Ricearu Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 holy fire hazard batman, you need some heat shielding in there stat! also where did you get that UEL? My outback sounds like a honda and I don't like it. I just upgraded from a 90 lego (avatar) to a 97 outback and am waiting to put a pipe on it until I go UEL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maozebong Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 needs MOAR flapper. x2. get a lil flapper valve like you see on tractors. rain will collect in the exhaust otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already do I just take it off when it isn't raining or snowing. I love that it bugs other people in drive-thru's. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 What kind of fuel economy are you getting. My exhaust is similar less the stack, having the cherry bomb in the mid-pipe and a borla replica header. I am getting 15 mpg, that is 7.5 gallons to 105 miles when i filled up last.

89ChevondaSI Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 I get about 19-20 on unleaded then a solid 20 on premium and 21-22 on premium without ethanol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89ChevondaSI Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 SO the header I have is topspeed-pro1-performance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Yeah my 15 mpg was regular grade 10% ethanol. I went with mid grade this time, i will see if that helps. I might have to make some sort of baffle for the tailpipe to help the torque. If none of that helps, i would probably be best to go back to a stock header, or get cams. the last 95 legacy i got averaged 18mpg with stock header and no muffler, hollow cats, but it ran so rich it would sting my eyes.

89ChevondaSI Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 ^ that sounds like my truck. lol I was getting 18 with oversized mud tires on it. but it runs so rich now I get about 10 with undersized highway treads. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
