    Yoo i watched the enitre video and i thought it was from a big youtuber. Needless to say i was shocked when i saw 115 subs and 45 likes. You've got potential big man! Subbed

    Man that AWE touring exhaust sounds very aggressive and really good bro. I have a muffler deletes on my 2020 STI right now. Thats what it came with when i bought it last year. It nails the Subie rumble perfectly. A great video brother. Subies Forever.😊

      That’s great! I was surprised how much the stock mufflers holds back a lot of that aggressiveness and subie rumble

      @@STi_Alan Yeah that is very surprising about the stock exhaust. I was thinking about getting the Ark Grip exhaust or the AWE touring. Right now I might just chill because the muffler deletes I have on the Bluebaru sound awesome 😎. I need to get that 4th brake light @subiefest out here on the 23rd of July. I will be going, it's my first Subiefest. Like I said before, we are lucky to have the VA STIs brother. I turn 54 on July 13th this week. Subies forever. If you are ever out here in San Diego brother, look me up and me and the wife will go out to dinner with you. Subies forever brother. Great maintenance videos all the time. Oh yeah. Take care.

    Nice work on the video. I have the same exhaust just with the black tips. It's the best sounding exhaust that can get loud when you get on the gas while on the highway or stay quiet when cruising in the neighborhood. 👍

    I have an sti too and I'm looking to buy this exhaust as well. My question is on a scale of 1-10 how loud would you say this exhaust is? 10 being it hurts your ears.

    • @STi_Alan
      @STi_Alan  Рік тому +1

      I'd say if the stock exhaust is a 5, this exhaust is about a 7 in loudness, not too loud but definitely a noticeable difference. The main benefit I've noticed about this exhaust is the deeper richer tone and you also get a few cool pops on downshifts!

      If you stand next to it during a cold start it is borderline hurt you ears loud. I tested with a decibel meter and got between 106-108 dba on coldstarts from 19 in away. I saw up to 113 dba reving it and getting some pops. The exhaust sounds great but it is one of the louder systems on the sti. This is because it does not use mufflers. The midpipe has a resonator and the two back pieces that looks like mufflers are actually both resonators. You basically get muffler delete volume without the drone.

    Do you need a tune for the exhaust? I am new to mods and tune.

    • @STi_Alan
      @STi_Alan  11 місяців тому

      For a cat-back or axle-back exhaust you won't need a tune but once you start changing exhaust parts past the catalytic converter (ex.turbo-backs) you typically need a tune if you want to do it properly
