  1. Engine and Exhaust
    Hello!! I bought a PRODRIVE oval tip muffler (that is considered kinda rare here) and the guy also supplied the PRODRIVE midpipe. (that is just a tube of 2,5 inches without the resonator the car has on the stock midpipe). Never fond of big noises but I heard its a quiet setup making only a nice...
  2. Sourcing Parts & Accessories
    Recently had a good chunk of my exhaust system fall off, looks like most can be salvaged but the muffler towards the rear is too rusty to be welded, does anyone know of a decent muffler that's not going to be to loud and won't break the bank?
  3. EJ20 - 2.0L Turbocharged
    Hey guys, first time posting here. Here is my issue: My cats were bad and my muffler was rusty. So I had to remove both cats and I replaced the muffler and threw the old one in the garbage. But now I have boost creep issues when the weather is cold. I've found a thread on the Nasioc forum...
  4. FB25 - 2.5L Non-Turbo (2011- 2018)
    Hey guys, So I swooped up a Nameless 5" Axleback and, of course, it drones (CVT). It was an impulse marketplace buy and I got it for a steal. I'm stoked about the sound other than the 1800-2200rpm drone and would like to make this work or find something comparable in both sound and price. I'm...
  5. Engine and Exhaust
    Hello. I have already chosen the nameless Exhaust with 5 inch mufflers. I need to replace the rusty mid-pipe and I’ve seen some people use a WRX mid-pipe. What year of WRX would fit my 2012 2.5X?
  6. Engine and Exhaust
    Hey guys, I'm wanting to get a bit more sound out of my car (2004 2.5X) without spending too much. I want to replace my rear muffler and leave the rest pretty standard (also don't want to get defected for being too loud) so I bought a blitz cannon on Facebook marketplace for a good deal and...
  7. Engine and Exhaust
    Does deleting the stock muffler cause an issue with exhaust scavenging in the non-turbo 2.0L engines? would it affect the fuel consumption as it happens in some vehicles? Have got a 2007, 2.0L non-turbo forester
  8. Engine and Exhaust
    So I think it’s time that I go ahead and get a new exhaust system for my NA Forester. Because if I can’t have too much more power it might as well sound nice as well. I’m wondering if anyone has found any exhaust systems for the 2.0L NA foresters so I can compare with the quote I got for a full...
  9. Engine and Exhaust
    I can’t afford a cat back at the moment so I’m just looking for a muffler. The inlet and outlet size are both 2” for this model. I was thinking about Magnaflow but I’m open to other suggestions
  10. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    So I’m new to Subaru and just bought a used 2019 sport with about 43,000 miles. Loved the look and how smooth the ride was on the test drive. It’s about my 3rd day of owning the vehicle and I’ve noticed a rattling/bogging noise that usually happens driving between 40 and 55 miles per hour. Any...
  11. General Troubleshooting and Technical Help
    Hi all, hope you can help me. I started my car and noticed the car was making alot of noise when accelerating. It is nder the car, sounds like a hole in the muffler or pipe. When I look from the back wheel it looks like lots of rust where the "y" pipe and muffler piece connect. It's a 2010...
  12. EJ25 - 2.5L Non-Turbo (1998-2010)
    Ive just had my Magnaflow 11255 18" muffler installed on my 2007 N/A Forester. To be honest, pretty disappointed with the sound. I had been told it sounded great but its just not very loud. I'm going to look into something louder and looking for suggestions. Pretty much every modded forester...
  13. Product Reviews
    I own a SH 2013 Subaru Forester X Touring with the NA 2.5i engines. My old mufflers was all rusted and done, so I decided to try these mufflers. I painted it with VHT high temp black paint. I like the rumble out of it and the deep tones... not too loud with the 5" mufflers, instead of their...
  14. EJ25 - 2.5L Non-Turbo (1998-2010)
    Hi ladies and gentlemen, I need help finding UEL headers for my 07 NA Forester 2.5X. I'm not looking for big performance or an ear rape exhaust, I just want that Subaru rumble. That's one of the reasons for buying the car, the Subaru rumble. I've been looking online for days for headers that...
  15. Engine and Exhaust
    I'm trying to diagnose some nasty rear end rumbling, and came across the rear-most heatshield (the one with 4 bolts, above the muffler and hanging between muffler and gas tank). Two of the bolts had rust around them and the tin was rattling loose something fierce! Is it OK to remove this heat...
  16. EJ25 - 2.5L Non-Turbo (1998-2010)
    I recently picked up a 03 Forester. I’ve been returning the exhaust system back to stock and I’ve that I’m missing a piece. The muffler hangs from two rubber hangers, the right one connects up to a stud on the frame but there is nothing for the left one to connect to. I suspect there is a...
