go down to home depot buy some washers that fit the bolts you may spend 2 bucks, its helped me a lot on deciding on what sound i want because i get to hear what the car sounds like at each rpm every day and it helps me figure out how i want to tweak it

but in the end i dont think i want to change it at all and just add an exit without a muffler, its to each's own, i like it, you may not
@lopro25 liked it and hes got an aftermarket exhaust

all you guys need to do is hit up a muffler shop have them unbolt your muffler and create a turn down pipe slanting to the floor in an inconsipicuous angle and for like $30 bucks you got your self a clean ass muffler delete thats completely stealth since your mufflers are still there and imo sounds better than 70% of the exhausts out right now if your looking for a slight rumble.

allows some air to escape the exhaust system, in reality its just a really big exhaust leak lol... im still up in the air on what exhaust i want but needed some exhaust sound in my life so that is my temp fix till i decide

personally i like the way it sounds, i may just buy the single exit w/ exhaust tip for $150, it does drone though because the noise comes out behind the bumper but its not as loud as my last car so i dont really mind

On the Legacy GT forums this is called a "Hogzaust".

I tried the "hogzaust" today...I thought it sounded pretty good, bumper get didn't hot at all. I'm going to go to my buddies muffler shop this week and get a quote on a dual exit straight pipe though.

Update muffler delete is the best way to make power and you remove the most weight
