Just installed...

Ok...I miscalculated my schedule...I was gonna install all my parts on the 9th...but now I have to break it into 2 parts...

So part 1 today...I installed my UR catback with mini-muffler and resonator midpipe option...I also got a Cosworth drop-in...

here is some pics...

The last pic with the muffler on is a bit misaligned cuz Chris haven't tighten the bolts...

Sry I haven't took a vid of the exhaust note...I'll do the w/part 2....so stay tune on that...

My impression on this set up is that from the outside of the car...the catback wasn't as loud as I anticipated...the whole exhaust system has a nice deep note even when gas paddle is being stepped on...however...inside the car I can notice the volume is louder compare to outside (right behind the car)...the is drone noted...but it's not as annoying (tolerable)...I do notice I loss some low-end power...but mid to high range power gained a bit...

Overall I love this $hit...I can't wait for everything to get done!!!

Looks clean! Can't wait to get my U R cat back, already have the DP and HFC just waiting for more funds to get the cat back I love the way it sounds on videos but I'm sure it's not the same. I have a quick question, the turbo back kills the warranty right?

Do you have the DP and HFC installed?

Once you get the rest of your parts installed you might wanna consider a tune because after the tune you will have a lot more power all the way thru the power band. But if you do highway driving you will notice an increase in fuel economy now that the engine can breath better through both ends. Enjoy!
Can you do us a favour and weigh the old exhaust parts you removed. Just curious.

I won't be able to do that just yet...but I can say this for sure...stock is a lot HEAVIER! And after I get the u/l icp installed I will def get a tune...

I take it then from your response that you have already upgraded the Intercooler itself to a stock Evo X unit or better?

Nice dude! I'm debating on which exhaust system to get, I'm leaning more towards Borla since I've had their catback systems on every vehicle I've owned minus my last Subaru. I know they're a little pricey but well worth it from my past experience.
