Cobb STi vs other company mods
I just checked out the Cobb website with the stage 1 and 2 stuff, but I was thinking about piecing together a custom setup of my own when I get my STi, since I think the Cobb muffler looks like trash. Was wondering how well a COBB downpipe w/ cat works with other exhaust setups like HKS, Magnaflow or Apex'i. I haven't REALLY looked into those exhaust setups to see if they were turboback or not, but I wanted to know if you guys had any experience with piecing together a setup like that (HKS/MF/Apex'i Exhaust w/ cobb downpipe). What do you think will work?

+1 for maddad/daddy's scp parts. I'm running their stealthback with flex midpipe, and I love it. Great power response, and exhaust sound. Nothing beats their price, the quality of their weld job, and the excellent fitment... not to meantion it's 3" all the way through for amazing flow.

Looks are one thing, but I have used Cobb parts on both my last two cars: 04' Rex and 05' STi, and I know many people that do. Their stuff is not "bling" but it is very well made and works. I have the TBE on the STi and even though the cat-back section is "understated" it sounds great and the noise level is liveable. I had their catted-dp mated to a HKS Carbon-Ti and got rid of it cause it was just too loud for daily use and the fit and finish was off some. (It did look impressive)
To each their own but Cobb makes products that work and work well. I also had some APS stuff on the 04' Rex and they also make great products. Word to the wise...research twice and install once...
