Default too quiet!!

Bought a 2oo6 2.5 wrx but doesnt sound like it should. Too quiet! Dont want to go into major mods or make it too loud. Been told just a prodrive back box may help.Any advice?Chears.

Hello mate i to have a 2006 WRX PPP, found mine to quiet with a prodrive backbox may have been due to the resonated center section, booked into subaru4u in newbury and had a cat back H&S jap style 4.5" angled exit fitted for £389 job done -) sounds awsome, no other mods on mine as yet.

Best regards

Neil 06 2.5 WRX PPP

Hi mate, my bug eye sounded like a sunday shopper with the original back box on. I ordered a ninja2 back box from scoobyworld and the car sounded lovely, not too loud so that your neighbours will chuck bricks at you in the morning, but gives the car a very meaty sound with the subaru burble everyone knows and loves. think i got the box for under 300 delivered! hope this helps
