Did you do the axleback or the high flow cat as well? Was thinking of getting both when my truck sells. Do you like it?

There's quite a few reasons why I am choosing Nameless for my full exhaust:

1) They share every detail about what they did with the exhaust and why
2) Quality and craftsmanship is outstanding. The Axleback is a piece of art. It is also very light as well.
3) Beautiful sound, many sound options too with a Hemholtz resonator as one, catted versus catless on the OP/DP.
4) Jason and Ryan are great to work with. They address any questions or concerns and give you honest recommendations based on your build.
5) They're very passionate about their work and extremely knowledgeable with many aspects of our cars and other Subaru's.
6) Nothing better than supporting a small exhaust shop built in the USA!
7) Watching their development threads and the R&D they do is very intriguing.

These are my reasons why I fully support Nameless and their products.

I've got the axleback along with the overpipe/downpipe/high flow cat combo (w/ helmholtz resonator). Love it.

Got a sound clip of how that sounds? Was looking into that myself but wasn't entirely sure

My favorite exhaust option right now is the Strömung axle-back. The tone is perfect without being too loud. I'm running an Airaid intake with it, but I wouldn't do that without a tune (my Airaid bogs without the tune).

I was wondering what are the benefits of getting a tune? If I don't drive aggressively and just want more sound, is it ok for me to just slap on an intake and call it a day? Sorry I'm pretty noob with cars lol...

Go with exhaust and a tune, or just exhaust by itself. Don't waste your money on an intake, they are just marketing. For the money there are far better mods you can do.

I'd just go exhaust. Presently a flash tune at $900.00 + shipping tests the limit what I might be willing to pay for the result gains despite the testimonials.

You're going to get a much larger gain from a reflash than you will from an exhaust.

Tsudo Exhaust sounds amazing (no drone on highway and not stupid loud) and replaces the stock cat with a high flow cat as well. For the price I can't believe more people don't know about it (http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?p=672618) ~450

And for intake I remember a thread saying Injen's gave the best returns on the dyno. ~260

Use the extra money and buy yourself something nice.

The OP has indicated he is looking for better sound, not the extra few HP.
