mine had one fitted when I bought it and it was too loud for me personally as a daily driver, so it only lasted a couple of weeks

I replaced it with a Hayward & Scott which is much better in terms of noise, looks & build quality

For build quality you cannot beat Blitz or Hayward & Scott. Thats speaking from having the above systems on 2 of my previous Impreza's.

I also found that when I enquired to Cobra to have a bespoke system fitted to my old 205GTi, they never got back in touch so I went elsewhere

Had a Cobra Cat-back system on our old WRX and it was great, sounded nice without being too load and definitely improved performance over the standard system.

Have a cobra on mine middle and back box. Was fine at 315 bhp...360bhp...422 bhp....and is fine at 711bhp! So they work and quality is fine on mine!! They can be loud but will depend on what system you opt for.

I have my Cobra lightweight back box (tested at 631 bhp) on for sale if you are interested as I changed over to their Cobra friendly trackday system.

Get in touch with Peter/Matt at exhaustsuk if you have any particular questions anwering!
