Hatch Exhaust
The Miltek on the car, very nice it is too, is a little too quiet, and I am considering alternatives
However, looking through old posts I find folk encounter so many issues with their aftermarket exhausts it's put me off somewhat. Even H&S get bad rap now - a maker I always respected, and indeed have had on previous Subaru's so I may just stick Have I been unduly scared, and if not then what is your recommendation? Looking for a turbo back full decat, a little louder than the Miltek, one that is OK 'round town, but sounds good at blasting the beans :) Cheers :thumb: |
Invidia n1 loud as fook
|
Try a Cobra exhaust,nice looking system and not to expensive compared to the miltek

As you're thinking of changing the complete system from turbo back, I assume just changing the back box won't make much difference?

I would have thought the back box made qhite a difference though. The rear box and tail pipe on my FSTi is big, and trumpet shaped. When that's full on in 4th & 5th at about 5K it sounds perfect :) |
I’m using miltek decat downpipe rcm headers and invidia n1
It’s motorbike loud but It’s awesome |

It’s alright I think
Forget trying listen to the radio when you’re on boost thou |
I have a H&S with centre pipe and 2nd cat removed was fitted by the previous owner just over a year ago. Sounds nice and deep not overly loud but turns heads. I see no issues with the quality, welds are all good and looks as new as the day it was fitted.
|
Only one cat in Jdm hatch small cat in the downpipe
|
Is it a resonated Milltek? If it is you can always just remove the resonater between the backbox and downpipe with a straight through section?
|
I have the cobra 3" non-resonated with sports cat sounds great gives a real nice deep burble, and good fitment
|
I have a Invida N1 Dual + Invida de cat down pipe. On my Hatch best sound Ever,,,,,,
|
Full decat is essential to fully breathe the motor
I didn't realise there was a sneaky one on the downpipe |
Cobra don't do a jdm downpipe; your options are Miltek, Invidia, H and S, Infinity Bristol, or Japanese makes for down pipes. I am sorely tempted by a full titanium Invidia or Tomei, but at the end of the day, jdm is much quieter than Uk. I've got sti rear box, hks center and standard downpipe, and it's a bit droney. PTE'S h and S sounds great, there's a clip on you tube under spec c

That's my car yeah. That was a 6k rev out of 8k limit.
Turbo back H&S system with sports cat and resonator. Fit and forget. Certainly plenty loud enough for my tastes. I have the shortest clip ever of the car down Donington Park straight on full chat if you want to pm me your number I can whats app it to you. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...5142dba153.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...49d58050ba.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...e882316fb3.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...7a6b792a82.jpg |

Run Yoko AD08R's on the Type R for their stiff side walls And of course Subaru like them too, fitting BS's to all their more hardcore Impreza's :) |

Tidy job - it's not sprayed everywhere I thought Torque did a clearcoat, not the black you have (says so on their web site) |

Edit: ^What bonesetter said. |
So, I've narrowed my choice down to either going turbo back Cobra with decat and resonator. I quite like the sound of it, and feedback is noise levels are what I'm after
Or, a Miltek decat d/pipe which is certain to make things louder Edit: H&S in the running too. Same price as Cobra and I had one fitted on a 2004 2.0 JDM I owned a few years back which sounded brilliant |
