Greddy Vs Invidia (Revisited)
Some have previously passed on the Greddy SP Elite Axelback due to the argument of "add $100" and you can get a Nvidia Q300 Catback. I too was not ready to drop that much money in an axelback.
Now that the Greddy Supreme SP Catback is being released soon, what's your opinion now? Would you still pick the Q300? Of course the sound comparisons would be speculation at this point, since there is a lack of sound clips available. So to those who did pass on SP Elite and opted for the Q300, would this have changed your minds if the Supreme SP and Q300 were released at the same time? To those who are looking to purchase the Q300, are you now interested in the Supreme SP? Any other opinions are welcomed as well! |

It looks almost like the Q300, but I guess it really depends on sound. Their video doesn't work on the website.

The video on the website uses QuickTime. Works on my iPad and PC computer. Didn't work on my android devices.
In any case, I tried to compare it to the sp elite video, but the recording devices were clearly different between the two videos. |

I have the sp elite, stock mid pipe and borla header, loud at cold start but sounds stock when the engine idle drops. Just enough exhaust note let you know the car has been modded but no drone at all.

I just pre-ordered the Greddy Supreme SP. Here's to be being the guinea pig! I hope it'll sound great with my OFH.

I pre-ordered the Supreme SP too. I was on the fence about it, but then saw the special $596 pre-order price and pulled the trigger.
I am currently running a FT86SpeedFactory catted UEL header and a catted motiv front pipe. Everything else is stock. Just looking to get a tad bit more noise then I have now and get rid of the tinny sound the stock cat back gives off under heavy throttle. Kind of going for a stock sports car sound, since our cars stock are about as loud as a prius lol |

Q300 aesthetically beats them all, imo. That was how my decision was made. Also, it was priced at $640 shipped with Ti tips. Very easy decision for me as I have owned both the Q300 and the N1. Invidia fitment and welds are real good. Price/performance ratio is spot on.

I'm also deciding between the two and i think they're very similar( i rather invidia for the burnt tips) except for maybe the packing material in the muffler section. If they only had the option for Ti tips.

Just to add, never owned or heard the invidia setup, but have the sp elite, catted EL P&L header, stock everything in between and it sounds awesome. Not loud at all, exotic howl when revving it out. Love my greddy
