- Follow me as I install an exhaust system on my 2003 “bug eye” Subaru Impreza WRX. The old system was hacked, rusted, and choking back horsepower. Watch what the new system I bought from ebay does for my subie!

I watch at least 1 or 2 of your videos every evening. One of my favorite CZcams channels! Keep up the great work! What I love most about your videos is that you show all of the difficulties you have and how to fix them. A lot of other channels guys will just leave those parts out. So it looks like a trouble free install. As you know that's not real life.
No questions this time Brian, thanks for uploading.
If you like it, that is all that matters. Enjoy your new exhaust bro!
Great video keep up the good work I love watching your videos I've learned a lot from you and just wanted to say thank you. I live up in Alaska and I have been working on the lot of Subarus up here and I do watch your videos and you've help me out a lot
Iv got the 03 Subaru Impreza wrx turbo an I watch your videos there very informative an have got me threw alot with the wrx I have my old plates im from mississippi an I'ma try to get them in the mail soon as possible thx for the great videos
Long time fan. Just wanted to say that I enjoy your videos! Keep up the great work and God bless! 👍🏼
Thank you Gene! Great to hear from you!
LOL, those memes. Sounds great and the look on your face says it all. I just replaced my exhaust. Good thing it fit perfectly because I could never have made those weld mods.
I just replaced my muffler and resonator last weekend. I hate exhaust work. Yours sounds awesome, Brian! Nice, deep sound.
Nice job again Brian....nothing quite like the sound (and improved fuel economy) of a new muffler system.
Looks a lot better and sounds great. . My daughter just bought a new WRX . Looks pretty awesome under the hood. Access to maintenance it fantastic.
I love it Brian! So shiny! I'm not half way through the video yet, but I couldn't hold back anymore. It LOOKS awesome. Looking forward to hearing it.
Seconds after my comment. Oh ho ho ho! Nice sound!
Great video and tips. Found your vid while looking at replacement exhausts for my 09 Forester turbo.
your reaction and face while driving are the same I got when I put the borla hush on my 05. the mixture of glee and just vague embarrassment for your own joy. great video
To fix bad fit in the rubber holders you can put 1.5 inch piece of silicon hose on the brackets.
Silicon hose can withstand the temperatures and it makes a snug fit. Just make sure you have the hose not all the way, so that there is a bulge at the end.
Fun to see you excited about your own car!
Someone's caught the subie mod bug..enjoy your new exhaust!
I'm a total fan of ebay turboback on Subarus. They are most than proven to work.
Brian you'll provably have some issues on those welded clips, because this does not have the oval/spring joint, but they don't really help that much, because these aftermarket exhausts are so light.
Great mod!
Loved the picture in picture inserts. It sounds good.
Sounds great Brian! Enjoy it!
subaruwrxfan review his car now
A trick : watch movies at Flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Franklin Maddox Yea, been using Flixzone} for years myself :)
That sounds pretty sweet.
I'll believe it when I hear it in person! hahaha!
that actually sounds awsome
great video Brian! I havent forgotten about you! I'm still packing up a goody box for you since you sent me those roll pin punches!
Have you had a chance to use them yet? Glad to hear you got'em!
I got to use them on a roll pin on the power tilt/trim system of an outboard motor at school, as well as a crankcase locating pin on a Johnson 150 I'm rebuilding for a class project. Worked like a charm!
sounds good, when's the last time the timing belt was done. I'd be scared of high rpms if it's old.
I'm exhausted just watching!
Sounds great!!!
Vorticies? That's a new one on my and I've been doing exhaust since my teens. I'm now 69 and gonna have to look that one up. Great vid as always from The B...coolest guy on CZcams.
how much is labor to change the whole exhaust system from downpipe back
I'm sorry, but is that crinkle red paint on a muffler tip? It pairs well with the "Stevie Wonder Special" welds on the axle back, good god! What an improvement.
Do you plan on investing in an accessport and reflashing? Can easily find a used AP V2 on the subaru forums (nasioc).
Hey brians! regards from Chile!
