Great sounding exhaust but if you want something quite and without drone I'd look else where. You'll also have to wait about 4-5 months for it to be made too. You might want to check out berk. Invidia is a decent exhaust but they had issues with cracking welds on their mounts awhile back that some of the member on the site had to deal with. I think invaidia backed their product and took care of the problems but who wants to deal with that.

They weren't cracking welds on mounts. The old design had flex sections that would tear and leak exhaust air. Notice I said old, the new flex sections have been redesigned and all Geminis on sale now feature the new ones.

I have them, and the redesign was very smart and holds up just fine, especially if you're using OEM brace.

Agreed, the bigger issue was leaking flex pipes, I was working off memory. Although, a few people have has some issues with the welds as well.
