  • @psychdoggg
    @psychdoggg 7 років тому +8

    I'm sure these sound way better in person. I've got a MAPerformance catted J-pipe, muffled catback, and their 4" intake and it sounds absolutely beautiful around 4k rpm. Best bet is to visit a car meet and hear them first-hand. I heard a guy's catless J-pipe paired to the N1 muffler delete, and while it was cool, it was way too loud for daily driving.

    • @TassieLorenzo
      @TassieLorenzo 7 років тому

      "I'm sure these sound way better in person." It's a four cylinder (which now sounds like a standard four-cylinder to boot, no UEL header novelty anymore) and a turbocharged one at that, can't expect miracles.

  • @TheRealSubieBoy17
    @TheRealSubieBoy17 7 років тому +13

    one other thing as well, the second clip, (black wrx with cobb exhaust) has an aftermarket J pipe to. that car is full stage 2. seen the vid on it before. it sounds good but that plays a big part in sound. so if you have a stock J pipe or whatever, you know it may be different than what you plan on doing.

    • @TheKUZ
      @TheKUZ 2 роки тому

      Just bought a brand new 2021 WRX.. I’m assuming I’m going to need a good intake, j pipe and turbo back or cat back exhaust to really hear that turbo spool at idle like I hear in a lot of these?

    • @fakete37s13
      @fakete37s13 7 років тому +5

      Mida Multitool Me too, but they chose the 2.0 in the WRX because of the low end torque and the incredibly fast turbo spool at low RPM, there is power all through the powerband, pretty much just a BRZ motor with some juice added

    • @FusterIsBased
      @FusterIsBased 7 років тому +48

      It's not the motor, it's just the headers. Older Subarus have a rumble because of unequal length headers. The new FA's require equal length headers to work with the twin scroll turbos Subaru decided to mate the engine with. Engineered Explained has a video detailing why UEL's produce rumble. Honestly though I've had a few friends with STI's switch from UEL's to EL's and the sound isn't really that different.

    • @scottis
      @scottis 6 років тому

      I've ridden in a friends 2015 wrx and for city driving it is so much fun. So much low end torque and compared to other newer cars with 2.0's (veloster, focus st, genesis, a4's/a5's, etc) it sounds good. If you get a nice catless dp with an exhaust it sounds so good.

    • @Sjvadala
      @Sjvadala 6 років тому

      I think it also has something to do with the firing order for the rumble. Not 100% positive but I'm pretty sure

      Tyler Savin I have it on my 08. It was quiet until WOT which is what I wanted. Now that the packing is pretty much gone it's loud AF. Sounds like a rally car. Then again I have header back exhaust and after market everything.

      Yea that's exactly why I like it. How long did it take to lose all the packing? Or did you pull it out?

      Tyler Savin I didn't remove it but after about a year I noticed it getting louder and droning. Now it's a beast on cold start.

      Wow really? I've had mine for over a year and don't notice any difference really. Sure you don't have a leak somewhere?

      Tyler Savin positive I don't have a leak. I've heard this from a few other people on the subie forums too. Not a big deal though.

      I actually thought it had one of the more interesting sounds though... like a laser or something, lol. If a laser had a sound.

    These cars just don't make sense anymore when you can get a 6.4l RT charger or challenger for the same price. If you have to have AWD you can also get a lightly used Jeep SRT for 30k. 4 cylinder motors are for sport bikes and the European Union
