Upgrading vehicle’s exhaust system is a great way to build horsepower, free up trapped torque, and improve upon restrictive factory systems. The larger pipes, low-restriction mufflers, and tuned resonators of a well-designed performance exhaust system can make a world of difference on your vehicle. The net result is lower auto exhaust backpressure, more horsepower, more torque, and a much better sound.

Surachai Moua –
I really like this!!!! it’s a really good deal for what it is. the quality was better then excited the sound is amazing it’s not the loudest thing but a cop followed me today and he/she didn’t pull me over soooooo we GOODDDD!!! i can hair my turbo more but it’s not the greatest. it also didn’t fit that well but if any one who is putting it on a 2005 WRX which is what i put it on the muffler won’t line up as will but i found out that if you put to bushings next to each other to make the muffler drop lower it will fit better and it won’t be touching the bumper.Tune: i use Cobb stage 1 tune it support a cat back but i’m not a tuner.

I ordered this catback for my daughters car. She wanted to “hear” the exhaust but modding cars my entire life, I know cheap mufflers sound like crap. THE MAIN REASON WE WENT WITH THIS ONE WAS BECAUSE IT SAID 2.25″-2.5″ PIPING, BUT ITS ALL 3″. I had planned to just order a better muffler but now i think i need an entire new catback because the piping is too large for an NA motor. It sounds embarrassing

This exhaust started off as a decent option, aside from the raspy notes that sound like a can on a honda. 1 year in the welds inside the muffler came loose and the baffles have a horrendous rattle especially at idle. Id recommend spending the extra couple dollars on a better setup, unless youre okay with fixing or replacing after 1.5 years.

Piping all fits well, but the hangers in the muffler are too low for standard rubber hangers. I do not care for the sound of the muffler, doesn’t sound like there is any packing inside of it and without resonators it is too raspy for my taste. Good product for the price and with a resonator or two it should be much better.

This was worth ever penny I paid for it. It is light, durable and the sound will make you take notice while you enjoy it driving. I had to do a little modification, but it worked on my not WRX/STI Subaru. The diameter is just what I needed to get exhaust fumes flowing.

installed on my 2002 WRX that was already protuned on 93 with the stock catback. That being said they weren’t kidding about high flow, the car now has boost creep (not the company’s fault). So yeah, works as advertised, though it does rub the bumper a bit and the hangers may be a bit looser since the hanger rods are thinner.

Exhaust maid rather cheaply. Using the provided gaskets that came with the kit my vehicle had an exhaust leak on first start up coming from both the turbo flange to downpipe and another one from down to mid pipe. Copper RTV exhaust sealant worked but putting out another 15$ on exhaust silicone shouldn’t be needed if the products flanges were made true and square.Also the unit hands extremly low and I bet the first thing to give out is the flesh joint whis is closest to the ground.

I was skeptical at first to buy but I’m glad i did it woke up the car i can’t believe it sounds so good. That being said be prepared to fuss with the fitment it just touches my bumper very slight rattle but I’m over it because of the price
Amazon Customer –
The exhaust did not fut.
The exhaust system says it will fit 02-07 and it did not fit my 2007 Impreza.Amazon said to contact the manufacturer, contacted manufacturer and they said too bad you bought it on Amazon.Modified the system, had to add 4”/100mm in length and widen the rear mounts.I would not buy.

Cheapest straight pipe/cut off the muffler
(2005 Subaru wrx)Honestly it would not fit without extended hangers (evil energy universal hangers) and the muffler sounds like crap! Makes the sound like a tin can and muffler rattles. Anyways finally got the exhaust installed set the car on the ground and started it reved it up a few times and that’s all I needed to hear. Jacked the car back up and chopped off the muffler. Now I have a 3 inch straight pipe from the turbo back. Going to get a piece of pipe welded up so the exhaust makes it out of the back of the car and get a big 3inch vibrant resonator welded in as well. Only good thing about this catback is combined with a Cheap 3 inch eBay/Amazon downpipe it will be the cheapest straight pipe you can get. 🙂
