SubieChik Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I don't know anything about the muffler other than it's Vibrant. I saw it on the wall at a store and bought it...lol. Really any ebay muffler will work....for the most part it will all sound the same. http://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3312070&postcount=1850 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeblow Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 It has that raspy sound that everyone associates with the WRX and STI. I didn't realize that my second muffler makes that big of a difference. It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieChik Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Well it depends.....yes and no. Do you have an aftermarket exhaust? The stock mufflers are quite large and have a lot of packing in them. I am also catless and have no resonator. But yes....I have yet to run into someone that has an aftermarket dual that is as loud or louder than my single.

joeblow Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I've got an invidia catless dp mated with a megan racing catback. It has a resonated midpipe and decent sized mufflers for aftermarket. My TBE is barely audible at idle, low and throaty at lower RPMs, but can get up there when I really give it a good romping, whereas from the vid yours is loud all the time and only gets louder as the RPMs climb. What I meant with my comment is that it sounds more like a WRX or STI than any Legacy I've heard, and there are 5 or so guys around here with Legacys running all different aftermarket exhausts. Yours would compete with one of the local guys that has an invidia n1 race on his WRX. It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieChik Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 lol...yea. I love it cause it is different. When I come around the corner the look on people's faces when they don't see the WRX they are hearing is very amusing. As much as I love it though it can be very annoying. On the highway it has a drone that makes me want to gouge my eyes out with a spoon....really bothers me on long trips, but short ones are manageable And when I take off at a traffic light everyone thinks I am trying to race them and I am only going 35. If you take that resonator off you will get some more noise....those really can dampen the sound sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats all! Does sound pretty good at low speeds and lower RPMs. [ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecBGuy Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 curious, why did you decide to put the muffler on the driver side and not the other side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooKz Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Because I am in a subaru and not an evo. ;p Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blklgt05 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Voila! We now have my single exit made after a billion years and a half. http://i443.photobucket.com/albums/qq155/ConvoySkater92/2011-05-19141347.jpg Video later. Nice, now make it shorter and get a JDM rear bumper with the p/s side exit covered. Then switch to NA hood, upgrade to FMIC/turbo if u havent already, then slap on some 2.5i/PZEV badge and go sleeper-kill some evos!

MooKz Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 I like my hood. Im getting a FMIC that keeps my fogs, and ill look into the bumper. For now, im getting an AP and downpipe. Then headers and up. I want the cosworth stroker kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieChik Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 curious, why did you decide to put the muffler on the driver side and not the other side? Because the left side make is straight back. If you were to rout it to the right side there would be more bends in it then needed.....kinda defeating the purpose of going single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightinchunk Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 imho, there can only be quadtip dual exhausts on these cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeblow Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 How is the left straight back? The downpipe that you're mating to is on the passenger side. That would be the straight back shot. It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieChik Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Look under your car and tell me the right would be a straight back. If you go to the right you have route the pipe around all the crap on the right side. What I meant from my last post was to go to the left was way fewer bends than going to the right. If you remember what the stock y pipe looks the drivers side pipe is straighter than the passenger sideso it kinda makes it more of a y than a Y You can't really tell from the pic....but there is no possible way to go from the dp straight back. http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee192/SubieChik/BiLLiE003.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeblow Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I understand what you're saying now. I haven't taken a good luck underneath to see what kind of stuff is in the way of everything. It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
