Allegedly, the BPM downpipe is quiet though, so if you were going with the BPM system, you should fit someone else's downpipe. I can defo say the Blitz is loud and audible from a distance. Personally prefer a (slightly) quieter life, but each to their own.

the Blitz system comes with a bung, so if you get stopped for being too loud, you usually get 7 days to get it sorted, when you get home stick the bung in to make it legal and nip to your local MOT garage to get it certified, produce it at the police station and take the bung back out

So you just want the loudest then.... don't care about whether they give the most performance increase or anything like that .

Are you sure you want a Subaru.... wouldn't some kind of Ford RS turdbo be more suited .

I have a hks hiper decat with 3" HKS downpipe, It will make your ears ring. Great in tunnels people just move out the way. Rattles doors on other cars on the motorway when fly past them.

Not good in the mornings if have moody neighbours.

I just fitted the full Power Engineering system and got 256 BHP, no idea what my standard was. I certainly wouldn't want anything louder that this system, so glad i didnt go for the afterburner or Blitz. Think they would be far too loud.
I also need to be under 98db for Goodwood

tend to agree with tone loc.

once again showing my snob routes, but this is blatantly a new kind of owner here!

have never known anyone to go for the loudest regardless.

Find it a bit sad.

Only the blitz nurspec R system (bacbbox and centre section) comes with the bung option. If you buy just the back box (like I did) you dont get this. Thought I was mad looking for a hole that just wasnt there

I have a full HKS hyper system with a HKS dowpipe. I also have a HKS Sequential dump valve and the noise from the system is just silly ! add a HKS super power flow inductions kit and things are deafining ! plus you get some nice flames now and again !

I find the HKS Hiper and HKS SQV dump valve to be loud enough so that they are not intrusive in car. Also you will get power gains.

If you want loud don't forget the slamin' (Theo) TSL Firestorm.
