Default Mods advice

Hey Guys,

Newbie on subies

for the Cobb access port i need the stage2 file if I'm getting a Catback exhaust correct?

Also looking at these exhaust..

1.) SPT exhaust compatible with sti? just saw it on the accessories list at the dealer they are very cheap..

2.) I like the sound of the Harman motive but looking at the site they use Magnaflow mufflers? isnt it cheaper to customize?

also any recommendation on exhaust that gives a tubi/ferrari sound is my preference

No problem and thanks for the compliment on the Vette.

I can't believe you got rid of a C6 Z for an 08 STI.

Imo, there is no better sounding motor that a Ferrari V8. With that said, good luck on finding an exhaust that makes a turbo flat 4 sound like a hi revving NA V8.
