Postby stefan9155 » Thu Aug 27, 2009 6:03 pm

Hey again guys,
Wondering how cheap i can get an exhaust system that would give my liberty the WRX sound or similar.It's the 2.0L 2004 MY05 Safetypack sedan. I'm currently in Melbourne, near Tullamarine. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can't get the "WRX sound" with a Liberty, because it has even length headers. The WRX has uneven length headers, which give the "throb".
Have a look through this topic for some other ideas. viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2382

Didn't some of the Legacy owners get a similar sound by putting some washers between the flanges of the exhaust and the centre pipe? Apparently the noise of an exhaust leak is close to 'burble'. :D

Ah, well to be honest i can't even remember what Wrx's sound like lol, I've just had like every second mate tell me that i should get a system to make it sound like a rexy :P
I just wanna know the cheapest way to get some sort of aggresive/rumbling sound and a link of some options would be alright. I've looked at the youtube links, i wouldnt mind any of those sounds :)

cheapest way is to put some washers in the flange before the mufflers, cant remember what it is called (there is a name for it) but it is on youtube. dont know how effective it is but (or the consiquences of having an exhaust leak)

You wont get the Rexy sound from a Liberty, You will get the Boxer engine but not the burble it brings. Might be time to grab a WRX? :S

Saw this on ebay
Would it make much of a sound difference?
