Default Skunk2 and/or Invidia catbacksystem

Hi! I'm new here I'm Christiane from The Netherlands. 22 years old and completely crazy about Honda Civic! :D
I'm planning to buy a Civic at the end of this year. It will be a hatch 1.6 from (probably) 1992.
I'm already looking for a good exhaust system since I want to build it up with more hp first
I've been told that Invidia is a really good system and that Skunk2 is practicly the same as Invidia. Now I've seen that Skunk2 is much more expensive but I like the design of it just a little more
I've been asking around what the differences are between these two exhaustsystems but noone can tell me. In The Netherlands they know plenty about Invidia but not about Skunk2. And I don't know anyone with a Skunk2 catbacksystem in this country. So maybe you can tell me something about these systems? The positive and negative things. Maybe your experiences or something. I just like to know as much as possible about Invidia and Skunk2. And most important... which one gives more performance?
Thanks for your time!!! :D

I think they are the exact same thing but skunk2 is a US company so you wouldnt have it over there maybe.

I have a Skunk2 exhaust and I love it. Sounds great and looks really good!

Well... got my answer. Skunk2 and Invidia come out of the same factory. So the performance and sound are from both the same. The reason Skunk2 is more expensive is because of the brandname. Here in Holland a Skunk2 catbacksystem is 1192 dollars and the Invidia system is 704 dollars. Big difference. Although it's fun for me to buy a Skunk2 since noone has it here, it's a little too much money. Instead of buying a Skunk2 I can buy an Invidia plus something else

What's so different between those two then?

But.... Now I see the Invidia N1 catbacksystem and the Invidia GT300 catbacksystem... The look almost the same. Does anyone know the difference(s) between the N1 and the GT300?

The Invidia N1 Style one and the Skunk 2 Mega Power seem to be the same are they not?
