Hey all, I met up with Wejidas today to compare our Draxas exhaust systems. His being the off-road pipe option and mine with the high-flow cat. He personally feels his is way too loud for his tastes so he\'s going to replace the straight pipe with the stock cat.

The audio clips aren\'t too helpful in distinguishing the differences between the two systems but his is more MEAN and NASTY sounding (as Wejidas puts it). My words were \"coarse\" ... we both agreed the in-cabin sound is a few decibels more on his compared to mine.

Can\'t wait to hear it in person!

I plan to get the HKS muffler in spring, possibly with custom catback piping.

Sounds really nice on the S2K (almost exactly the type of sound I\'m looking for):

The boxer engine of the WRX sounds distinctly different from the other cars there.

You mean Boxster? Yes... their engines are quite distinct indeed... sounds like one mean cat purring ... and the BOV is when the cat attacks. :p

I mean boxer.


All 2005 Impreza models feature aluminum, horizontally-opposed SUBARU BOXER engines.

Boxster\'s the Porsche. ;)

are you both going to be at meet 7? if so, I know I\'ll be paying close attention to the sound of your cars... I want a bit more power, but I don\'t want to be wearing earplugs when I drive on the highway!!
