Ten Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Hello, So I've had my 2016 Legacy 2.5i for quite sometime now and I was looking into changing the exhaust because I want to enjoy a more full sound. Does anyone have any experience installing a new exhaust system on a 2016 and could share insight? or a video? or do you recommend I don't DIY it and bring it into a shop? I saw a video with a legacy with this exhaust. https://shop.namelessperformance.com/2015-legacy-2-5i-axleback-exhaust/ If anyone has any experience with this, input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, Ten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieN8 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 An axle-back is easiest, and probably most cost effective. I no longer have my 2015 2.5, but when I did, I had a muffler shop make a custom "dual" exhaust with muffler deletes, and I got a lot of compliments on the sound as well as the look. YouTube some sound clips and have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want something that is easily revertible when (or if I even do) sell the car, and the next owner wants it stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't answer that for you, because the delete is LOUD and the 5" muffler is less loud, but is still louder than the stock muffler. YouTube "nameless muffler" and you'll get both sound clips.

I couldn't find any install videos, but I assume, just by looking at the picture, it is simply just bolting off the old muffler and adding on the axle-back? Nothing more?

SubiFTW Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 2 bolts and then taking it off the hanger. It’s a simple install. May take more effort if the bolts are rusted Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin.gaudreau Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I’ve got the nameless muffler delete on mine, I don’t think it’s all that loud, and it sounds great Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubiFTW Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I’ve personally had both. I recommend the 5 inch muffler. Less drone on the freeway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallerRoofic Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Namesless is six plus weeks out if you order new I made that mistake Look for this used cheaper and you'll get it quicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gathermewool Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) I’ve personally had both. I recommend the 5 inch muffler. Less drone on the freeway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'd pay a few hundo for a noise-maker like this; however, I had a bad experience with 5" mufflers on my '08 STI. It droned like crazy and didn't sound very good at WOT. Sure sounded good in the YT clips, though.... I'd have hear it for myself before committing.
