To those always asking about exhaust fab..

I'm in the middle of doing my clutch job so I had to take my full exhaust off. First time having it off since March. Anyways I bought a muffler and a downpipe. Installed the dp alone then took it to Performance Exhaust in Fremont.

What I got out of this was a custom 3'' midpipe to fill the gap. For the piping, flanges, hardware, gaskets, dp o2 extension, muffler hanger relocation and labor it cost $250. The system fits perfectly on the car and I've had no complaints about it since it was put on. Sounds great too! I will be more if you want a resonator or if you have a WRX cause the midpipe is a bit longer than on my RS. Just lettin you guys know what kind of a job these guys do cause I'm sure a lot of people want stuff like this or very similar done to their car.

Cool cool.

I have a JGT500 for a WRX that I would like to have modded to fit my "L". Think these guys can do it?

What do you think was the most expensive part of your exhaust? Probably the custom midpipe?

I just want to get an idea how much this will run me. I'll definitely need to do the hanger, flanges, and I think I'll need a 4" extension to make the catback longer in order to fit.

Actually my dp was the most expensive part, but not by much only ten bucks more.

I would just stop by there, they can put your car on the lift and then take a look and give you an estimate.

Yeah. I'll give them a call. I am actually in Davis right now, but I figure they can make it all fit, and then I can get it in and out of the way.

I have a stock one right now, but I want to get on the Espelir JGT500, which is currently sitting in my garage.

I gave these guys a call today. Hopefully, I can come by their place and have them give me an estimate on how much it'll cost to modify the WRX to my Impreza L.
