    That's pricey, and when it comes time to replace that cat you either replace the entire thing again or chop it. You may want to look into getting a header and one of those "hi-flow" cats that bolt on.

    C i want sumtin semi big and that sounds clean. Magnaflow sounds kind of like a muscle car (well to me) and i want a tuner sound. Idk wer to look, and i was wondering how hard it would b to install it myself?

    you're focusing on the wrong end of the exhaust if you want a louder sound. start with the cat back section of the exhaust especially the muffer. getting full headers will make the car louder but will also introduce raspiness.

    Well you did say it yourself. Get a magnaflow muffler and have it welded on or get a bolt on. Dont worry about the muscle cars, we lack 4 cylinders so th sound you will get is gonna be a deep hum type.

    My opinion on this is get a nice catback muffler such as: magnaflow or megan. Its not going to gain you any power, but the engine will breathe better. If you want any HP gain you will have to tune the computer. Magnaflow is a good muffler and it has a deep sound to it. good luck with the MOD.

    Installing any aftermarket manifold will make your car loud. Just like what they said just buy magnaflow exhaust they only $100-$130 online plus the $60 welding fee, you save $250 and you will have a nice exhaust sound. If you have 4 cylinder engine get the magnaflow street series or if you have v6 go with the magnaflow race series.

    If you modified your OEM air intake you will have much better sound specialy for v6 galant.

    the 3G eclipse and the USDM 8G are essentially the same car (except for 2 doors and about 10"). plenty of TGC members have used these mufflers with great results.

    as far as cat back, there are a few now made for the USDM 8G and pretty much any 3G eclipse cat back can be lengthened to use on our platform. additionally, one can b custom made at any reputable exhaust shop.

    if u r just after a better sound/tone, then yeah, just get a performance muffler... keep in mind that a muffler upgrade alone will not increase power much if at all. to get the most performance out of your exhaust you would need a "full" replacement, like what you mentioned in your original post. that involves headers and full mandrel bent catback meaning basically, all the exhaust piping from your engine block to the exhaust tip(s) would be replaced with larger diameter mandrel bent piping, typically removing your catalytic converters and resonators... that type of system, although much more free flowing than stock, is also very loud.

    And yes i did check out the verex exhaust but it seemed like even with that souped up impreza wen the muffler was opened it sounded like a fart can. In my opinion
