This current setup would probably sound good for most people. Has the subie rumble and is very much an exhaust you feel more than you hear. If you are cruising on the freeway or at steady throttle, you barely hear it. But as soon as you are WOT or accelerating aggressively, she gets fairly loud. Not racecar loud, but people around you will most likely turn to see what kind of car it is.

I am about to get a front pipe without a cat. If I were to do it over again, I think catless is the way to go in the header (more gains) and then stock front pipe or at least one that has a cat.

Curious, what tune are you using for the JDL catted UEL header? I'm been trying to refine an OFT tune to maximize the header's potential and I'm starting to hate my header...partly because the gas here sucks and the stage 2 tune maaaaaay be too aggressive for a catted header or I'm having hardware issues. I think I should've went cat-less to start.

I'm not currently running a tune so I'm missing out on a lot of potential gains. I will most likely be going the OFT route but haven't really looked into which tune I will run. Have you looked into picking an OTS tune then tweaking it yourself?

Oh yes I have one already and running a modified stg1 tune. Needs more work and fine tuning though.

Yups, same here my car is outside 24/7.
Best $400 I spent on the opticoat pro.
Washing the car is easy with opticoat.

Most of the mods I have are cosmetic - taillights, shark fins antenna, clear side markers, etc.

Performance wise:
- TRD catback
- OFT tune

I like the catback and felt some improvement. But it was the OFT Ecu flash which really made the car feel like _a car_.

Wish list:
- noise dampening (ccf, sound tiles)

Saving up for this and want to get started soon - this summer. This is a DD for me. The car is _not_ turning heads noisy. But wind, road noise, and the catback combine to make cabin too loud to have a conversation or hear the radio.

Favourite performance mod so far - Tomei UEL Header + OFT tune
Wish list - Harrop TVS Supercharger

Favourite cosmetic mod so far - Either Toms JDM taillights or FiveAxis Spoiler
Wish list - R505RR 18x8.5 wheels in dark grey ( I have 17x9 RPF1's in black at the moment)

Favourite Interior mod - TRD Shift knob
Wish List - Carbon dash replacement panels and JPM Coachworks gauge hood.

Seems mine are a bit different than what's been posted.

Likes:
1) OEM Audio+ Reference Series & Sound Dampening. Easily the most enjoyable mod and makes the biggest difference day to day.
2) Phantom Electric Supercharger
3) Backup Camera
4) Armrest
5) JPM Coachworks Knee pads and Dash Cover
6) Winjet with always on mod
7) JDM Frameless Mirror

Dislikes
1) CREE DRLs (removed and sold)
2) Injen Intake (removed and sold)
3) Downpipe (removed and sold)
4) Catback. Think I'm getting old but it is too loud even after I installed a resonator onto it.