You got all the turbo bolts out, you have no idea what rust is like, lol. If you get one out in New England without it breaking, you are having a great day.
Hi Brian, Love your channel, and I been following you for a while now that I have a Subie. could you link the exhaust system you used for this project?
Nice welds too. Cheaper than new-car payments. Good work.
Nice, new exhausts are awesome! On the rubber hanger, I think that zip tie won't hold up to the heat. I think I would have used stainless wire.
Ha! Thats great for a cheap eBay exhaust. Sounds pretty good, way better than the cobbled up mess from before.
You should pick up the Kartboy exhaust bushing! It's made out of polyurethane so it stays rock solid, and only costs $8 on eBay!
hi i have been following some of your youtube vids, i have a 2003 GDB V8 Subaru wrx Sti. I did abit of research online and people had abit to say about installing a new exhaust. Is it safe for to me to put a new cat back exhaust with a catted down pipe OR straight downpipe without having the car tuned.Most say the cattless downpipe, a BOV and aftermarket air intake requires a tune. Whats your opinion on the matter.
i know its an old video but how did you end up going with the car after adding the exhaust, did you get a tune. i had one a long time ago that i put a full turbo back exhaust on but after that i got it tuned straight away. without a tune it was getting massive amounts of boost creep. i watched the boost gauge rise to nearly 20psi from the stock 14 just on the drive to the dyno. i recently got back into subarus and into a bugeye wagon and im looking to do the exhaust again. i think im gonna get it tuned straight away again lol. also i got an auto this time around and i love it more then the manual.
man I was so excited at the end....then reality set in...sigh. Soon!
Do I need tune to run exaust system08wrxcatback system?
Do you have the link to the parts by any chance?
Dang it....I was getting kinda pumped towards the end...soon.
what seller did you buy from? can u provide a link
Good Job!
Sounds beautiful
Thanks Joel
I’m wondering if anyone could help me out... I have a 1993 Subaru WRX that has been straight piped by the previous owner, anyways I’ve got to take it off so I can put the stock one on, I have the back half of the exhaust, I need a downpipe and the cat pipe. Does anyone know where I could possibly find them? I just need something to get it through an inspection, I’ve been told they have them on eBay but I’m just wondering if that’s a good idea
Hi Brian, I've noticed a reduction in the frequency of your posted videos... is this your doing or is CZcams messing with us? I've checked to make sure my notifications are turned on and they are... what else can I do? Been missing your vids!! Yikes!
Are you keeping the good part of the pipe - maybe useful for another job ????
Fence post exhaust, that's a new one for me
The zip tie will only last until it burns threw . What a minute or two .
You have a WRx wagon right? But it is automatic??
Sweet video! Curious how you selected the eBay exhaust - What do you look for? And cost? It looks really nice. Thanks!
P.S. I dig the zip tie tip to hold the exhaust hangers in those loose bushings!
Is this with or without cat?
Sounds nice but it roars a little bit too load lol :D But that's the way it is. On turbo car the more free flow you have, it is better for improvement. Resonators and exhaust balance is needed on n/a car.
The old didn't sound that bad - I was surprised - sure didn't look good at all
Nice ron paul poster
I don't know the old red tail pipe was bitching! 😂😂!
Looks sweet (for now) lol
that first one sounded like a claped out volkwagon beetle without eny life left in it , i hear them a lot.... hate them ! the new one was a bit , well its loud but sounds freakin good !!
Do you have the eBay link?
Hey bro would this wrx turbo back exhaust bolt on to a 20Subaru Forester GT SF I live in Australia please h drop me out bro as I just brought a 2001Subaru Forester GT SF
Not sure. Likely to fit the body, but may require adapting to fit the cat.
link to the product?
just curious what you used to tune the exhaust or did you end up adding a cat to the exhaust?
I added a catalytic converter to it.
Is that an automatic?
Would’ve loved the downpipe. Three years after lol
Brian! Where are your safety glasses?!
Ron Paul 2:01!! This is nice, but I could do this to mine without a lift?
