derp Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Too quiet? Nonsense, I thought it was perfect. Quieter when cruising but when you stomp it it opened up pretty well. I could suck start a snow blower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I've always felt about mine. Have you had the chance to drive it around much yet Ben? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gex Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 I've taken it out for around 100 miles. It is definitely much more subdued than the Magnaflow, which makes sense since the mufflers are about 1/3rd bigger. I'll have it out again tomorrow and I'll try and grab a sound clip. I made one for the Magnaflow before I took it off. I love the fitment though. Wagon specific is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitment on these is amazing, really fills out the rear end. Looking forward to seeing it on your car, I'd love to do a video our our cars together at some point.

There's a big difference in volume between my front and rear seats, largely bcuz wagon. I get almost-complaints with my K2 Gear exhaust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of my big concerns when finding an exhaust for the wagon and this one seems to be a good balance and little to no drone. Obviously it's slightly louder from the back seats but you can still carry out a conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gex Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 Most definitely interested in a vid with the wagons Nick! Also if I am ever up north with the wagon I will let you know legacybt. I love running up the Sea to Sky Highway! Few more of the wagon for good measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gex Posted October 21, 2017 Author Share Posted October 21, 2017 Thanks Dave! Can't believe it's been almost 5 years since you last tuned her. Your tune started my bank accounts downward spiral in the search for more power! Wish you were local to me, she'd be on your rollers getting tuned for corn juice.

Gex Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) That's the funny thing. Ive never really worried about the trans on the Dyno. The 5 speeds can hold all the power you can throw at them. Its bang shifting them causing the case to expand that make them explode. Clutch is rated to 475 ft lbs!

henhead Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Those new cans do look really nice with the USDM bumper. Do you think they are louder or quieter than the Borla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gex Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 Those new cans do look really nice with the USDM bumper. Do you think they are louder or quieter than the Magnaflow*? It is much quieter than the Magnaflow I had. The white wagon above has the Magnaflow and we had them running side by side. The Magnaflow was quite a bit louder. Would be awesome to see some of you guys come down. The last two dyno tunes I’ve gotten it’s just been me sitting by myself watching her spin.

Gex Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 Yesterday was dyno day at PIA in Tacoma WA. Mike Talbot tuned the car for the second time with the same power mods as before but with the new IAG short block. Car performed very well and was once again easy to tune. Overall I am very happy with the results. The car goes like stink! The tuner said the Mustang dyno was recently re-calibrated so it read lower than my last dyno session in January of 2016. It spun up to 384hp/355tq wheel at 21 psi at one point but was finished at 376hp/346tq at 20psi. Its good. Really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubOperator Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Switched out the Magnaflow sedan exhaust for a GReddy SP2 wagon fitment. Also ditched the AVO Silicon inlet for an AP hard inlet and the momo wheel for a DAMD round wheel. Still love this wagon! It goes back on the dyno Nov 4th! Do you know Greddy SP2 is different from , idk, Greddy? I am looking at one for sedan that I will modify for wagon. 2005 LGT Wagon Limited 6 MT RBP Stage 2 - 248K 2007 B9 Tribeca Limited DGM - 258K SOLD - 2005 OB Limited 5 MT Silver - 245K SOLD - 2010 OB 6 MT Silver - 205K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gex Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) IIRC correctly the SP2 exhaust was wagon fitment only. The EVO2 Greddy was the sedan fitment exhaust with the large round can exhaust mufflers. Either way I ran the Magnaflow sedan exhaust on my car for years (now on the SWP wagon pictured above next to my RBP car). If you look at the pictures of the SWP wagon next to my RBP wagon you can see how much a sedan exhaust tucks up under the wagon bumper.

SubOperator Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I just paid for Greddy exhaust sedan fitment, my son should bring it with him. I do see that on your (former) while wagon the sedan exhaust tips are tucked under the bumper, and the wagon Greddy on RBP wagon are sticking out. Thing is, my stock exhaust on my RBP wagon is somewhat close to what I see on your white wagon. I have to look at part ## to see if Subaru even had separate exhaust tips for wagon vs sedan. Anyway, if that sedan Greddy is too short I will see if an exhaust shop here can weld some stainless extenders for Greddy tips. Thank you for detailed pictures. RBP wagon is a keeper, but white LGT wagon is one of my dreams. Not sure if I should kill it or fulfill it 2005 LGT Wagon Limited 6 MT RBP Stage 2 - 248K 2007 B9 Tribeca Limited DGM - 258K SOLD - 2005 OB Limited 5 MT Silver - 245K SOLD - 2010 OB 6 MT Silver - 205K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
