2010 WRX-S Cobra Exhaust

Hi everyone, today I fitted a Cobra cat-back non-resonated exhaust to my 2010 WRX-S. It was a real simple swap and completely changes the way the car sounds, IMO I think it now sounds as a Subaru should!

Yeah I'm very happy with it, guessing it gets slightly louder as the carbon builds up... which I wouldn't complain about!

Can't fault cobra, however I bought it through GNJ motorsport as it saved me £50 :biggrin:

Been looking at this exhaust for a while but wasn't sure how it would sound. it sounds great just what I'm after, first good video I have seen for one. I'm sold on it 

I would definitely recommend it - I was worried at first about it sounding too loud... but it doesn't and there is no drone on the motorway so it's perfect. 

Also extremely easy to fit, took about an hour

Great thanks that was the main thing holding me off and looking towards the resonated one but I couldn't get a vid to show how loud it was didn't wanna take the dive to find out one was ridiculously loud and the other no different to standard. Mine will need replacing this year anyway pipe is corrorded badly.

I can say the resonated one isn't overly loud and doesn't drone at motorway speeds, people tell me mine makes a nice note but never heard it myself.

I'll attach the go pro to the bumper and do a vud tomorrow morning for you

cant decide resonated vs non resonated cat back system, I was tempted to go up there and check out a sports cat replacement but I will see what the emissions result is and condition when it goes in for MOT next week

They have some comparison videos on the site, just not in the same video segment

Jay, my sports cat from them has struggled to pass before, not sure if they do a higher cel count cat now ?

ahhh I will raise that with them then if needs be - cant see the point if they dont work as they should do - particularly as it is not a cheap piece of kit. It wasnt for any performance gain as its an NA car but more for it being stainless steel (shiny object :Jumpy:)

Indeed,

when mines really hot it's OK,

Found receipt for my system the other day and nearly fell over, the quality of the workmanship is good and the whole process was easy, I went in on the morning and by dinner time they'd made the system from scratch 🖒

I had a sport cat from them on a 2l sport blob never had a problem with mot,that was 2 year ago.but maybe the older sports cats will struggle now with emission rules getting tighter.
