Did this a while ago but only just took pics:

Before:

After:

The standard exhaust was quiet, and was corroded. So I replaced it with a larger one, now it has that true Subaru burble!!

Got a sound clip?

At first I thought you bought a new camera with zoom

Nothing like good sound of the Subaru burble

Ouch.

Bob I guess you didn't know what those things are called in Canada, but Ovr's right. They have also been called Dumpsters and neither one is a sign of affection.

Over (Ovr) here they are usually worn the the Wannabees - the Cool Crowd and the Pretenders. Your redeeming grace is that you actually have it on a car that is designed for performance - built in and not added on.

Yours would not be 'SBD' and you can chew on that one.

Ha ha, I know it's a fart can!

But they come as standard here on the latest STi and Evo IX, it was from a Subaru dealer as I loved the sound of the latest cars as they were shifting them about, mine was too quiet. The boxer engine sounds great though, the only four-pot to sound good through an exhaust like this.

They sure do, when I hooked up with CUT two years back he heard me coming before he could see me……. He thought it was a Porsche coming. That was my 2002 WRX with MRT exhaust.
A proper aftermarket exhaust on a WRX boxer engine is a pleasant sound.

I also have a fart can, and I really hate the looks of it. But man..not much flows as well as the fart can I have.

On some vehicles they do sound good but on the majority of them the name is correct. I would rather have a set of 3" pipes with the sound of a V8 coming out as to me thats the sweetest sound their is.

Flowmasters sound sweet too - hmmn I wonder what an Acadia would sounds like with one?
Maybe just a little bit of 'tude?

Nah, I kinda like it!

Although when you look over your shoulder before changing lanes you always think there is someone behind you!

Thats exactly what i am running with the 3" pipes hanging on the end for a short ways only. Maybe 20-30 years from now when the Acadia is just starting to get a wee bit tired they might help it out then.
