ok...so im spending my summer in a shop where we rice up cars for winnipegs chinese community (the owner is chinese so we have an in) we mainly do muffler installs for them and stuff...

so this kid comes in with his week old subaru WRX which he has made look like an STI, and wants us to insall 3 inch piping all the way back, and put on his new can...so we do it...and at the end his entire WRX exaust is sitting on the ground...the kid doesent want that dirty thing in his car...so i offer him $60 to take it off his hands for him.

it turns out that the WRX muffler fits perfectly on a first gen...(with a little modifications) and will be way less restrictive and handle the heat fine since it is for a 2.5L turbo engine.

sweet score eh?

 

Hell ya. Nice score

 

he said he didnt want it and you offered him money?

 

Ive not wanted something on my car but i still wouldnt give it away. Like my stereo. i took it out cuz i didnt want it in there, but someone would have to give me money for it.

BTW gregs, i like the new avatar. is it your car?

 

yup thats my gsl-se

 

hey ryan, can you post some larger pics of your airdam?

 

yeah ill try to get some today. my camera sucks bad so... The airdam is far from finished. its just screwed on to my car on the sides. look ghetto

 

put the muffler on yet? how's it sound? Makes me wanna get an STI muffler...

 

i have not put it on, but im thinking it will be a bit deeper, and throatyer then the stock sound...more of a growl than a purr...it should be on in a couple of weeks, and I'll know then.

and I did ask him what he was gonna do with it first...and he said he was gonna stick it in his basement...then i offerd him the 60 i had in my pocket (considering its a 300 mufler i think i got a deal)

 

you can get FULL turbo back stock wrx exhaust systems on ebay for 100 bucks
the stock wrx's mufflers are very quiet, i think it will sound pretty saweet though

 

wait your sayin it's a direct bolt on with lil mod's? how would that work on the performance of the car?

 

good score now check this one out last week my wife and i were looking for some tires for her car at the junkyard( she doesnt know how i like junkyards) but they didnt have any tires and i went snooping around and found a 79 7 all too **** and back so i took the oil coler 5 bucks and lines, and kept looking around and when i came to this heeping pile of stacked cars i noticed a olod turbo 280 and went to see if the hood scoop vent was on tact ( it was broke) and right above it was a RHD s14 with a 3 inch tanabe exhaust in it so i took the muffler which i think is steel wool and it has a little rust but its a dual tip that looks like racing beats but i little bigger i think and got that for 10 bucks now thats a sweet score i thought. then my wife new why i loved junkyards when i told her how much everything could have cost.

 

yards are the shiznit ive gotten a driveshaft, steering wheel, steering wheel adapter, door panel, rear window hatch trim, rear window seal, window cranks, rear carpet, and lots more from just one yard around here. they have or had about 6 sevens out there.

 

I wish yards around here had sevens

 

are you sure its the full system for 100? even if...remember that this is in cdn dollars...

btw... WRX = 2.0L and STi = 2.5L
