Default Anyone changed their Backbox on a MY06/07

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a backbox for maximum " Scoobyness"
Don't want a full decat etc for warranty reasons but would like that boxer rumble.

The Back Box replacement will bring back some scooby rumble

but may still be a bit too quite ;') the rear resonator box (looks liek a snake thats swallowed a large book ) really reduces the noise

So may be better to look for a Cat back system

I did that on my Sti7 and it got boost spikes so had to take it off. Will the WRX be the same ? Come to think of it I did that on my 8 also .

I changed mine to a TSL back box and TSL deresonated pipe and the burble is well and truley back, in fact I would say its better than my old MY04 that had a prodrive back box. TSL MOTORSPORT | Subaru Mitsubishi Peugeot Classics | parts | repair | servicing | performance tuning | UK . Back box £175 and deres section £100. Good value I thought. (Dealer should be ok as your not messing with the cats)

I can't wait to get that rumble I've not had a Scooby for 18 months.
I think I might order one today
Just saw a MY04 Sti and it sounded lovely
Thanks for the replies I'll have a look at TSL's website
