Invidia/RSR has just released there new catback stainless steel and titanium exhaust for the 2002-2004 WRX/STI.. What is amazing about this exhaust? Price, stainless steel includes a flex joint, titanium is SUPER LIGHT, and 3" all the way back. Quiet muffler with a awesome 4" tip. Will bolt to factory downpipe or to be used with Invidia or other downpipes.

Pros:
Great fit and finish. Awesome sound.
Cons:
Silencer rattles. Very loud without silencer.
I have the Invidia stainless Cat-back with resonator and flex joint. I also installed the Invidia cat-less downpipe at the same time. This is on a 2005 WRX STi.
This exhaust sounds so frickin\' sweet. It\'s pretty loud. Not raspy at all. Very mean sounding.
Very good fit. No interference issues at all. I used the stock exhaust hangers.
It came with a silencer to insert into the tip. It tames the sound a lot. Two gripes I have about the silencer:
1. minor rattling at transition from stationary to accellerating.
2. Anything above 5K RPM and youo can hear the exhaust straining to get through the tube in the silencer.
These are really minor issues I have. I\'d still do it again if I had the option.

Pros:
amazing sound and great design
Cons:
stays close to the bumper, with stock hangers
i\'ve been researching for about 2 months on which exhaust is the best for me. narrowing it down to the HKS hi-power, Tanabe, or invidia, i decided on the invidia N1 street. i found a very good deal through CVRmotorsports.com and installed it with not to much trouble. it has a very throaty sound, which brings out the true boxer engine, and it\'s not raspy at all, very deep and mean. it sits pretty high, there is about 1 finger space between the top of the exhaust tip and the bumper, but it doesnt bother me, but if you want to change it, just buy new hangers. i recommend this exhaust to anybody looking for one, the quality of this product is one of a kind

Pros:
looks clean.
Cons:
install was a pita.. course my fault (should have left cat bolts loose
Definatly a nice product, did it with the kartboy bushings.
as a suggestion to anyone doing any kind of install work, grab a stick of chapstick you are not going to use (strawberry flavor works best haha) use it to lube up the bushings before shoving them on, they slide right on if you do.

Pros:
the sound and feeling of acceleration
Cons:
the tip coulda been a bit smaller but thats it
This review is for the g200 since its not technically specific in the title. I worked at stevens creek subaru and heard a LOT of aftermarket exhausts and so i got to match the sound to brands. And someone came in with the N1 and i loved the sound it put out, just a bit too cop attracting loud so i looked up invidia and found out the g200 is a bit quieter but still beefy. This exhaust is amazing for the boxer rumble on my 2002 wrx! The acceleration was also a lot smoother. Oh and i took the silencer off immediatly after i got it and looked up how to uninstall it (unscrew and pull with pliers straight out)
I wouldnt trade it for any other exhaust system! cant wait to match it with the invidia dp!
