I`ve got a Magnex system with a 4" round outlet. Excellent fit and sound and looks just right on my wagon.

Had a little look at the cobra site yesterday, noticed they did an optional silencer on the centre section which said 'recommended' - is it really overly loud without the middle silencer?

When i had mine made they said it makes it less 'raspy' - more smoother boxer sound

Saying that i havnt decided which i want yet I just have backbox and it already sounds nice

Afterburner vortex sounds perfect, loud and deep, but the 3 inch bore catback is a little over your budget at £400+. i just got the back box and left the centre section standard as it was from the factory, sounds brilliant with the standard subaru centre section. just the back box is also a cheaper option.

Just double check eBay(here is link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Subaru-Impreza...item335fe46822) or just Jap Performance Parts Crawley(they have Blitz Nur Spec for 225£,just exhaust and you will need just centre pipe which cost around 150£,here is link for backbox http://www.japperformanceparts.co.uk...p?ID=100870663)
