This gives the car a more agressive sound... and quite when you aren't on the engine reving it up past 2500 rpms... In total, I think this cost me $3.99 for the 2" straight pipe and $8.99 for the tip.. and (2) $1.99 clamps... in total, around $18.** with tax... ALOT better than buying a $100 + part to get the same sound...
more MODZ in the near future ;]
probably suspension first...

Now onto the WRX crash... the car has VERY crappy tires/rims, the thing drives like it's on donuts... the suspension also needs to be replaced. I am sure if both of these were replaced at 0 miles, this wouldn't have happened. The ABS was ok.. but the brakes I THINK need to be a little bigger.

Did you remove the rear muffler and the center muffler? (also known as the resonator) I have only heard a few of the cars that have done that. Sounds OK but is highly illegal here. I think I am going to stick with a high performance muffler. We have emissions and all that here- not to mention if a shop did that here and got caught they would be fined and possibly shut down. Good ole EPA. Worried about the air.
