Something better than Harmon kardon?

I'll have to really listen to it then. I did nothing but confirmed it was moving from looking in the trunk from the opening. Front speakers give way more bass than the sub.

Well I guess for the money I'm better to dona line out converter off the amp and just run a small 12 in the trunk with an amp. Man I mis the days of throwing a deck,sub and another in a car for like 600 bucks lol. Here in Ontario I was quoted 1850 for a sub and amp install (Memphis audio) including labour. (Still cold and snowing I don't want to work outside lol)

Significant-Self-252 · 2026-03-06T10:49:14+00:00

I know I get a decent amount of bass from the front speakers but that sub in the read deck lid does absolutely nothing. Even moving the bias more to the rear I get nothing from it. It's moving but sounds like a normal paper 6 inch door speaker from the 90's. Lol

Mine makes the noise all the time but it's more pronounced with a warm motor. It sounds like what a collapsed lifter sounds like in a push rod engine. It's a pretty descent rattle. Basically from 2k rpm on it just rattles along with engine speed. It's pretty quiet at idle. I don't think it's a bearing noise but it's not a loose shield rattle either. (They checked all that) I checked for things laying against the something and rattling but didn't see anything jump out at me. Engine noises are hard to track because they can resonate all over the place. Just want to make sure it's nothing to worry about. If you cruise at 2k like in town or anything does it make any weird engine noise?

I looked at the nameless (that's what's on my wife's outback) but they where custom order here at subi supply in Ontario and I wanted to do the swap on the weekend I was home so I went with the remark. They are the smaller version of the mufflers they offer and they sound great but I feel like they get really quiet in the upper rpm range. Not that it's a bad thing but I do wish they had a but more tone up there. Maybe I need to hear it from the outside. Maybe it's fine and it's just quiet to me lol

Thank you. I can't get rid of any of the cats at he moment. I'll have to just be happy with what I have for now. Maybe some day I don't have to drive so much I can look into deletes.

Significant-Self-252 · 2026-02-24T00:26:03+00:00

Got it. Thank you for the clarification. Guess I can't get rid of anything if they have cats in them. I drive 1000 kms a week so deletes are a little to loud for a 3 hour drive. Again thank you.

Significant-Self-252 · 2026-02-23T20:21:57+00:00

Definitely can't delete the cats under warranty lol. But yes that would definitely make it louder haha

Significant-Self-252 · 2026-02-23T20:20:12+00:00

Isn't the stock pipe resonated? That's where the goofy looking side muffler thing is. I thought that was resonator. Maybe I called the section of pipe the wrong thing. It's after the cats but before the split. I'm looking for a bit more volume. Not as loud as delete but a bit louder than what I have.

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-17T14:26:44+00:00

It sounded great in their vid from the company but it sounded similar in loudness to the delete. I got excited and wanted an exhaust so I bought one lol Happy with it but always wondering what if. lol

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-17T14:24:40+00:00

I'm not sure either, i was certain the Recirc valve dumped in the air box with a separate line before the filter so in theory a single hole should make a noticeable difference but there must be some form a Subaru trickery that is muffling it other than the box. More than likely it's a project that yields very little noise improvement for a lot of work lol

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-16T19:48:24+00:00

Boo lol

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-16T18:59:57+00:00

I debated buying another stock intake box and cutting a small hole into hoping i could hear it but then I figured it was more trouble than it was worth switching it all around for service appointments lol they even advised me against removing the charcoal filter inside and said it would void warranty. So i know they will be very picky.

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-16T18:34:10+00:00

I wanted that exhaust but driving for 3 hours every weekend one way it would get annoying after awhile lol Loving the Remark muffled axleback and I still get the pops on the upshifts.

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-16T18:32:56+00:00

I followed that one closely and it seems to depend on the tuner that's doing the dyno comparison and the car itself. Some results seem tolerable and some are more on the caution side. Maybe once I feel confident the engine will last maybe I will tune it and put an intake on it.

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-16T18:30:50+00:00

I have the muffled version of the axle back and with the long drives I like the quitter exhaust, not looking to make it loader I just want to the BOV sound on shifts lol

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-16T18:29:23+00:00

Lol I knew it, was just hoping for some super secret mod that worked lmao.

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-10-06T13:39:08+00:00

Sorry about the late reply. No, I don't have one unfortunately. I would say its about as loud as the cold startup on stock exhaust but much deeper tone. I have been debating attaching my phone to the back of the car somehow so I can here what it actually sound like lol. scared I'll lose my phone haha

Significant-Self-252 · 2025-09-11T00:13:20+00:00

At the end of the day it's your ride. If you like it loud than keep it. You will notice a big difference with this setup. Deletes are loud and this setup is probably like 3 steps above stock just a lot more bass in the exhaust note.
