did you run stock mufflers.Selling my 15+ WRX non-resonated midpipe in very good condition, 3.4 Kg lighter than 14+ oem Forester XT midpipe, perfect fit and subtle increase in sound, $100. Willing to trade for an 15+ STI midpipe. Pick up only in Santa Barbara, CA. PM me for photos.
I feel what you saying as I just got my FXT installed with STI midpipe/y-pipe and Subispeed axleback muffler deletes. Seems more sluggish acceleration especially automatic. S# mode in shifter mode helps.did you run stock mufflers.Selling my 15+ WRX non-resonated midpipe in very good condition, 3.4 Kg lighter than 14+ oem Forester XT midpipe, perfect fit and subtle increase in sound, $100.

i just put one of these on with nameless mufflers. sounds great, im also going to try the sti one i have. but the cars acceleration and torquie feeling seams to have gone away. it still drives well but does not drive the same as the original exhaust. doesn't downshift in the right places anymore, tries to keep down the revs.
any similar experience? i have noticed the change now after 5 day of doing the switch.
Im wondering if a simple throttle relearn will fix or if there is to much exhaust flow.I feel what you saying as I just got my FXT installed with STI midpipe/y-pipe and Subispeed axleback muffler deletes. Seems more sluggish acceleration especially automatic. S# mode in shifter mode helps.
Negligible on mpg for me. I drive like a grandpa in the FXT since it's the wife's, while I go carving with my GC8 and LGTIm wondering if a simple throttle relearn will fix or if there is to much exhaust flow.I feel what you saying as I just got my FXT installed with STI midpipe/y-pipe and Subispeed axleback muffler deletes.

i have compared the wrx 15-19 vs the forester xt 14-18, the motors are the same. the only partnumber that changes is the exhaust valve springs.
im going to place back to stock to see what happens. as well as check for any weird codes in ecu.
i would never sacrifice performance for sound.
but honestly i never thought this would be a problem.
how is your MPG doing. from what i can tell seems like the engine is burning leaner, do to higher mpg. went from 17 to 19
Will keep that in mind. Might head down to Burbank/Pasadena area for a bakery visit soon!If you are planning a trip to the la/OC region any time soon I would meet you and pick up.
I will be up there for work before the summer. If you still have it then I can buy then as well.
If you where in LA or Orange counties i would pick up tonight.
