There isnt another WRX that I have heard that sounds like mine.there really is no muffler on it. its pretty much the piping and then splits into dual tips. it sounds pretty much the same if I run the car off the DP.
Hey NJ Dino, do you have a sound clip of your exhaust? It sounds the same as if you run it straight out the dp you say? That must be pretty loud. I just looked up atr and it doesn't look like it has a resonator. Is this true? So there's just a muffler at the end...or does the muffler act more like a resonator (i.e. can you see straight through it?)

Mbquartz, thanks for the advice. I know I'm taking chances with the cops and all by doing this, but I'm hoping to have a catback on it pretty soon. I'm in the east bay, too. Where are you located??

You can find me in either Orinda, Walnut Creek or Dublin depending on the time and day.

you can see straight through it. and that it. 3 inch back to the resonator and then two tips. sound clip? not at the moment. I have a video with audio of my car in its infant stages. I think it had intake dp exhaust. but it might be just intake/exhaust. I can email it to you since I dont have anywhere to host the video

rally cars have full length exhausts. i think some run cats, depends on the racing organization, class, etc...

the flames may look cool, but they might as well be a massive neon sign that says "Hello Cops! Look ma! I'm catless!!"
