Default New to SES

Hi everyone, I currently drive a 2016 wrx sti which i picked up in sept after I traded in my 2001 bug eye wagon.
Love the new car but it does not sound like a scoobie far too quiet! so trying to decide what exhaust to get fitted.
Atm I can't decide between the hailwood and Scot supplied by scoobyworld or the Borland type s system, both sound good to me but very different engine notes.
Does anyone have either fitted and if yes I'm interested in on what the cabin noise on long runs is like.

If I'm correct the 2016 is a twin scroll so will never sound like the Bugeye - you can obviously improve the sound but you won't get the burble unless you change the headers.

Hi and Welcome to SES

Be sure to post up some pics of your car when you get a chance, and take a look at our meet section to see up and coming SES gatherings. The first is this sunday

Thanks for the welcome guys.
I know it will not sound the same as my old bug but atm the moment it sounds a bit like a well controlled fart! Excuse my French.
Might have to work this weekend, but if i don't will try and get to the meet

Welcome to SES Steve, no doubt you can get a bit more noise from it, choose an exhaust system wisely as you want to suit both the sounds and looks department!

Hopefully see you at a meet then you can meet the other Steve's.
