I got a 2" exhaust, cost me $300 dollars. Car does go better and now it sounds like a wrx, totally sweet.

is it just 2'' straight through with a muffler?
where did you get it done?
how much power does it give it?

Mine was low $200's with a cannon tip. That is from the cat back. Could feel a little power but its not enough to make you go WOW!

Yeah 2" is the biggest you would wanna go. Any bigger is just a waste of pipe

hey mate, I've got one you can have for nothing if you want to pick it up. It's been sitting for a couple of years, but it should still be good.

If he doesn't want it, I would be happy to rid you of the nuisance OLD exhaust.

has anyone got a pic of a cannon on a brumby by chance? mainly want to see how much clearance there is.

Don't have any clear pictures, but mine has about an inch or so. But in theory you should be able to get them to set it as you like. Just need new rubbers.

2 inch pipe fits good with the space in the Brumby? no lifting needed?

would it be better to just get a new 2 or 3'' exhaust tip and keep the exhaust i've got? my pipe now is about 1 3/4 inches kind of sounds aftermarket so will a new tip make like a wrx/liberty etc.
I mainly want the sound but if a full sports exhaust doesn't cost much more would i be better off getting that?

You won't get the $$$ you spend in performance. In fact basically you'll probably only get what new rotor, cap leads and plugs would give you in performance. If you have a cat converter keep it and just go cat back. Or if you really are just looking for the note, get a 2" turbo style muffler which looks like this on the inside. Fat cans, I mean connons give a different note, but not a wrx sound.
