BE5 Exhaust suggestions

[splitthecountry]

Looking for a turbo back exhaust for my Blitzen.

Any suggestions on what might fit? I was looking towards Cobb, but it doesn't look like they are compatible.

Welcome to SLi

What region are you from>
What type of BE5 do you have?
What type of motor are you currently running and is it Twin Turbo or Single?
Are you looking to delete your catalytic converters?
Are you looking for less restrictions more rumble?
Are you looking for something subtle?

Thanks for the reply. I ended up buying Nate's car located here viewtopic.php?f=57&t=26544 (http://www.sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=26544)

I'm stationed in Okinawa, Japan. It's the 2003 Subaru B4 Blitzen w/ EJ206 (AT)/Twin Turbo. I'm leaning towards having the catalytic convertors since I am bring the car with me to England when I PCS and I'm not 100% sure on the regulations on exhausts/emissions in UK. Right now it's damn near silent and I want to hear a little more noise from it. I also don't want an exhaust that is obnoxious. I had a 180sx and my wife could hear me a few hundred yards away.

I've seen some decent syms front pipes on yahoo auctions and might pull the trigger. I would prefer not to modify anything, but if it has to be done I can find someone to help me out.

IIRC the exhaust manifold is the same style as the WRX/STI so its about unequal length or equal length when it comes time to buy.

The downpipe or should I say down-pipe(s) are specific to the Twin Turbo design and will require a specific unit and not the standard single unit.

The exhaust is pretty simple.

Quick search can land you with a STi Genome exhaust for the BE5 that bolts-on. I wouldn't call it loud and aggressive but for a factory upgrade it is very pleasant.

I would say hit up UpGarage or network with:
hansvonaxion (he sells parts in JDM land)
Airgne (SLi member working in JDM land)
YamazakiSubaru (not in japan but still a good source for info)

[Cervantes]

no worries man, didn't even think about it

Thanks for the advice.

I went with the STI Genome and it sounds great. My wife and child are not scared to go near the car. I am also looking at getting Prova Intermediate Pipe and Prova Exhaust Manifold. Any success with Prova?