Stay tuned dude....soon.
Of course, but with video taping, the lift may have saved him hours in changing angles and working around the camera...I know. I've shot from the ground on some projects where I worked on the exhaust a bit too. If you're used to working from the ground, your muscles will be trained for it...if you're used to being under a lift, the opposite happens to your muscle development.
Honda owners be like 6:44
jk.. I love you Brian
boxer engine always sounds good through a wide exhaust, pity your neighbours though!
LOL. I did the same to my neighbors for a while. The thing is... as the exhaust gets carboned up over a few years it'll quiet down . . . . some. :)
...I laughed out loud when I heard you say "douche bag". Haven't heard that for awhile :-)
How do I become a amazon affiliate
Hope you got the right tune for no cats sounds great though!
Thanks Andrew!
Subies are the business
Anyone know the setup
0:15 those band aids
the bellmouth on the new one will get full of carbon, etc and fill those gaps. it has miles better flow compared to the OEM, but with that said, your back pressure will change, and you will need to put a cobb stage 2 or open source tune on it. flex joint is a nice touch. use rubber strap hangers or aftermarket hangers to fine tune the exhaust angle. new mounts will keep the pipes from rattling on the frame, etc when going over bumps. again, it's catless, so tuning is a must! check your AFR's, EGT's etc and make sure everything is correct, otherwise you'll have a dead engine with a new exhaust. :)
Gotta have some fun.....
BRIAN GOT A FART CAN ON HIS SUBIE!
It looks blinged out like a fart can, but it's a glass pack.
$300 great deal, with catalyst?
Wow that exhaust was a wreck, lol.
I know how you feel about the sound... I want to put a performance exhaust on my 4Runner (It's one of the sweet V8 models) just so I can hear it purr a little louder, but I definitely don't want to be a douche bag either...
They allow you to keep old plates? Where I live, you don't own the plates. The state does. You either keep paying, or you have to return it to the state.
Wtf....what commie state do you live in? When you pay for something it's supposed to be yours. You shouldn't have to keep paying to keep it.... unless it's your house of course!
Where do you live? We have to pay $11 for ours.
Nevada
now you need a tune
Sounds bad now! niceeeee
Does "good back pressure" from resonators even exist on a turbo car? I always heard the ideal set up is as short and unobstructed exhaust as possible
Auto trans huh?
That's cool and all but that's not our normal plate here.
You need engine management/tune to get the most out of it and for the longevity of the car.
I think it's time to replace your purple window tint lol
Was it loud or noisy - very sloppy fix for whoever did it
aahahahahaha i did the same fence post thing on my grand prix last year =*))))
Let's see what it looks like in 24 months
For sure. One thing along those lines is the ground clearance. I lost about 36mm of clearance. I've hit it a few times already in testing off road. (the pipe near the back, not the muffler)
Haha.. Oh well.. Old Japanese car, whatcha gonna do.
Time for a lift??!!
I am SO TEMPTED- now more than ever. I want to do a 2" reciever on the back to haul the paramotor on. I lift would help with that too.
I found the other guy with a 6inch lift on his subie: instagram.com/subygl/
Automatic WRX?
Asiamies i know right WRx wagon
BRUUUUP..SHPPPPSH..BRUUUUP..SHPPPPSH!
:)
Back pressure isn’t needed on a turbocharged car, just N/A engines need it
NA doesn't need it, either. It literally chokes the engine. A consistent diameter pipe with limited restriction (no louvered resonators or mufflers, no chambered mufflers, etc.) is best for BOTH turbo and NA.
Bruuuuh!
is it car auto or manual?
this car*
ohyahlinkinpark4life It's a Automatic.
Why not buy local and support those business's.
Subaru is the best
It is for what I use if for!
oh that sounds great, but its up to you whether you wanna drive it like a 16 year old. Thats how they get annoying
I can see why I payed over 1000 bucks for my invidia turbo back lol.
Want a cookie?
would be even louder if there was no cat
Automatic ? 😒
Yeah, it's not as fun, but it is more reliable when other people drive it.
