I took a look at the Invidia system and I'm kind'a like the "blued" tips . Do you have a sound clip? If you do, please post or send me an email. I would like to listen to them so I can compare them to other systems. Also, where can I find weight and power ratings on them? Thxs!

I don't have any pics handy right now that I can upload, but will get some. It can be loud, but to me it is a very pleasant sounding exhaust, but it will also let you know that it's there. The big difference that I have noticed is that it doesn't drone. When I am cruising on the highway commute to work, I sometimes find myself turning down the radio to hear it, rather than having to turn it up to get rid of the drone.
Just my 2 cents.

Here is a link to the Volt system.

For the price, even having to have some hangar work done, it still comes out less than some of the others out there, and Chad is right on the money when it comes to the burble sounding even better than stock.
Had to take mine in for our state inspection this past week, and the guys at the inspection place were loving the sound of it. They had to drive it around back to hook up to one of their portable machines since mines lowered so much it wouldn't fit on their lift. Was kind of funny, one guy drove it to the back, another guy drive it back to the front, then they said they needed to check something else out, so a completely different guy drove it back to the back, and then a 4th different guy drove it around to the front again. They loved revving the engine a little and hearing the burble.
Since I have an 05, the hangar brackets had to be modified, but installation, cost of changing the hangar brackets and the actual exhaust was less than $500.00.
Couldn't beat it, and I know that if Chad is selling it, it's going to be good.
Here is a link to Chad's announcement in the vendor section showing some pics of the exhaust installed, as well as what it looks like un-mounted.

Give him a call, you won't be disappointed in this exhaust.

I haven't had a chance to actually tell Chad how great this system is, because I have been driving it so much, but this exhaust is totally awesome!

Does he include the info about modifying the hanger brackets? Did you have it shipped? Cost?
Thanks...

Yes, he included the info on modifying the hangar brackets. Good pictures, just sent them to the guy that did my install and it was a snap.
I picked mine up directly from Chad while at the Dragon this year, so I don't know what shipping would be.
Give him a call tomorrow and ask him about shipping to your location. Chad's a great guy to deal with, and knows his stuff.

Also take a look at the Vendor Announcements post. I gave some shipping prices for all over the US.

Just got the TCSportline from Amazon a month or two ago. It sounds great, fairly loud, but not coffee can-like at all. It's basically identical to the Megan Racing exhaust. $500 including installation. I started a review thread on it. There's a sound clip and all too. (not from me). I would say that if you don't want something too loud, go with Milltek.
