Big burble
Hi peeps!, my 2001 bugeye wrx has stainless
Steal exhaust, it burbles but on a quiet level,
If I get vortex afterburner backbox
Will this give it a bigger sound? Or would I need
The whole exhaust system?
Cheers

The Afterburner Vortex will probably be louder (depending on what you have on there at the moment), but I found decatting (I only did the centre cat), and putting the afterburner centre pipe (replacing the resonated centre section) made the biggest difference to the sound.
After a while I did find this setup to be too loud on my bug WRX (especially when coming home late!) - and I actually replaced the vortex backbox with a Scoobysport one, and left the decat and centre in place, and was very happy with how it sounded, and how loud it was.
My advice would therefore be - keep the backbox you have, and start replacing those centre sections - perhaps one at a time until its at the volume you want!

Ive just taken the VTA (vent to atmosphere) DV off of my Bug WRX and went back to the standard Recirc. I think it drives better, If it wasn't any good Subaru wouldnt have put it on. If you do really want one then a forge is probaly the best route to take.
If you want big burble how about a Nurspec system. Prodrive down pipe and STi up pipe.Then you would have a serious sounding system
