SubeDonC Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 i just got the 05 XT and im lovoing it, i also have a 98 RS but i just needed more room and power. My question is, does anyone make mufflers for this car or just for the GT wagon also is the GT wagon bumper the same fit if i was to swap it out so i can put straight tipped mufflers on? http://sportcompactcarweb.com/roadtests/0306scc_legacy09_z.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03Indigo Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 the LGT bumper does not fit due to the match up with the fender flairs. There are no direct bolt on mufflers as of yet for the OBXT...but you can do aftermarket, like Borla and have the tips changed to turn down. If you want, you can also modify the tip to have them come out from under the bumper, so you don't need cut outs or molds. You can then also have the bumper custom modified to have cut outs... believe me, this is a big issue for all the outback owners here...we want EXHAUST!!!!

sduford Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Where do you live? I'm sure Lachute Performance north of Montreal would customise one of their LGT exhausts for you. I put some cheap 3" diameter stainless tips on mine. I think it looks OK. Sylvain www.digitalfotographer.com - Audi Q5 Club - MB-GLK Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apexjapan Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 The Japanese Outback has a bumper with the cutouts for the rear exhaust, but as it is shorter, you'd likely need the bumper beam as well to get it to fit.

SoldonSubie Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Yes they are, 245/50R17. Thanks. I went with the same tire but the original size, 225/55/17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxer2Blower Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 If you read Cobb Tuning's site, their mufflers (axel backs) don't fit the OBXT, BUT it does state that their Turbo Back does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
