07 WRX Exhaust and Springs which ones??
Hi Guys!
Looking an exhaust for my 07 Hawkeye and some lowering springs!(only 16k on the car)
Exhaust recommendations anyone?, something with a nice note and not to expensive!
Spring wise I was thinking H&R or Tein any thoughts?

I'm having a Revolution 3" downpipe, decat and stainless back end with 4" round tip. Have also opted for the Tein springs too :-)
All this for my 56 Hawkeye.
All in all - not as expensive as first thought. Have been told that the db reading at 3/4 revs / 0.5m (standard trackday testing) is 95db so should just about hit the spot.
I was concerned about a system being too boomy both in the cabin and outside - but having been in a car with this system in I was sold within minutes!!

It was a little harder all round but not uncomfortable by any means! The car looks better (about 30mm lower) and the understeer issue is sorted out - thankfully! Will find out how it handles on track next weekend too (I tracked it last week on standard springs) so should be a good test.
Revolution Peformance Motorstore is where I got everything from.
Ask for Keith and tell him Lee sent ya - they are sponors on here I believe too.

The up pipe is the small pipe off the back of the turbo.
The down pipe is the main restrictor and decatting this will give the best power gains.
I went for decat downpipe and back box.
