I was at WalMart looking through this month's issue of Turbo magazine and they had an article on exhausts for the WRX. It took like 10-20 exhausts and compared all of them... price, size, HP GAINS, TORQUE GAINS, loudness, etc.

It was awesome. That's exactly the type of comparison I want to read when trying to decide on a part. Too bad no one will do that for our cars.

Just for the record, the average HP gain for the WRX from the exhausts was like 11hp or something

they won't. nobody will read to see which CAI will give you that full 1/2 HP gain across the power band.

11hp for the WRX? That's sad considering I gained more than 15hp on my Crown Vic while leaving the stock diameter piping.
