2015 WRX/ STi exhaust options - Page 87

Chew · 03-07-2015, 11:52 PM

Also installed my nameless axleback w/ muffler deletes today haha!

Here's a quick comparison video (nothing special; just like other comparison videos, but this is mine!). No highway clips though:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqdblW9-q1U

The cold starts are insanely loud IMO. I live in a quiet and dense neighborhood in Brooklyn so it'll definitely make my neighbors hate me. Thinking about switching over to a 4" muffler set up due to this. Regular and spirited driving is night and day compared to stock. The sound is really nice (video does it no justice at all; sounds super raspy an civic-y in the video) and there is absolutely no drone with these. Still not classic boxer rumble, but it sounds good in a different way.

They were a great buy, but I would not keep these on long-term. Looking to get a different catback eventually with a different exhaust note.

Gonna enjoy the heck out of them for now though!

Thanks for the video Chew.

I thought you swapped exhausts in the snow on the street!

This is exactly how I feel. At $300 its cheap,worthwhile, and sounds decent but I will eventually switch to nameless 4” mufflers because while its quieter the exhaust note is much better, at least from the sound clips I've listened to.

Dying to hear a video (with driving) of an ETS axle back WITH mufflers and a Nameless axle back WITH mufflers.

Me too, the 2015 WRX OEM upgrade STI catback looks likes it's about to drag the ground.

That said, does anyone know how long the stock exhaust hangars are? I'd like to get some that are a little shorter for my Nameless muffler delete.

Now that I've had time to think about it, I supposed I could just get some exhaust hangars that are a stiffer than the stock ones. Hopefully this will stop them from sagging and really hold them in place.

Another option is to wrap the stack hangers with a hose clamp. This will allow you to tighten the hanger making it stiffer and shorter. I've had good luck with this method.

If you guys are wondering what a full nameless turboback sounds like, check out Brian's car. He's had this set up for quite some time. I believe he has the 5" mufflers, and he said they're quieter than the 4" version.

Although that was before he added a J-pipe.

Couple photos of my ETS Muffler Delete... fitment is unreal. Just sits so perfect. Looks like very quality work and I was most impressed with how they package it for shipping. As far as the volume... you need to know what you're getting into when you get a muffler delete. I really missed not having the radio on because all I could here was exhaust and engine. This thing is super loud and I love it.

Do you know or does anyone know if the ETS axle back will fit to an Invidia midpipe?

I ordered the dual tip N1, and I'm just not crazy about how it fits. The ETS looks amazing.

kyle4236 · 03-11-2015, 01:28 PM

If the invidia mid pipe is designed to mate to the factory flanges on both sides then it will fit. Just take one of your factory mufflers and try to bolt it back in. If it works then great. If not then no

McLazerson · 03-11-2015, 05:10 PM

Anyone got the expreme ti on? Got a sound clip? How does the sound IRL compare to the clip.

iriemark · 03-12-2015, 02:41 AM

Any feedback (good/bad) on the Ark Grip system?

The good is Ark has a signature exhaust note and look that is very aggressive. Amazing exhaust tips.

The bad is they made the Catback to downpipe 2.5" to mate up with stock (Most are 3" all the way through). It sounds horrible on anything that isn't catted (one member had horrible rasp issues on catless). You also have to make slight adjustments to have the tips line up perfectly because the exhaust was originally made for 11-14. Oh, and 1300$+ for the exhaust alone on top of these things.
