Anyone have one on a wrx?? I'm looking into somthing alittle quieter then the blitz.. It may be time to go for my old friend.. AKA Mr Fixit Ticket.

You running the Nurspec Racing or Touring? It's quite a bit quieter than the Racing (although what isn't :mrgreen: ) and about right on par with the touring.

Racing, I'm not going to spend another 700 bucks for an exhaust. the borla is 3inch, no resonater.. Even though I love my blitz, and would probably want the touring, i cant see myself spending that much money.

Info:

Anyone looking into getting one of these, its just about the same DB as the Nurspec.. maybe just a tad to loud. Dave over at Oakos says its to loud.. im going with the hush.

a 3 foot exhaust seems kinda excessive to me.

well the bigger the better, right?

the hush has a nice rumble to it IMO but it is too quiet for some, especially if you're coming from the nur spec. why dont you put the stocker on and get the ticket taken care of, then just swap back? :)

I agree, swap back to stock for the ticket inspection.

3 foot exhaust? holy moses. I have the silencer in now.. thats no problem. Truthfully im kinda getting tired of the loud arse exhaust, and having to swap the silencer in and out. I dont want somthing too quiet but on the other hand dont want somthing too loud with the melon shooter tip. I want somthing 3' with mellow tone dual tip.

People tend to cover their ears when im in a tunnel, especially when I'm in a low gear.. LOLLOL ERRKDFL that ish is funny.

How much do you want for it?

3' = three foot.
3" = three inches.

thats what we were joking about...

its 2.5" but sometime in the near future my turboxs stealthback and prodrive oval tip muffler will be for sale if you're interested. its a nice refined sounding setup.

Prodrive for the win. It is the bestest exhaust. Ask Criz how my wagon sounds.
