Borla Hush!

The Borla Hush is relatively quiet w/all three cats.

I have an UP/DP + Borla Hush ( all catless ) and it has the perfect loudness. Not too loud and not quiet at all.

It sounds MEAN w/the UP/DP combo, any other catback w/UP/DP will just be too loud IMO.

I've heard GDB_Dragun's exhaust (retains all 3 cats) and it sounds about as loud as my borla hush+UP/DP ( all catless ).

Eric,

Where was your car at? And who do you know that owns a silver WRX around town? I saw Tom Castillo riding in the back of one of the freeway w/a bunch of Cal High folk.

DOODE, are you going to the Regal/Imax meet? post it up!

SORRY FOR THE HIJACK

I would definately get that Greddy evo. For $300 that's a good deal. Plus it fits your requirements perfectly. It has one of the deepest rumbles out there.

I absolutely love my Greddy Evo. It has the perfect rumble to it, and it looks great tucked up under the bumper. And for $300 you can't beat it. Go for it!

If money is not the question I would go with HKS. But for $300 get the greddy system, thats a great deal, but i would makre sure that it's in good condition before you buy it. That's a great price, but to me, it's almost too great, so make sure it's in good condition.

Watch for rust as the Greddy is NOT stainless steel!

blah, since when does ceramic rust? the piping's steel just coated in ceramic. The same thing can be applied to the hks hi power but nobody ever says anything about it. it's steel coated with some sort of black paint.

Nah don't worry. Lots of people have that perception of the Greddy. And I honestly don't know why Also, they've never had proof that it has rusted.
