DONDOLO Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 So i have a 2006 Subaru Legacy 2.5i automatic as my first car. =/ yeh i know super plain but i love it. but when i bought my car i didnt have much time to look and i really wanted a subie or evo. i found the subie in good condition so i jumped on it. I cant wait to trade it for a GT. But anyway im looking for a exhaust that has a nice purr at the start up but not loud, just enough to make some noise when i flur it but not super loud any suggestions? im also new to modding cars so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nrw Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Keep it stock, or if you must hogzaust it. I wouldn't put much money into a 2.5i personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuveyB Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 theres an exhaust video thread in here somewhere, itll give you some examples of what most of the exhausts sound like, although most of the cars are gts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 check out the exhaust forum. Its a sticky up top You can even remove the stock mufflers and have custom pipes & tips installed. I did that to my 09 Spec B, Been that way for over a year now. Oh yea, check out youtube too 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

iNVAR Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Keep it stock, or if you must hogzaust it. I wouldn't put much money into a 2.5i personally. ^-- I agree. i have an LGT and i regret spending 700 on my SPT v2 exhaust. no discernible performance gains, and was significantly louder, caused droning on the highway (more than i'd like) and i ended up paying to have a 3rd muffler welded in. there are better thiings to spend your money on than making your car louder. i know that now...

alegend90 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Personally, I would work to keep the 2.5i in it's stock form especially if you want to eventually get a GT. It will keep some extra cash in your pocket for when you do decide to trade up, and you also won't have to worry about trying to sell your current car later with aftermarket parts. I'd imagine on this particular car it may hurt resale value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWSPECB Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Keep it stock, or if you must hogzaust it. I wouldn't put much money into a 2.5i personally. Exactly. Plus if your planning on trading as soon as you find a GT you like why put money into the 2.5i? Hogzaust it. Save the mod money for the GT.

DONDOLO Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 all of you guys have valid points but so far i have installed HIDs i have some rims (18s) and i put a K&N short ram intake in it, i love the way that sounds. but u all are speaking the truth im going to take your advice and keep it how it is until i find a LGT.

bmx045 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 they make a k&n short ram for a 2.5i? since when? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DONDOLO Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 well its actually for a LGT but this girl bought it for me and i just installed it and ran a hose to the engine. i have all the stock parts for my subaru and ill probably install them agian once i trade it in and get a GT.
