Hey, just recently bought a version 3 sti, its a bit different from what I have had previously which were hawkeye & blob eye.

Anyway the problem I have is the exhaust is just too loud, and I mean it wakes up my full street if I start it at night or early morning!

It was a custom set up and I dont have much information about it.

I was wondering if anybody can recommend another exhaust that would be able to handle the power, its currently running at 360 BHP, but I want something that will still give me that Subaru burble....

Any help/recommendations are highly appreciated. Thank You.

 

Miltek or traditional style H&S

 

Revolution exhausts are at the quieter end of the market and neighbour friendly I run 400 ish BHP through mine...........

Ditto re the Milltek, although only 360bhp for me.

 

Miltek for me too, running similar power with full 3" with H&S sport cat. Nice sound but not silly loud.

 

Have you considered a Prodrive one?

 

Miltek or Revolution are known as the quiet ones. And both do 3" straight through varieties. I've had both. The revolution one is good value for money and decent quality in my opinion.

Sorry why do most people get for Classic's traditional style H&S and not Angled Jap style H&S??? As getting one next weekend with decat and questioning weither to get Jap Style???

 

I also run a STI V3. When I got it it had a Miltek 3" full system fitted, great quality system but was very quiet and didn't quite fulfill my requirements. I wanted a system that was loud enough to know it was an Impreza but not loud enough to wake the street.
After many phone calls and talking to dealers I finally decided to go with a 3" system that scoobyparts.com do. It's a full tornado system with bellmouth downpipe and 4 inch tail pipe. Sounds fantastic, burbles on tickover (I have gt-spec manifold so would burble even more on a car with standard manifold ), not too loud at cruising speeds, doesn't drone but really comes alive at full chat. Best system I've had on any of my Subaru's.
Tim is a great guy and always willing to have a deal, think I paid £350.
My car is running circa 400bhp.

 

The straight exit looks cleaner, but the jap-style shows off more of the exhaust back box. Down to taste and preference really.

 

Do they do a down pipe for new ages? I had a look on their website and only say cat back systems.

 

I bought my Miltek from here. Really good personal service from them. Sounds like you're after the MSSUB131?

Give Tim a ring buddy, he'll sort you out.

 

RCM 3'' all the way from the exhaust ports through to the rear bumper, awesome. I have had this system for several years now and have just introduced the team ice rear section in nice white ceramic......

Noisy it is, though with the centre resonator it kind of takes the edge of it....

looks the business from the back now.....

 

If I change my exhaust, will I have to get the car mapped again to match that exhaust set up?

Since I think I recall previous owner saying something about the remap being done with the exhaust specifically set up for that re-map or something along those lines....

Not sure really, So any help would again be really appreciated....

 

If you remove the cats then your should get it remapped.

 

hi if i was to change my exhaust to a quiter would i have to change the manifolds etc as everything has been changed

 

downpipes are also custom

 

H&S as already mentioned - check out the group buy section as I think another may be just about to start.

 

I'm using a Revolution system running over 600 bhp.. Nice and quiet aswell..

Alan...

 

hi alan what inch sytem do you have? and do you run anti lag through it?

 

The Jap style one is A LOT louder as well .... had one (along with a full decat) on my RB5!!

 

If it's a custom exhaust, have you considered just getting the silencer changed? It'll be cheaper than going for a complete system.

hi ryan i dont think my exhaust has a silencer its a custom stainless steel exhaust. would a silencer cause any loss in power or would i have to remap the car?

 

You wouldn't need a remap, by their nature silencers do cause a reduction in power but tbh I doubt you'd notice any difference.

 

ryan do you have a silencer in the back box or in the middle box?

 

Milltek for me not to loud, but nice burble on tick over, and sounds great at full chat.
