Rally Armour Flaps and a nice Prodrive round tip axleback. The prodrive is used but OMG is it in great shape and for the money $200 under new average cost it was a sweet deal.

don't axe me how I learnt this is a possibility....

PS--did you know your wife is def a keeper??!! Happy Father's Day indeed. My g/f commented about the exhaust on my RS the other day..."Ya know, if you hit a big rock and ripped that thing off, it wouldn't be so bad...then you could get a normal muffler." Sigh...

There's a lot to be said for stock exhaust. I like it on my legacy.

Sweet deal! How's it sound? Are you worried about cops or inspection time? Did you save the stock axleback to pop it on during inspection time

It sounds great when you want it to but with the stock big DONKEY mid pipe resonator it is just perfect. The car runs smoother and for some reason seems to have moved the torque down some. On flat and level road you can cruse at 35-40mph in 5 gear without it just dogging down. As far as inspection it is no louder than the STI axleback below

1500-2k rpms. And yes I still have both the STI and stock 2.5i axlebacks in the attic.

...cuz she really really likes the 68 Volvo I bought over the weekend, thass why! It has a fresh 2-liter with big honkin 2-bbl Weber and sport exhaust...her first comment on the test ride was, "hey honey you gonna need a new muffler for this thing!"

Any chance you would be selling the STI axleback?!
