Welcome to Saab92x.com!

I'm looking for an STI axle back in the area. I love the new ride, but I want a little more of that Subaru rumble note. Not a ton, just a taste.
I'm in Portland, Maine. I'm willing to travel a bit, but not a tank of gas far...
Anyone got one laying around? Or know of one?

I can ship...

How much would shipping be from OK? Probably more than it's worth...

Probably, I just threw some numbers into UPS and came up with about $50

I've sent a few exhausts, it's going to be about $60 any way you cut it, if you pack it really well and efficiently. Best on the exhaust is UPS, btw.

Nobody has one to sell? I thought this would be a fairly easy thing to snag...
Would an '06 SPT exhaust fit? How about an '05 STI? Can I broaden the search by crossing years?
EDIT: An '04 perhaps? Just found a decent price for one of those...

I have mine all packed and boxed right now. Just sitting it in the garage. I can take it by ups tomorrow for a 100% accurate quote, but I am betting 50-60 to ship. What's your budget for this?
Anything 02-07 is going to fit. 04 Sti will work. Mines an 05. an 06 SPT will work. I highly recommend it, I just got one myself. A lot throatier than the STi though.

Thanks, phillipj. Good to know they'll all bolt on.
I just found a craigslist post for an '04 axle back about an hour away from me. I'm gonna try on that one first, since it should be pretty cheap/easy.
There's also a guy selling his cat back SPT exhaust in the area for $300. I don't know how much he'd want for just the axle back or if he'd even sell it separated. It's probably more than I want to spend though. I just want my engine to sound like it supposed to, no need to go spending a couple hundred dollars to do that.
If UPS is on your route for some errands or whatever, go ahead and get a quote if you want to, but know that $90 is my budget for this one. Thanks either way!

I can't believe you haven't found one yet! No one in your area drives an STi? I just pm'd a local STi owner on NASIOC and asked if he still had his stock a/b laying around, easy as that. Good luck!

Posted an ad on Monday per your suggestion, Andrew. Notta one response so far. WHERE DA AXLE BACKS AT, Y'ALL?!
My car sounds like a Camry right now and I do not like that.

^^ mainelysubarus is not very active. If you can contact SUBARUDE directly, he usually can get parts. He has a section called SUBARUDE's parts. Or something like that. Just PM him.
Offline
Cool, thanks. I PM'd. Fingers crossed.
Offline
Heard back from SUBARUDE. He currently has a wrx exhaust, and a Maddad Whisper axleback. The search continues.
Offline
I pm'd that guy. He's in Chicago though...shipping...
Offline
Found this on craigslist, about 45 minutes drive from me.

Anyone heard the Apexi axleback? Is it as described in the ad? Because that's exactly what I'm looking for. Rumble at low rpm, no drone.
Also, should I be worried about the pinholes?
Offline
IIRC, the Apexi is loud. Pinholes will probably make it louder, maybe some other odd sounds?
Offline
do not want loud. Just want boxer.

A guy on Nasioc will ship me a good condition STI Catback for $210 ($90 for shipping, $120 for exhaust). That's more than I thought this would cost me, but I haven't had any luck otherwise so far...
Thoughts?
I don't need a new midpipe but he doesn't want to separate them, so I'd get that too.
Offline
I still have mine for $90 + $60 shipping.
You'll want the midpipe too. The small STI resonator will make a difference versus your 06 resonator.

What kind of condition is it in? Do you have pictures?

Your midpipe will be too short to use on the 2.5i.

Is it not going on the Aero in his signature?
