Which new exhaust for Impreza WRX?

[Patrick F. Clarin]

I'm looking to buy a new exhaust for my '02 WRX, what would everyone
recommend that is not too expensive (not more than $550), does sound
insanely loud, and is relatively easy to install?

Well...would that be a turbo back, cat back, or
axle back?

You can find zillions of axle backs, and quite a
few cat backs in the >$550 range, but no turbo
backs (unless you want to chart new territory
with some of the eBay specials!). www.nasioc.com
would be a good place to start searching.

Borla Hush has a rep for being quiet. Bosal
dual-tip has a rep fro being Harley-loud. I
ended up with a Bosal single-tip cat back, 3" all
the way and $369 shipped. That rate seems to be
pretty widely available from net vendors.

There's probably a coupla dozen more cat backs on
the market!

email in English and get info. This is amazing stuff. A friend of mine
just got one and it's incredibly good.
