So Skyler, my 02' 2.5 RS needs a new full exhaust..but I need help finding a decent one..and I'm alittle ignorant about Subarus and their exhaust systems(embarrassing).. help?
budget? is there a style you prefer? stupid loud, annoyingly loud, regular loud, almost loud, passive-aggressive loud, quiet?
OBX (from ebay) sells full systems for a decent price. That would delete the catalytic convertor, which isn't technically legal, but they are quite raspy systems. Not sure what they sound like when mated to their cat-back system...but when mated to an STi catback, it's quiet but not the normal Subaru sound.
Hmm..budget? Me and my spoiled self wouldn't know..under $300?..that's just a guess..or something. But just regular loud would be quite ok with me Yea, I looked at those..not that bad
As everyone has already said the Borla (or similiar knock offs) are great headers and really bring out the boxer rumble. They do tend to be kind of pricey though, but a used set would be definately worth it. Beware they do tend to crack and it would be something to look for if you are going to look in the used market. As for a cat-back I have had good experience with just getting one made up at an exhaust shop. Pick up what ever kind of muffler you like (melon shooter vs. non) and get something whipped up with 2.25" or 2.5" piping and possibly a resonator. Tstrboy2004 does great work so I recommend him. post up some sound clips when you get the new exhaust on!
