You need an unequal exhaust manifold if your searching for the famous impreza noise.
Ebay is your best bet....

Best all round exhaust? Surely it has an exhaust already??

Best advise if you are considering modding a non-turbo Impreza - STOP!
It just isn't worth the time or money.

Sorry, but that's the truth.

might not seem worth it to you mate but if that's what he has and likes then why not ?

Hey, I'm all for that. I had a blue, mk2 astra estate non-turbo diesel when I was 17.
I fitted racing mats and some sparco pedals.

He might not want to ( mod it ) in the same sense that the wrx / sti guys do. Might just want a bit more noise.

i just bought swisstonys (a member from here) classic sport for a little run around whilst im hunting a sti classic.and it has unequal length borla headers and then a full stainless cobra exhaust.sounds really good considering its a sport,dont think you will get any better,think it was £400 new so i would recommend.

rusty12

It's currently a sti rep ( 90% done ) with most of the sti parts on apart from a few bits

I defo need some noise though

On my sport wagon I just had a full straight thru put on! Mild sport tone! Stainless steel system from manifold back £350! I think it sounds great, boot it and it gets louder n louder!

Infinity exhausts the company's called

hate it when people say things like stop modding, maybe we should remember its his pride and joy and maybe thats all he can afford or doesnt want the stress of a turbo going bang so ease up eh

Me too, but all you get from STI owners is "Performance."

I used to have a 150bhp RS2000 4x4, everyone thought it was pointless, especially in modding it.

I had it bored out to a 2.1, fitted a K&N induction, cat back magnex, FSE PBV and superchip. Clocked 165bhp and it'd dare I say it - keep up with UK Scoobs back in the day. Cams and decat could have seen power pushing 180 with zero lag! It died at 150mph before I could find out.

Sometimes styling and sound can be just as desirable these days with all the speed bumps, cameras and traffic.

Well an exhaust wont help you get that on a GX

the sport i just bought from swisstony burbles lovely,sounds exactly the same as my 360bhp blob i had...only upto about 3k rpm lol

TonyBurns

Hard for it to burble because it has an equal length manifold, only the UK turbocharged cars had the unequal length manifolds (JDM's from 2003 onwards had equal) which is why you get the burble

jake1989

iTrader: (4)

I'm fully aware of the headers,but thats what a set of unequal length borla headers are for

TonyBurns

iTrader: (3)

Yup but thats a little bit more extra cost, starts getting expensive then for a bit of burble...

True,I think the whole system on mine cost the previous owner £480,brand new.
Probably source a decent used system for half that though

First post :-)

I got a impreza 2.0 2006 n/a hawkeye insurance was not nice on wrx or sti .

I want that subaru sound too but cant find any help on getting the UEL manifold for non turbo 2006 models. Will the 2005 non turbo UEL manifold fit on my hawkeye?

Any help is appreciated.
