g'day guys !
 

so just recently I bought a 03 wrx with 70,000 ks. I use to drive a r32 and I new everything about them but I don't no what to start with upgrading my completely stock rexy !!

I've been told to start with a exaust system, but there are so many types and I don't no where to start looking ! I'm after 1 that's not to loud on idle but mean sounding and when I start to rev out more of a powerful sound but again not to loud .

I'm located north of the river so if any of you's have exuast shop or anything for sale can you please let me no !!

Norm butler or xforce varex exhaust

welcome to Perth-WRX.

Plenty of info in the search function of this forum.

If you install a full Turbo Back Exhaust (TBE), you will need a re-tune. If you just want some noise without having to do a tune, then you can install a Cat Back (CBE) and run that, although your fuel economy may go down a little.

Welcome to the world of WRX's

Enjoy

but if I just install a CBE will that be just as good as a TBE ? how much is the power difference between the 2 ?

No.

Turbo back exhaust normally comes with a downpipe that flows a lot better than stock, hence the requirement for a re-tune.
Will see an increase of power once fitted (and tuned).

A cat back bolts onto the existing downpipe and the flow rate doesn't change, you just get a lot more noise coming from the exhaust.
Won't see much of any increase at all.

Oh and welcome to Perth-WRX :D

Welcome to Perth-Wrx mate :)

Whatever you do - do it correctly so your not be advised on motor replacements later.

Welcome :)

Welcome mate. If you get anything major done, make sure you get it tuned.

welcome and enjoy your stay and your wrx
