TbirdMan Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 You will likely get a bit better sound, but it will still be fairly quiet. the 04 STi pipe would probably sound much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOHCEJ22E1 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Un-equal length headers will give you the rumble while the volume of that rumble will be determined by the type of exhaust system/pipe diameter you chose to put on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 depending on what uel headers you choose, the potentially thin walls may account for the increase in lifter tick noise you'll always hear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QK2XLR8 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I myself have just headers on my stock xhaust. Im not really thrilled with the sound. As Zues marine said the lifter ticking really shines thru and frankly annoying. I will deff be putting some type of cat back on my car to get that classic boxer rumble. IMO If ur just looking to get more sound out of the car I would go for the sti deal and add the header as u get the funds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddog Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 The intake added the tick noise for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
