Anyone Recommend A Good Exhaust?
Hey, just recently bought a version 3 sti, its a bit different from what I have had previously which were hawkeye & blob eye.
Anyway the problem I have is the exhaust is just too loud, and I mean it wakes up my full street if I start it at night or early morning!
It was a custom set up and I dont have much information about it.
I was wondering if anybody can recommend another exhaust that would be able to handle the power, its currently running at 360 BHP, but I want something that will still give me that Subaru burble....
Any help/recommendations are highly appreciated. Thank You.

Miltek or Revolution are known as the quiet ones. And both do 3" straight through varieties. I've had both. The revolution one is good value for money and decent quality in my opinion.

I also run a STI V3. When I got it it had a Miltek 3" full system fitted, great quality system but was very quiet and didn't quite fulfill my requirements. I wanted a system that was loud enough to know it was an Impreza but not loud enough to wake the street.
After many phone calls and talking to dealers I finally decided to go with a 3" system that scoobyparts.com do. It's a full tornado system with bellmouth downpipe and 4 inch tail pipe. Sounds fantastic, burbles on tickover (I have gt-spec manifold so would burble even more on a car with standard manifold ), not too loud at cruising speeds, doesn't drone but really comes alive at full chat. Best system I've had on any of my Subaru's.
Tim is a great guy and always willing to have a deal, think I paid £350.
My car is running circa 400bhp.

The straight exit looks cleaner, but the jap-style shows off more of the exhaust back box. Down to taste and preference really.

RCM 3'' all the way from the exhaust ports through to the rear bumper, awesome. I have had this system for several years now and have just introduced the team ice rear section in nice white ceramic......
Noisy it is, though with the centre resonator it kind of takes the edge of it....
looks the business from the back now.....

If I change my exhaust, will I have to get the car mapped again to match that exhaust set up?
Since I think I recall previous owner saying something about the remap being done with the exhaust specifically set up for that re-map or something along those lines....
Not sure really, So any help would again be really appreciated....
