Borla Hush Or Greddy Evo2
I have been torn between these two exhausts. I currently am running the evo2 I love the sound but I am kinda worried about being pulled over because I am heavily moded...should I get a hush which is more "stealthy" in appearance or should I just stick with the evo? Also would I need a retune if I do chose to change to a borla?

The Evo is louder than the cop, but the cop shouldn't even give you a second look because it's not very loud. I had the Greddy Evo 2 and I drove by multiple cops and didn't even get one look. I then got the hush, and I think the Hush stg. 2 is about the same sound as Evo 2 stg. 0.

true stealth = MadDad dual tip Whisper
all are relatively quiet from what I understand - the only problem with the EVO (from a stealth point of view) is that it's shaped like your average fart can. Both the MadDad Whisper and Borla Hush are more stealthy in appearance (i.e. look more stock / OEM). You can also paint the muffler portion flat black for ultimate stealth!
I have the whisper and couldn't be happier (and no tickets or even sideways glances from cops!)

Car Info: 03' Subaru Impreza WRX - R.I.P.
Before you decide which exhaust to go for based on everyone's opinion, it would be a good idea to listen to them yourself. Have a friend do a couple WOT pulls in a tunnel or freeway underpass with you as a passenger and windows rolled down. I happen to own both the greddy evo2 and the borla hush at some point in my life. After I switched from the greddy to the borla, both sound great while cruising on the freeway and idling. However, at WOT is where I really noticed the difference - I really enjoyed the greddy "growl" a lot better than the borla hush at WOT, which sounded "scratchy howl". Imho, since the sound was awesome, I would have kept the greddy on my old 03' WRX if if wasnt for the fact that I drove around paranoid with a huge tip all the time.
