Ultimately it is up to you and the final goal. A proper equal length and you won't really lose the rumble. Mine has it but after 3k it sounds more "race" like. You will lose a bit of low end but gain on the upper end.

Divorced vs bellmouth, I haven't done enough research on. I am happy with my bellmouth though.

I love my EL header especially on long trips. The drone of the rumble can be really really annoying. Granted you can drown it out by turning your music up but the drone doesn't go completely away.

Love the way your car sounds when it winds up

Unless that long trip is a 15 hour drive home to Illinois with a 16 month old in the back trying to sleep.

Reminds me, I need to save up for sound deadening before December.

FatMat ... it's about 1/3 the price of Dynamat, and literally the exact same thing for the low grade stuff, and they also sell it in some thicker densities.

NCWreX · 10-09-2012, 02:49 PM

Who traded their 06 WRB sti at my work, Hall Nissan in chesapeake? Im doing the check over on it. Looks to have a brand new long block and turbo.

Raammat is supposedly fairly priced and good stuff as well.

Who wants to help me put my TBE on and go Stage 2 this weekend?!?!

Bald_Wrex · 10-09-2012, 10:17 PM

Are you sure it was traded in and not traded from another dealership?

NCWreX · 10-10-2012, 08:45 AM

The guy traded it in for a titan. Atleast thats what one sales guy told me. Just wondering.

I know

I actually just realized i probably won't be able to do it this weekend anyway since I have to order some XL exhaust hangers.

Bald_Wrex · 10-10-2012, 08:51 PM

Did you not get foz specific?

I did. Does it not need the XL hangers if its fozzie specific?

Bald_Wrex · 10-10-2012, 09:04 PM

IIRC the foz specific ones are good. It's if you get one made for the wrx or Sti then you need the XL ones. I'm pretty sure about that but I could be wrong.

I looked it up and I don't think it will need them. If its too close at the muffler then I can add one there but it should be good

scoobyrolle · 10-11-2012, 12:46 AM

What's going on guys I'm in the process of getting a aem ems and wanted to know if anyone has had any experience with all aspects tuning good or bad been hearing mixed reviews but not from anyone that's been there :-/ thanks in advance

madcatz · 10-11-2012, 04:37 AM

AEM EMS = no tune from AA.

call Gray at MRD for all your AEM needs

scoobyrolle · 10-11-2012, 06:01 AM

They say they tune aem and a couple of guys I know that had their cars worked on at mrd were not pleased with the work that was done
