sorted.

 

you have a ScoobySport? didnt sound that loud to me at all when i saw you last.... but then again you had the stock cat.....

 

Yeah it's a Scoobysport axleback. Before the RT cat pipe, over 5krpm all I could hear was my AEM intake, now I cannot hear the intake at all. It's wicked loud. Waaaaay too loud. I like the drivability difference though and the feeling of more power - though my CEL came on again this morning $%#^%$@#.


So anyone local in the Bay Area have a stock RS axleback? Please? I would even pick up or rent something that will bolt up as long as it's queiter.

 

There was a guy who was giving away an RS axelback some time ago. Run through the NorCal classified section. I am sure he still has it.

 

I searched and found it, replied to the message. He's in Santa Rosa though and my schedule is so messed up I missed out on a cool thing I wanted in Berkeley because I could never make it over there.

I was hoping SOMEONE between San Jose and San Francisco would have something quieter I could bolt to my RS....

Anything?

 

Try messaging dan2304k, he should have an axleback and another catback for sale for NA imprezas

 

id let you borrow my setup ( STi axleback/custom 2.5" non-resonated midpipe/stock cat ) but i have an exhaust leak, and although its an STi axleback, i think when the midpipe was made, it sits where the driveshaft would go. my L is FWD

 

Sent him a message, thanks for the tip.

 

Ah no worries. I went by Performance Fab again, and they basically told me they didn't want to mess with it because they have had problems making exhausts for people's street cars and told me to go to Meineke in Redwood City. They seemed pretty cool, but then they messed up my RT cat pipe when fixing it and told me "it was like that when you brought it in" even though the very same guy shook it in front of me when I dropped it off, saying "well at least it's not rattling or loose." The donut was missing when I picked it up - so I asked for it. When he gave it to me, it had an obvious mark where it was dropped... The cat goes "clunk" if you turn it side to side, and he said "there's nothing we could have done for that to happen." Oh well. Another shop down the drain. No need to stop by there ever again.

Another friend recommended me a place to go on Old County though, if they can make me a catback this week sometime I will just do that.

 

County Mufflers, if i remember the name correctly is a great place. theyve done all of my exhaust setups since my Neon ACR. i love them, theyre great. Nick ( Thesnowboarder ) also had his Legacy GT setup done there...

 

Haha, yep - that's where I will be tomorrow 8am. Groovy. Hope they can set it up.

 

Thanks for the tips and suggestions. County Auto hooked me up today and now I have an exhaust to get me by for a while.
