Talking just got the $55 ECS exhaust installed

well i immediately noticed 2 things...

1st..... its looks a lot better IMO, it gives it a more refined look

2nd.... it sounds the same, didnt change the tone or anything which kinda bummed me out but oh wel what can u do lol... i paid 5 bux plus shippin and 25 bux to have it installed... what did i expect the sexy subaru rumble? haha

anyways here are the pics i took

here on the rack about to be tightened down and all that good stuff

Looks good!

I wanna see a picture from the back angle tho. The muffler it self sits way further into the car, I was wondering if it pretty much looks like stock muffler from the back/rear angle of the car.

BTW - Thanks for finally posting pictures of this particular muffler.
