I'm really considering the Invidia. I like it a little louder...just hope it's not too raspy.

It's actually a lot louder as far as raspy, it's not that bad; it's a very nice sound. I say go for it!

it's good. don't notice any difference since the exhaust pretty much cancels out that "intake" sound. Engine compartment looks nicer though

The invidia has a resonator, it's just a lot smaller than the oem one. I wonder how it would sound without the resonator. Any which way, you'll have fun setting off alarms
