Cheers Simon, remember reading something about people having a nightmare and was not sure if that was only with the Satnav units, well will order one now, at £1.49 it must be the cheapest thing I have ever bought for the car!!

Anyone know if the sti mudflaps sold by revolution fit both front and rear? as my poor white car is in desperate need of some snow deflectors
Poor Matt and Olly would have a panic attack if they could see the colour of it now

Father Xmas has delivered the following to be fitted to my hatch -
Recaro CS front seats (which will finally fix the worst failing of the standard car imo) - just waiting for the bespoke adapters to turn up (you use the standard runners in conjunction with these)
More power & noise - K&N filter and Magnaflow exhaust
Handling - Eibachs springs (not shown), Whiteline front & rear ARB's, front brace and rear subframe bushes (not shown)
Also have an STi copy lip to go on plus a Zunsport black grill set.
Cheers to Mrs D and her fellow conspirators - RB5-286, Steve C, Phil A and Revolution

Just how it should be done, still gutted I was not brave enough for the Magnaflow, saying that though I get enough looks at my daugters nursary with the PPP box, with the Maga they would think hell was arriving outside, LOL!!

Signing in!
Moving onto my third Impreza when I collect it this week coming (was registered on Friday 31st to beat Subaru UK price increase and Vat increase)
It's a Red STI hatch, totally standard (for about 5 minutes no doubt)
Previously had a silver 03 Wrx for 3 years which had quite a bit done to it and after that I had STI version 1 number 21 which was superb and had quite a lot done to it but looked visually almost standard - has a unique version 1 spoiler and a handbuilt STI engine etc
Pleased to be back. Catch me on SIDC as WRXMANIA
Brian :-)

Did that on my Hawkeye and along with the Prodrive backbox released just the right amount without being too neighbour annoying!
The Magnaflow does sound good from what I've heard on Youtube though!

All very nice. I love the seats and have been looking at them on the revolution website. I would love to get the seats but am not convinced I could fit them. I look forward to hearing how you get on and how much of an improvement the seats are.

Go back a few pages on this thread and you will see a couple of pics of mine where I have chopped out the center resonator pipe and replaced for a straight through section, had to get the pipe custom made as nowhere in the Uk seems to sell a complete straight through pipe, well for a resonable price anyway.

I think in time more companies will release a centre section ie H&S?
So in conclusion then it's the back box that seems to make the major difference on cat back exhausts for the hatch?

p.s. a full turbo back exhaust system (there a few different suppliers now) with a decent cold air intake (in the wing) & a re-map gives the best results on the hatch STI

Surely more companies will start making a standard centre resonator section replacement pipe sooner rather than later.
I haven't seen a diagram (or the real thing for that matter - YET) so not sure of all the different components for the hatch exhaust but I would of thought it'd be pretty standard and similar to other models, until it gets to the back box that it is.

They are around but cost an absolute fortune, have seen them for £200+ just for the centre pipe, most of which are only available in the US so with shipping are a joke costwise, this cost a hell of a lot less.
Scoobyworld are looking into making one up but I just could not wait!!
