    So I'm considering making the following UPgrades to my 2008obxt:

    cobb ap
    cobb dp
    cobb pulley
    gut uppipe

    -cat back suggestions?

    what if any, are you suggestions? has anyone done this with a obxt and if so, was it worth it? does anyone have an exhaust tone I can hear?

    I had a 04wrx (pictured) with these mods and I feel like I'm the great gatsby chasing after something that's just not quite gonna happen.

    thanks for any suggestions/comments

    pulley? I could go without it and run with the rest. Save your AP money, buy a BCS (GM or grimmspeed) and have bullwinkle tune it.

    Does anyone know where I might find the catback portion? Cobb only offers the dp. Will an exhaust for a legacy fit the outback?

    If it were me, I'd skip the AP and have Bullwinkle tune it.
    Then I'd go to a muffler shop and have them make a full turbo back, it'd probably cost less than the Cobb DP alone.
    Gut the uppipe
    Skip the crank pulley
    and get a good panel filter.

    My 6 cylinder makes 1250 lb/ft of torque.
    Is there a 3rd cat in the uppipe on these? I thought they'd ditched that in the 2.5l turbo motors.

    I called cobb and they said the 2008obxt doesn't have an uppipe cat (correctomundo BS)
