Default newage JDM WRX

Hi all,

A few months back i was deciding whether or not to sell my scooby, long story short i have decided to keep it, so now it is time to start modding, i know the early newage WRX had the cat in the up pipe along with the downpipe and centre section, but the STI didnt, so my queestion is does/ did the JDM WRX also have the cat in the up pipe or not?

Thanks in advance

If nobody knows whether or not there is a cat in the up pipe on the JDM models then do any of you know if there is a way of knowing if there is a cat in there are there any tell tale signs??

Thanks again

Also, whilst on the subject of exhausts, can anyone tell me if its possible to remove the muffle/ baffles from the back box, i am a stainless steel fabricator so having to open it up to remove isn't a problem

Thanks again

If there is a cat there will be a bulge in the pipe and you should be able to see a sensor on the pipe as well.

If it has two pot front brakes change them as a first mod because they are ****. That's what i had on my last jdm impreza they are just awful get 4 pots with a decent pad & disk setup.
