Espelir JGT500 exhaust

This exhaust is nice. It is not all that loud but I was used to my wrx which was catless and had an Apexi gt spec on it. The piping is 2.75in at the cat and 3in the rest of the way and comes out of a 4.25in tip. The tip does not touch the bumper but I will be getting a heat sheild for it, and it almost cleared the bumper. I want to thank myevostore.com for getting it here quick and for a good price on the exhaust. Ups on the other hand can kiss my *** cause the box looked like they ran it over and then played football with it. I will take pics tomorrow with it on the car.

Looks good, except that the tip is a hangs a little close to the bumper. BTW, realize you had a catless WRX, but that thing surely can't be considered quiet with that small can.

I have this catback and it wasn't too loud at first. Then I added a 3" MR Downpipe and a 3" UR High Flow Cat and it became a whole different story. Very loud.

Also, one thing I've noticed with mine is that when it is cold it does not clear the bumper, but after the exhaust heats up, the end of the exhaust sticks out just a tiny bit past the bumper. It probably expands about half an inch. Not sure if it's just mine that does that. I'd be curious to see if yours does the same.
