    That is a good price!

    Are there any 2008 WRX Sedan owners on here yet? Has Subaru even sold one?

    Yeah, I agree. I would go for the Cobb system, quad tips and a straighter flow. It will cost less after this intro price goes away on the SPT system(or it should).

    Custom exhaust FTW, I say. Mine is essentially the same thing...maybe even a straighter flow. And it was $200 less. Also I got pretty much exactly what I wanted soundwise.

    That is a great price though considering it's a subaru branded product. Also the 2008s are getting insane gains in power from a larger diameter catback. 31 lb/ft?! And that's for a 2.5 inch exhaust! Mine's a 3". :banana: I must be pushing over 300 at the wheels by now. :rofl:

    Probably not, because the 5 door is more practical and looks waaaaay sweeter. Dude. Bro.

    I was about to state my amazement of the hp/torque gains from simply putting on a different catback.

    I doubt you got 300+ from a catback considering an sti with a full exhaust doesn't have 300 whp

    I think he was talking about torque.

    I can't believe anyone took that seriously. :eek3:

    I was completely joking. But I wouldn't doubt some notable gain from it. The car does pull noticeably harder.
