SRS TYPE RE Exhaust 3''

Just got my exhaust today, as I got back home from campus I immediately started to get to work on my 05 wrx sti.
Got it on ebay from nissangtrpower for 300 shipped.
Installation I ran into a problem with running my stock down pipe.
The supplied bolts are too big to fit the stock downpipe holes and the old spring loaded bolts isn't able to go all the way through. Luckily I have a bucket full of random nuts and bolts that I keep and found two of the exact same length and right diameter with washers.
I ended up removing the donut gasket and used the supplied gasket and bolted it right up.
Started it up, no leaks and it purr's like a kitten.
I will be running a catless downpipe soon and i'm assuming the supplied bolts that didn't fit will fit the 3in downpipe.

 

Looks good. Sound clip?

 

I got the same one and like it a lot although some times i wish it was a little louder.

 

will post up a video soon

 

yea I'm running the stock downpipe and its a little noticeable. I will be running a catless downpipe soon and hopefully it'll be louder.

 

Nice, I'm a sucker for the standard looking mufflers.

 

yea im about to do the same thing too. I'm thinking that it will make it sound even nicer haha

 

Sorry to thread jack.
Any chance you willing to part with the stock mid pipe? Looking to put an sti axleback on and need stock midpipe. LMK

 

I took out my stock exhaust in one piece because the axle back bolt is rusted.

 

It'll get louder.....
