Sound Level:
The Invidia N2 features single-layer construction, which produces a louder, more aggressive exhaust note compared to dual-layer designs. Expect a deep, sporty tone with noticeable volume increase over stock, especially during acceleration and at higher RPMs. Cold starts will be noticeably louder. This exhaust is ideal for enthusiasts who want an aggressive sound without being excessively loud.
Why Mandrel-Bent Piping?
Invidia uses mandrel bending for all piping, which maintains consistent diameter throughout each bend. This eliminates the rippling and crimping that occurs with crush bending, ensuring smooth, unrestricted exhaust flow. The result is maximum power gains, improved throttle response, and better overall engine performance.
Why Invidia?
Invidia is a globally recognized leader in performance exhaust systems, known for exceptional quality, precise fitment, and aggressive sound. Every Invidia exhaust is designed vehicle-specific and manufactured to exacting standards using premium materials. Their N2 series represents the perfect balance between performance, sound, and value.
N2 vs. Other Invidia Series:
- N2: Single-layer construction for aggressive sound and maximum volume
- Q300: Dual-layer construction for quieter, more refined tone
- R400: Performance-focused with titanium tips and louder sound
Performance Expectations:
The Invidia N2 cat-back exhaust delivers modest power gains of 5-10 HP on the FA20 platform when combined with other bolt-on modifications and tuning. The primary benefits are improved exhaust flow, reduced backpressure, better throttle response, and of course, the aggressive exhaust note that brings the boxer engine to life.
Emissions & Legality:
The Invidia N2 is a cat-back exhaust system, meaning it replaces the exhaust components after the catalytic converters. This makes it emissions-legal in most jurisdictions, as the catalytic converters remain in place. However, always check your local laws and regulations before purchasing.
Perfect For: BRZ, FR-S, and 86 owners looking for aggressive exhaust sound, improved flow, premium styling, and bolt-on installation without breaking the bank.
Pro Tip: Pair with a high-flow header or front pipe for maximum performance gains and even more aggressive sound.
Sound Level: Expect moderate to aggressive volume increase - louder than stock but refined enough for daily driving. Perfect for enthusiasts who want to hear their boxer engine.
Transform your Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, or Toyota 86 with Invidia's N2 cat-back exhaust - aggressive sound meets premium quality.
