Anyone got a used one or a source for a reasonably priced one in the UK? |

The only one I have seen for sale is the one by CYBOX who trade on e bay and they are a complete system from the turbo onward and is a decat system (do away with the cat converter ) they used to be 350 quid but now are selling for 406 quid , sounds expensive but they are a top quality item . |

Think i've just seen the one you mean Tony, but priced at £487 plus postage.
Animal mother, i've had two cat back stainless systems made and fitted while i waited on Subarus at https://www.mijexhaust.com/ Walsall.
Very well made had no issues with either, both cost me just under £300 all incl, these were 2.25" systems, a 3" would probably be more expensive, last one fitted last spring.
The chap in charge at MIJ knows his stuff, he might well suggest a slightly smaller bore than you have in mind due to less restrictive stainless silencers and noise/boom issues with the larger bores, if you decide to call them.
To put prices in perspective, other stainless outlets quoted me over twice the price so i don't know how MIJ do it for that cost, hence don't mind the 75 mile drive there (i always give the lads that do the donkey work a drink cos old school innit)...OE system for my Outback would have been a 4 figure sum so didn't bother asking Subaru for a sit down or faint quote for the Forester, to make matters worse you can't get a proper aftermarket system anywhere for the two Subaru models concerned, in the case of the Outback one of the silencers has a clever built in pressure regulated by-pass system, in the case of the Forester no one makes one for the 2.5 turbocharged model at all, they are a smaller bore system suitable for the 2.0 NA engine falsely sold as suitable for 2.5 turbo version.
I recommend MIJ who are now my go to for exhausts, i have no interest in the company apart from being a satisfied customer. |
