Help identify invidia exhaust

Found a local seller selling this invidia exhaust for frs. Please help me identify if it's a legit invidia exhaust & which model. The box says SS tip (stainless) but they appear titanium. That's what's tricking me. Also, there's no invidia badges anywhere.

The mid pipe looks a little different from the product pictures:

Ask for some photos of the exhaust tips and the pipe directly before the mufflers where the Invidia logos would be visible.

Here is a video from FT-86 SpeedFactory.

It's not legit. If he charging you anymore than 200 bucks you're getting ripped off

With that being said, for 200 bucks its worth picking up, i've heard quite a few clips of the knock off and it sounds very good.

BTW: I can tell its fake by the Y split where the exhausts attach. Look at the N1 rip off on ebay, they all of that like home depot looking Y section where as the real nvidia is 1 piece welded down the center. Also it looks like its missing its nameplate from the rear. on that y Section

99.9% its a knock-off. I have the Invidia n1 with titanium tips, and the piping on mine looks totally different and much higher quality.

you can tell its a true n1 from invidia cause it has the invidia badge at the y. the knock off will not sound like a n1 or fit like one.

That is one of the many "n1 style" copies you find on eBay.
