Default Backbox size

Hi Guys, im new to the impreza world but loving my classic turbo 2000, already getting the itch to do things to it, one thing which slightly disappoints me is it has an STI exhaust on it, which is 2.5" tip diameter, it sounds ok, but I get really jealous when I hear other scoobies, particularly pottering around carparks with that lovely deep burble, mine just isn't that nice a noise.


My question is, will just changing the backbox for a bigger one achieve that sound or will I need a whole new system, and what size should I go for to get a nice burble but not upset the whole of my neighbourhood?

A decent back box will give you as much noise as you want. A nur spec S or afterburner vortex are loud boxes.

thanks for the advice, saw cobra sport backbox on ebay with 4" tip, but not sure if that's going to be stupid loud.
