Cool Post PICS of your cat-back exhaust on your STi!

The reason for this is that I want to get a cat-back exhaust but have not yet made my mind as to which one I want. I was considering the Greddy EVO2 but after so many stories of fitment problems I don't know... and just yesterday I saw the new DC Sports exhaust for the STi and it looks hot. Please post pics of your cat-back exhaust (preferably NOT angled) so I can broaden my options!

FYI not only do the EVOs have fitment problems, but I have seen in person the hanger breaking off the resonator section.

I'll try to get you some pix of my Tanabe, but it is angled, and prolly not what you want!

do this:

either get the XR-1 Borla with a special low-back resonator installed for quiet, or get a Borla Hush and either live with the twin tips, or have an oval tip installed.

Do you live in the Bay Area?

I have a BPM TBE and it sounds sweet. I have the silencer in while on the streets to keep it down. I don't want the po po harassing me. You can listen to it in my track vid (w/o silencer).

I've seen the hangers line up so poorly you couldn't fit a hanger on the resonator-to-body hanger.

I've seen the hanger on the resonator break off leaving a hole.

The guy I got my EVO exhaust one of the hanger broke off the muffler itself he thought it might have been cause from the KartBoy hangers due to them not allowing very little flex of the exhaust. I had it welded back on about 4-5 months ago and no problems..
