I have a '09 2.5i, and I know what Catback I want to get, but I am having a hard time finding a header. I want to get a UEL header so I can get the rumble out of my car. Anyone have any suggestions on headers for the 08+ 2.5i?

The 'needed' backpressure is a myth.... It has more to do with scavenging than anything else... Especially if you go too big of a diameter of an exhaust pipe...

what catback are you looking for and whats uel header and how much do they USUALLY run? i have the same car. err i didn't see if u had sedan or not. My friend was talking about since the sedan exhaust is one pipe splitting into two. I can just go to a shop where he got his flowmaster's for his 71 nova, and the guy there can make it two straight pipes taking off the cat if i wanted too. anyone know if that would cause problems? or sounds pretty good?.

I am planning on getting a Turbo XS catback. UEL stands for Un-Equal Length. With our Subarus the exhaust goes to one side (passenger) and with exhaust outlets on either side of the engine the driver's side has more distance to cover so the pipe is longer than the piping coming off the passenger side. This set-up of different lengths creates the Subaru Signature "Boxer Rumble" that you hear on WRX's, STi's and older models. On the other newer models Subaru created an Equal Length design by adding pipping to the passenger side to match the length of the driver's side. With Equal Length the boxer rumble is gone and the whole system makes less overall noise. As for how much they run, it was posted above that you can score an RS UEL for $100-$175 on eBay. |

Question about hi-flow cats
i have a 2007 impreza 2.5i.
Will the Random Tech Dual Hi-flow cat have places for my o2 sensors, like the stromung hi-flow cat listed right about says? Also are there any cats on the stock manifold/header of my car?And if i put the borla headers on will i run into any problems with o2 sensors/ passing emission inspection? here the site i was looking at for the hi-flow cats http://www.boxer4racing.com/exhaust.htm#Exhaust Headers Also which would you guys recommend a stromung cat-back or a borla cat-back? Thanks in advance for the help |

When I was non turbo...
Intake: Started off with an Injen short ram intake, was really loud and throaty at WOT, sounded really NA and comparable to a honda. Was a typical 4 cylinder NA sound. Converted it to a Cold air intake by taking my friends cut up cold air off his wrx, cutting it up some more, added a 4 inch SS extension and it fit snug right behind the vent next to the fog light. This thing sounded mean, not as loud as the short ram, but you could hear the engine just sucking in loads of air at WOT. Sold it to someone on RS25, they have a sweet sounding car now. Exhaust: Honestly went through atleast 10 different exhaust setups, from stock headers to borlas, and from stock cat to track pipe. The track pipe made it louder, but not hella louder, it really depended on the muffler. Best rumble was from a custom exhaust fabbed up using a magnaflow muffler, that thing shook the ground. My favorite was the HKS superdragger, a rare bird, had this 3 inch monster fabbed up and my car sounded like a rally car, but NA. The Stromung was beast also. Power The track pipe plus an aftermarket catback gave a ton of high end power. I was almost convinced my RS was a pure breed since I was able to light up all 4 from a dig and I was putting stock WRX's to shame???? With a highflowing muffler, low end was a bit, ehhh. I could throw a stock muffler back on an regain the low end but loose that insane top end. I miss how fun it was to drive NA, it was the ideal daily driver. I couldn't even imagine 200 or more whp from a 2.5 NA. My swap is doing me good though |

You can get a new catback from anywhere between $375-$800 and a used one for a little less. You can get a new Short Shifter from anywhere between $70-$140 and a used one for a little less. I don't know much about CAI's As far as I have heard there isn't one out yet that won't throw a CEL. But I could be wrong. If you just want to improve fuel economy, have you thought about changing your oil to full synthetic? |

Does anyone know if there is a difference between the 06-07 headers and cat pipe and 08+ headers and cat pipe. Are they the same?

I know the question has been asked in this thread, but I haven't seen an answer. Where can you find UEL headers for an 08+ 2.5i? Will the ones on ebay work eventhough they are for other years? or will some modifications have to be made? I'm looking for that boxer rumble but need the UEL for it!! Any ideas?
