I got the full cobb tuning and went w/ cobb u/p, d/p, and exhaust. I also went ahead and got the accessport too. The sound isn't too noisy and is only a bit louder than stock, but it's definitely what a flat four should sound like! My buddy has a stock STi and was jealous of the sound.

The pipes are the bottle neck on stock wrx's and so once you open up the pipes you can gain about 30% of the performance back. Chip + TBE + u/p + d/p should get you close to 60-70 HP. It's a world of difference.

Whatever route you decide to go, you'll definitely see and feel the difference!

im not trying to steal the thread but if you do all the cobb tuning exhaust and then throw on a manifold, is it still going to be that quiet?

thats what i wanted but the subaru mechanic here said he preferred perrin or invidia. he said helix was ok but it was cheap and not cost wise. will a manifold turn that quiet loud?

Im always for the greddy evo2. Full 3 inch catback, stainless stell piping with a nice muffler. Not really a huge fartcan n1 design but its got a nice big tip. Not loud but not really that quiet imo. Matched up with a dp and up it would sound perfect.

im running a greddy evo with a perrin catless downpipe. Its not loud at all compared to the helix exhaust setup or cobb tbe. Definately wont catch any cops attention if you're not driving like a madman or sitting next to him at a stoplight

just wanted to add...its only a hair louder than my prodrive axleback. that kinda gives u a better idea of the loudness of the greddy

I felt it was a bit louder than I expected. Now I do not even notice the exhaust sound. Compare to the other exhausts, this is the quietest one! You need to hear the other exhausts in person (damn they're loud).
