Has anyone got any experience of the Magnaflow system on the saloon, looks and sounds good on their website but have found other US vids where it is stupid loud and people saying its one of the loudest out there, not what I want but really like the look and price! One of the loud vids did have a decat down pipe iirc so not sure if that would make it much louder?
Hanging out for more to sign up to the H&S group but no takers yet so looking at other options as I cannot spend over 1k for it at full price and I have exhaust money burning a hole in my pocket I need to spend!
Cheers

The o/s Pro R back box on mine has a nice rattle from the bafflers 
My dealer has been informed by Subaru that they want the backbox returned to them before sending me a new one.So i'll either have to refit the standard boxes or be without the car for a few days .
It will also need some new tyres soon,what are you guys fitting now ? not sure to stay with Dunlop or try another brand,
Aaron - I've been thinking about a spoiler for mine aswell,dont fancy drilling the boot
I'm also thinking of the black grilles ,either just the front lower or go full set .
Finally not sure to go for Pro R springs or buy Eibach which i think are cheaper.
advice/thoughts welcome

Im unsure about you but my Dunlops are on 28k miles and stepped on the Inside.
I did speak to Im group and because I do a lot of Motorway and the camber it may do this, Rubber is warmer on the inside. But im going to get the Car checked when its in for geo. But I do get a lot of road noise from the stepping on the inside
I don't think I,ll get Dunlops again, and I do have a full set of Nokian WRG2 winter in the garage with Alloys so I may just run them for the next 2 years.
Unsure what id get TBH. probably something 130 to 160 a corner.

Mines a 320r so just standard exhaust hense why I'm desperate to upgrade!
As for the boot spoiler, not fully convinced I want one as liking the spoilerless look but if I did I think the subtle one Mark is fitting just sticks on, not keen on drilling myself!

so why not the 340R pack you get a nice exhaust then and another remap ? under 1000 too and still keeps warrenty
im unsure but I think Both Don and Tony got them before the 340R existed, and probably would have got it had it been around when we all got them.
But I may be wrong

tyres - mine is on 10k and the inside edge of the fronts are wearing,I've just had the tracking done and I'll rotate the wheels to get the extra mileage out of them.
A line spoiler - I think you need to drill 1 locating hole for fitment but I would have thought it could be bonded on aswell .
As for the grilles I like the lower front fitment ,the complete kit looks good but a bit pricey ,I've been trying to get discount on grilles and springs but not much joy yet.

Amanda not keen on a spoiler so may go for the little lip or S206 if I can talk her round!

Think there is a huge lack of pictures in this thread. Went over all pages and you guys need to post some fresh or old pics up. Said I would keep my hatch but seen a couple of saloons and I'm tempted to trade in when the warranty is up on mine.

ah right, a bit far for me to travel. I thought he might be getting some engine mods done. There must only be me whos not bother about the warranty. Had mine on the rollers a few weeks ago made 358bhp and 377 lbft at 3081rpm.
