If your in Cardiff pop down and see Charlie at Prospeed. He is probably the best exhaust manufacturer in the uk. Never heard a bad word about him. Or give him a ring on 02920 461444. He can make an exhaust sound exactly how you want it

You need to change the headers for an un-equal set to get the burble. I beleive Borla in the states do them but I'm sure you can get them over here now.

Scooby MAD has a set on his sport and sound mint

That's right Dan, Borla will give you the burble your looking for.

Spend some time on www.imprezasport.net as well it's a wealth of n/a information

Put a borla manifold on it (the ebay ones are just as good, used on mine and is still going 4yrs later) and it will sound great, loads of burble.
couldnt belive the difference when i did my sport sounded awsome.

Then you can go onto de-resonated center pipe and then removing the cats and then a different back box if its still not loud enough

Just found a vid i made a few years ago, was bored and popped down to the shop lol, think this was with de-cat, borla type manifold and i think a ninja back box, or it might have been a prodrive back box, cant remember for sure
