    I have the invidia full 3" and i love it. Remember with a 3" your gonna have to run spacers to put those bars back on... or else they wont fit.

    Negative, it depends on design of the DP. No modification necessary to my 3" downpipe :).

    if you go under the car by where your cat is. there are 2 bars running the width of your car. some 3" downpipes require spacers to have a no rubbing issue with it and some dont. they also make better connectors to put in place of it.

    Re: whats the best down pipe for the iX

    welll.....i have a helix and i have no issues, some people run a megan with no rubbing or anything. there is a few more. im sure people have posted it. and between running a test or hi flow...the hi flow is safer but give more restriction, i think its safer by far incase a cop looks under your car but if you want all the power possible then run a test pipe. i had one made for like 40 bucks at a muffler shop or you can buy one from people here for dirt cheap. and they make them with o2 bung in it. just look around.

    Re: whats the best down pipe for the iX

    I've got a IX w/ Buschur 3" DP, NO rubbing issues whatsoever (bought used for 80 w/shipping).Â* Works perfectly.Â* I HAD an espilier CB (which resonated so badly in the cabin it wasn't even funny (headaches bad AND before running a test pipe).Â* I come from Mustangs w/no cats (so I KNEW what to expect) BUT that Espilier was LOUD (inside the cabin - sounded great outside).Â* SO I got rid of it and bought a Tanabe Concept G - GREAT exhaust comes w/test pipe.Â* Ran it for a while w/cat - smooth/quiet performance.Â* Installed Test pipe and viola - NICE - loud when you get on it...but drive regular and you have NO problems (noise wise).Â* Been pulled over twice since the complete exhaust set up and not even a comment about the exhaust.Â* So I'm happy w/it.Â*

    Bushur 3" DP, Tanabe Concept G FULL 3" exhaust (Test pipe and CB).Â* The whole system fits snug and NO rubbing.Â* I hooked up an 'mechanical' O2 fix and have NO mil/SES light.Â* Â*

    I know kinda long - but I figured you are looking for some answers and comments...so thought I'd give you as much as I have.Â* Â*

    Again though - the DP is not a big deal - look thru the used section and see what you can pick up.Â* You save sooo much money buying used.Â* AND knowone sees the DB so it's not an issue.Â* They all work w/the same concept.Â*

    Some say the 2.75" has more torque in the mid range, some say the 3" has more top end.Â* I went with the 3" because I wanted to help my top end as much as possible.Â* Is it true?Â* I have no idea.Â* I DO know that I can smoke a 2003 Mustang Cobra from a stop and I can ROLL and actually pull (ever so slowly) on it too (I feel the full 3" keeps me going up top when a lot of EVO's run out of steam.Â* So I'm VERY happy w/my exhaust.
