I just installed a Thermal Dynamics catback with a giant Helmholtz chamber, and it fit. Granted the Helmholtz is closer to the driveshaft than I'd like, but I dont think it'll be a problem.

Yes I was asking more for how it would sound not fitment, sorry should have specified

Boo, the Xforce doesn't fit. The muffler/midpipe flange contacts the new aero panels under the rear bumper. Otherwise would fit perfectly. Oh well!

edit: Just about any exhaust with the flange at one side like the Tanabe medallion, Nameless catback, etc. probably won't fit now without cutting up the underbody plastics.

Pics? My exhaust connects on the left side of the muffler. Fit fine.

Edit, you made me paranoid so I went out and checked mine. Tons of clearance above the muffler (heat shield area) and to the left/right of the flanges. So i'm not sure where you're having an issue. A pic would be greatly appreciated.

Will do tomorrow when it's light out. Wonder if it's an xforce specific issue, but no way was it going to fit.

So the contact was the plastic piece with the two square holes in it. You can see how an exhaust with the flange off to the side could contact it, especially if the flange sits wider than the outlet pipe.

I've gone ahead and ordered a Perrin 2.5" resonated exhaust, it will take a while to get here sadly as they're not in stock.

Oh interesting. Mine does not come out nearly that far.

I don't see one on either arm.

Does anyone know if the 22 BRZ OEM exhaust will fit on 2019 86? I'm trying to swap my friend's HKS SPEC-L catback onto my new 22 BRZ and put my OEM one onto his 86.

Could anyone confirm this?

It SHOULD fit, but nobody will know for sure until someone does it.

StratifiedAuto does it in this video. I have subscribed waiting for the best header, catback, and tune. Great stuff!

azndavepgh · 12-21-2021, 10:28 PM

Can anyone recommend an exhaust that's louder than stock but still relatively quiet?

Perrin 2.5" catback
