YouTube - 2008 STi Launch and FlyBy

its 3" from the dp, to the magnaflow muffler, then its splits into 2 2.5s

Ha ! thats awesome. I might just look into a custom exhaust now. Good work!

I found a cheap flowmaster that works on 82-92 comaros for 125$ on ebay. After I install the maddad equal length headers and dp Im going this route. A thousand bucks is stupid money

Do you have a BOV on that?

Peleg · 07-06-2008, 02:44 PM

Does this car have engine management?

paikman · 07-06-2008, 03:09 PM

Why wouldn't you just buy the real complete magnaflow for $450 shipped and install it yourself?
hahaha

I was going to say that... they're not all $1000! Magnaflow's is well priced.

no, just AMR intake, good intake but I think they need to move the MAF closer to the inlet, so that its further away from the bend resulting in smoother flow to the MAF and more consistant MAF voltage.

Although I'm pretty pissed it doesnt come with launch control yet, we need people to ***** on their forums/email them and tell them to put launch control in it.

It comes with a mid-pipe, it's a full catback, and several (at least 10) members have ordered it the past week for $400-500 lol.
But I understand about it not being available

The link is in the other exhaust thread =)

It's ridiculous that these companies are trying to charge these crazy amounts for CBEs. This magnaflow setup is looking better and better.
