'09 WRX Hatch Dual Exhaust
Has anyone put dual exhaust on their 08/09 wrx 5-doors? I was bummed to see they only put it on the sedans and missing it wasn't enough to make me give up the hatchback. I'm guessing I'll have to get the rear body cut, but just wanted to see if anyone has had experience with it yet and can throw out some advice.

I dont know for sure, but if you felt crazy enough to do an sti body swap, you could get the fenders and everything, and the rear bumper with the 2 cut outs.
It was done on a sedan which definately needed bodywork but im not sure about hatch to hatch. *edit* Heres a pic I found of the swap. It was at the Tokyo auto salon http://ll.speedhunters.com/u/f/eagam...AS09/sub12.jpg Last edited by AfflxnPB; 07-08-2009 at 11:30 PM. |

Well what we did with Miata's to fit the dual exhausts is cut another hole in the bumper slightly smaller than the original, then bend the material in so it looks all nice and not hacked. Maybe do some searching on clubroadster.net

I know its possible, when I was shopping for my WRX I first drove a WRX with the STI exhaust on it. Note that this car was a salvaged 08 though
So I have no idea how they did it but it is possible. |
