ARK GRiP catback + Borla UEL header
Got the ARK GRiP catback yesterday and combined with the Borla headers, I've created a monster! Sound is deep and rumble is pronounced but drone is very minimal. Really only notice it under load in sixth gear.
Here is a link to my video: [ame]http://youtu.be/RK62XR_iK1E[/ame] |

Wtf, your steering wheel is on the wrong side!!!
Kidding of course, I'm jealous of your setup.

Took a while to bite the bullet and get a GRiP (hur hur), but couldn't be happier with the result. It is now starting to mellow out nicely, far less metallic sound, more rumble

How is the noise inside the cabin? Is it loud as it sounds outside?

Videos like this really gives me hope that if I add an UEL Header to my current cat back setup, I will not end up having a drone central cabin. Kudos for making this video!

Noise in cabin is on par with most modded WRX's I have driven in, quite reasonable with minimal drone but a noticeable rumble. Only really thumps the ear on high load high gear (eg accelerate in 6th at 80km/h)
I am pretty discerning when it comes to cabin noise so two thumbs up here

Got to be careful which catback you choose. Has to be at the quieter end in order to work |
