Sparky Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Hi i was after some new back boxes for my new 2015 sti was looking at nameless but the back order is mad over a month waiting list and import charges are nearly the cost of the unit so been looking at custom ones has any one used mijexhausts there based in the midlands
savage bulldogs Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I think cobra sports are in Sheffield I'm fairly sure they make custom stuff too
Sparky Posted December 10, 2014 Author Posted December 10, 2014 Cheers mate i will have a look at cobra to.mij look like they make some good exhausts.i have seen some rubbish in my time powerflow are a joke ask them before about my gt4 ended up walking away there useless. I am still undesided on custom might just suck it up and get the nameless ones unless anyone else knows of some were in the Uk doing exhuasts for 2015 sti need to sort it soon i hate the sound of the car at the min its sounds crap
stants Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 I had a full system made for mine by cobra. As it's slightly different to the impreza it wasn't off the peg, dropped it at 9 in the morning by half 12 they had made a twin resonated middle and backbox from scratch along with fitting the downpipe [emoji16]
savage bulldogs Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 I've only ever bought one item of them to be honest a classic sports cat and I found it to be well made and a good fit. is it volume , tone or type of sound your after improving ?
Sparky Posted December 10, 2014 Author Posted December 10, 2014 Cheers guys it helps to know people have used them and are happy.in regards to sound all 3 have you been in the new sti when its being hammered it sound God awful you change gear early at times it hard to explain i had a 330d msport which sounded better then this i just hate the way it sounds need to change it asap want it to sound like a subaru should
savage bulldogs Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 I don't know much about the new sti's spec but has it got a equal length exhaust manifold? As they fitted equal length manifolds to a certain year of jdm blob eyes and they lost all of the "scooby burble" and sounded like a (normal) inline 4 cylinder set up. Cos it's the exhaust gasses hitting each other in the unequal headers that cause the burble not the flat 4 configuration [emoji6]
Sparky Posted December 10, 2014 Author Posted December 10, 2014 No i think they are unequal on the 2015 its just the exhaust on its rubbish
Gambit Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I know a really good play in Louth that do amazing custom work mainly do a lot of work with VW's but have worked with lots of other cars
Gambit Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I thought it was pretty good other than it is VW but they do loads :) To this
quit Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 my mate purchased the bits and made his own exhaust on his track 106 gti ! was quite simple if you can weld stainless
