anyways Im about to buy this exhaust used and was wondering how loud it was. I drive to and from base in my car, so I dont want the base cops up my a$$. what do you all think? Think itll be quiet enough? And does it sound good?

92db according to my auto-x folk.

cool man thanks thats just the answer i was lookin for. theres a guy that drives a 240 here on base and they give him hell all the time for his straight pipe

well i was also a base cop so that could have been something to do with it.

use the gaskets they give you they work well. What I did was use some of the permatex rtv gasket black and filled it in around the gasket when a mated it up with the center pipe. No leaks yet and its been just about a year since the install surviving upstate NY winter

Im ordering an exhaust this week and i have it narrowed down to the HKS hi power SR*S. im stuck on which one i should get obviously the SR*S is cheaper 250 and i can get the HKS with shippin for 475. i plan on ordering my exhaust really soon so if someone could help me pick which one i should get. I see everyone seems to like the sr*s and for the price you really cant beat it somethin about it being ebay kinda scares me. any opions or main differences would help alot thanks

Hey...i was a little uneasy at first about the whole ebay exhaust but I ordered mine last week and installed it saturday and am super happy with it...sounds awesome and fitment is very good as well

ive had mine on for months now and you cant beat it for the price. my freind has the invidia one and its sounds nicer and the tone is better but he also paid 1100 for this turbo back while i paid 250 for a cat back. only thing that i dont like is that its not stainless steel. mine started to get rust marks on the tip a little

**wrxspeed56** · 04-05-2009 07:49 AM

Just ordered mine today hope it comes soon

Does one have this exhaust with the charge speed rear bumper

I thought I would share a video of my Rex, going through an old train tunnel, back when it was stage 2 and had a full SR*S exhaust from the header back.

here's a pic of it from the rear on. This exhaust is great, little rust, only by the hangars and it has been on a year with a vermont winter. fitment is awesome and is very sturdy. Once a week i use some LPS fluid, much like wd-40, but works much much better for penetration and lubrication, to keep it polished up.
