Hi all
Just looking at picking up some second hand STI cans for my 3.0R-B, however I noticed that the turbo and non-turbo models have different part numbers. Do anyone know what the difference is?
Thanks,
Chris

They never made STi 3.0 did they?
Are you sure you are not mistaking it for Sedan and Wagon mufflers....

It was a genuine question, stop nitpicking every single post I make. We all get it, you don't like me...that's great.

I guess with version 3, they've distinguished the N/A and turbo versions, which would make sense because N/A's need smaller diameter piping than the turbo otherwise they lose low end power. Mind that's just pure speculation as I don't know much about the new STi mufflers now available.

New STi mufflers available? I think he was referring to the Gen IV ones not GenV (if that's what you meant Jim).
As Jim pointed out above, the different diameter piping is where it's at. The STi cans I have actually drone at about 1600RPM (not sure if it's drone, but it hits this certain frequency that just makes everything including my ear drums rattle and vibrate. It's almost unbearable (it's probably why I got EPA'd a year or so ago). But it's only at that RPM, other than that they're sweet.
I know on my car (2.5i) they are definitely louder than the stock cans, not by too much though.

Funny, you seem to be the only one who consistently does it.
Time for you to get over it maybe?
And I'll add that I agree I post a lot of crap.
