How about a Roger Clark system? As long as you avoid the Team Ice they are quite quiet

Have a listen on the "let's hear your burblee" thread that must still be at best a couple of pages gone by. There is a good selection on there, mine included cat back to 3" centre section and back box from H&S with 3 and half in tail pipe to keep some of the noise pacified. I think it has the best of both worlds for my requirements, but beauty is in the ear of the beholder lol

I chose the H&S back box because I want to be subtle with all but the way the car moves. The 3" to 3 and half inch rear box does keep things sensible and I don't have the neighbours cat curling up in it during winter months, I'm running a sports cat on a 2.5 Hawk. Just a case of looking at everything out there and making a choice based upon as much info as you can get hold of.

You don't need to go to a 3 inch exhaust just because you're at 400bhp. Consider getting a good quality wide neck 3 inch down pipe, then 2.5 inch from there with a central resonator to keep the noise down. This is what is on my setup!

Miltek here too, Quite subtle at normal driving speeds but sounds mint when on boost. Revolution system is a good choice as well.

Hi

Yes, the first link is for our Revolution system, it is our Subaru specific website:-

http://www.just-subaru.com/exhausts-...c-72098-0.html

Give me a shout if you need one, got Classic systems on the shelf and as Shaun mentioned they are not too loud but give a nice deep burble.

Thanks

Im running a turbo back Jetex 3inch system on my blob wagon, not that loud for cruising and isnt loud on full boost either which is nice, gives a nice pop and bang every now and then too.
