FS: APS 3" TBE (02-07 WRX/STi)
Description: APS 3" TBE w/ Highflow cat
Miles: Unknown (I put ~10k on it, previous owner said they had ~20k)
Condition: No scratches on muffler/tip, scraping on the bend right before the muffler (cosmetic, not structural). It's a little dirty in the picture because my hands were covered in PB Blaster/WD-40 from taking it off. All gaskets/hardware included (not the downpipe gasket obviously). I replaced the middle gasket with a doublethick gasket from Grimmspeed when I installed it.

I even thought about keeping it in case I bought another WRX down the road, but I live in an apartment and only have a tiny cabinet to store stuff in.
No aftermarket Down Pipe is "Cali legal". Now if a tech over looks the visual side the single cat might filter enough to pass the sniffer. I have heard of some passing the sniffer with a perrin dual catted DP. Im going to find out next month when i go to do my smog, how well the perrin dual cat DP works.

just know its great sounding and you won't be disappointed. My favorite exhaust for 02-07 impreza by far. The quality of this turbo back is amazing, fit is perfect. And you won't draw unwanted attention.

I sold my WRX, so I am just looking for a sale at this point.
Quoted for truth.
Also, a bunch of people have asked if I could part out the catback portion of the exhaust. The APS TBE is unique in that the downpipe/catback do not bolt up to other aftermarket 3" exhausts. Adapters are easy to make but I would prefer to sell it as a complete TBE for ease of sale.
I passed smog with this exhaust when I had it. No sound clip needed
