JWD06OBXT Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Question: does my 06 OBXT have a catted up pipe or no? Looking to take care of the potential danger a catted one could have on the turbos life. If not I'll will be puttin efforts towards a RSB. I have read mixed discussion about the topic and am unsure where the cut off was for when Subaru rid the up pipe of the cat. Thanks you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWD06OBXT Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 yes. 07+, don't have cat in up pipe. Thank you, that's what I thought but just wanted to confirm. Looking at getting a Cobb up pipe. Any thoughts or recommendation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamn Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I honestly don't think there is a massive amount of variation in uppipes as far as power goes. Design is a little different with some of them being solid and the others having the flex pipe. I went with Grimmspeed for the flex, but you won't go wrong with Cobb, Invidia, Perrin, or even an Sti up either. There have been some complaints about the solid uppipes cracking with time, but i don't think that's a game changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
