Anything out of the SPT Subaru parts catolog.
Also you can pretty much do any brand catback exhaust you want.
The warranty guy at the Subaru Dealership I bought my car
from told me that.
O you can also do a K/N drop in air filter.
Their isn't alot of modding you can do with a warranty without
voiding parts of it.

You want to be careful with the K&N drop in on MAF cars ~ they can foul the MAF with oil, you run lean, engine goes pop... SOA says "sorry" on the engine rebuild!

I never had any issues with K/N air filters and will
continue to use them.

what about for a lease?
ive got a weapon R short ram intake and a bolt on axleback exhaust on my 06 2.5i.

That should be fine for warranty, but what about the lease side of things?

pretty sure you can't mod anything on a lease, unless you are going to buy it at the end of the lease. Otherwise, if you do, you'll have to pay to change everything back.

i plan to keep it, hella yes, but say i take it in for a 15k check, or a 30k check up, will they not perform one, will it void anything, or will they simply warm me that ill have to return it to stock later, or force me to buy it out......
