Default Xforce Exhaust

I have a 2013 Wrx sedan and thinking of changing to an xforce TBE system... Anyone running that system? What's it like?

I already jab an Ultrex TBE and not happy with it... It doesn't fit well, extremely loud and drones big time... Also the packing in the mufflers and coming out... That's why I'm trying to ask more peoples advice so I don't make the same mistake

I am running an X-Force tbe on my MY11 hatch. Never any issues with it, no drone and very nice sound (still sounds much different to the older wrx's with cannons though) one strange thing with the exhaust on the hatch is that the 2nd exhaust outlet from the right of the car generally stays quite clean when the others go black, simply due to the fact that the exhaust gasses are forced to the end outlet and not as much gets through to that one. I believe the sedan system is designed differently to the hatch though.

Did you install yourself?? Was thinking of getting prestige exhaust to install this one cos they give 5yr warranty.. I'm looking at spending around 2k give or take and just want a quality system that flows with no drone

With 2k, u might just get norm butler exaust, very quiet at idle, starts shouting after 3k rpm. They r made to fit.

Otherwise, u can get x force for about 1k. I dont think warranty worth anything(?). Have seen 2012 sti making 343 whp with x force without much restrictions.

Mine was 2300. Long time ago though. But if sth happens to it. I might just get xforce (touch wood).
