INVIDIA is no newcomer to the high-performance exhaust industry since they began manufacturing in the late 1980s under the name RS*R with the expertise of the original owner and developer, himself a racer. The company mushroomed due to the increasing need for a primo exhaust system that could perform well under difficult racing conditions. Consequently, in 1998 INVIDIA opened a small manufacturing facility so that they could handle this challenge, becoming quite successful in this arena. Two things served as an impetus to the company to make some changes: their success in racing competitions and the overwhelming acceptance of its products.
