Default 09 STi exhaust

Hi,

I'm looking to fit a TBE to my 09 STi hatch. I'm leaning towards Hi-Tech at the moment. Does anyone have any experience with this brand or can recommend something better?

Cheers

Check out Invidia. They even have a titanium N1 dual system coming soon. Contact Troy at Prospeed.

Invidia are a quality system and sound great. If you have cash to splash, get a norm butler custom one fabbed up. Not cheap but sound incredible.

On the other end of the scale, Ultrex do a well priced TBE and the quality is great as well.

I'm in the same boat for my 09 wrx
Tomei exhaust I was quoted by Evo r around 2k but was promised it will sound amazing and it suits the setup I'm after otherwise xforce was the cheapest . Hope this helps

I have the Invidia Q300 and with stock headers it sounded awesome. Once I put elh race headers on it lost its balance between wide open noise and quiet cruising.

I am hoping a bigger turbo may adjust the sound quality a bit further.

I have looked closely at many butler exhausts and they appear agricultural and back yardish compared to the big names.

Thanks guys for your suggestions. After looking around a bit more, I like the stock look (quad tip) of the invidia Q300 and from my understanding it's a bit quieter?

Is there somewhere I can go to get a demonstration of the q300?
