Why is there such a dip in power near 130 to 140 mph. It's a bit disconcerting considering the price of the exhaust. What would cause such a thing? Is it the design decision to use a H-crossover rather than a X-crossover? I need some additional justification to get this over something like a Joe-Z or a Borla cat back. Thanks for any information/advice.

Seriously, how often do you hit 130 - 140 mph to even notice that dip? I doubt that you'll even feel the max gain of 16 hp over the stock exhaust. IMO, aftermarket exhausts (with the exception of headers) mostly make the car louder. Any gains are relatively small and won't be felt even in spirited driving.

and in some cases disrrupts the dynamics of the car.Dyno date is not absolute but as human beings we want some relative unit to compare things with for a basis. I like a tuned sounding exhaust vs a domestic V8 sound anyday.

Does any one have this particular exhaust or have some insight on it? I'm compelled to the fact that it's constructed from titanium and the weight reduction benefits of it but I cannot get over the the dyno sheet Greddy produced on their site.
For reference, you can find their dyno test sheet here:

Is it the design decision to use a H-crossover rather than a X-crossover? I need some additional justification to get this over something like a Joe-Z or a Borla cat back.

Have you heard a GReddy exhaust in person?

I have this exhaust and love it (using OEM exhaust tips although the GReddy tips look better than all of the similar exhaust tips by quite a margin, IMO). Everything from the looks, weight reduction, quality and craftsmanship, fitment and, of course, the sound. Yes, it's expensive, but I'm not sure what guys are expecting with a 100% titanium exhaust. Try to find another 100% titanium exhaust with as much metal as required by the IS-F exhaust and you will not come close to the GReddy price. If you can afford it, I say get it and don't look back.
