onle. I have kakimoto from the downpipe back which is also amazing jdm exhaust if u can find it or afford it, but im not sure if they make anything small enough that would work on a civic. But Invivia is good stuff.
