Does the SRT exhaust come with collar clamps to keep the exhaust system from moving on the hangers?

No, but you can use some heat shrink tubing on the hangars to get the thickness back. Mine doesn't move at all.

I have an SRT cat-back. However, I am probably going to ditch it for something else in the near future. I love the look of it, and the way it sounds under WOT. However, there are a couple of issues that make it a pain to live with:

1. Horrible drone between 2.5 and 3.5 RPM. Right where you would be while cruising on the highway.
2. Poor fitment. The tips do not line up, no matter how you try to adjust the various parts. The closest I can get to even stresses the hanger on the rear-mid-pipe to unacceptable levels. It seems they just rushed these out after going radio silent for a few months.

3. Hangs a little low (I live in NY and i have to run 18" wheels to keep it from scraping constantly)







on another note, has anyone ran them with headers as well? Please share your thoughts if you have.



I'm highly considering running them with catted P&L headers, but am very concerned if it will get too loud for my taste

Been there, done that but I have the P&L over pipe and the catless front pipe. It was stupid loud until I added another resonator which helped only a little bit.

I had the same problems as the previous poster and went with the full P&L.

Here's a video by subaruwrxfan that was uploaded today, of his SRT header back exhaust.

Anyone have any issues with cops with the SRT header back exhaust?

Zero issues with cops with mine. It is only loud on cold starts - and it is f**** stupid loud then. Good thing I park it in winter

Got my Raven FR-S September 2012 and i now have 60k+ miles... Got my SRT exhaust i believe March 2013. I live in NY and drive through all of the boroughs all the time with 35% Tints on the front windows, 20% on the back, and I don't run with a front license plate.

With that said, I've gotten a ticket once and I have a summons I have to attend this april. So in my opinion, considering how much I've been driving and how shady my car looks to cops, It's not really bad to the point where you would get pulled over for it all the time...


Just don't high-rev close to the cops of course...

I ordered the header back exhaust in late January, but have not yet received it. I am not worried about a thing though, as odd as it sounds. Forthwith with explication.

I ordered the SRT intake w/race ecu, the most excellent subframe braces, and the one and only 3" catback exhaust, (which was paired to the superior yet berserk Mazzuri 2 headers, thought I'd share since I'm already taking the is300 whore train to penicillin town).

Took me approximately 15 weeks to receive the stuff. Was it worth it? Totally.
