Building a Subaru Crosstrek (Part 6) - Custom 3" Headerback Exhaust Coldstart (SOUNDS LIKE A WRX!!!)

[@BlueOvals24]

If Subaru won't give us a WRX wagon, we'll make our own, I love it!

[@rubyvids8857]

Hahaha this video is worth it just bc of how geeked he is. That's why we love the cars boys. Great video and sounds so good. Cheers brother.

[@HugoHardinge]

Dan Ruby thanks dude that comment means a lot. I smile every time I drive it, sounds killer. Take care!!

[@MarksTech]

[@dawnofthedew7303]

DUDE! I love it!!! I just bought a 2016 crosstrek and I want it to sound like this!

[@HugoHardinge]

🙌🙌🙌🙌 enjoy!!!

[@snowyman42]

This car is so beautiful! You have inspired me to start preparing my 2014 crosstrek for a turbo.

[@HugoHardinge]

Thank you!

[@AMM0394]

Yea buddy. Those unequal lengths will do it! Sounds great

[@HugoHardinge]

Yesssssir!

[@gervaciosantos8331]

Seen you around Carlaw and Lakeshore area a couple weeks back!!!!!! Small world

[@HugoHardinge]

Oh no way lol that’s too funny bro!

[@pauldybro7636]

A little loud at idle when cold, but nice once warmed up. Pretty gnarly. BTW, nice wheel choice, and lower ride height.

[@HugoHardinge]

Paul Dybro thank you man it sounds great

[@khansok5893]

It rumbles like a STI :) Nice !!

[@HugoHardinge]

It does!

[@blankspace3676]

Thats sounds beautiful 👌Legit👍

[@kula5151]

Could you do a list of every mod you’ve done down to the tint?

[@HugoHardinge]

I’ve done no tint

[@alexgotwalt]

That’s awesome 😧 I need this for my Trek

[@HugoHardinge]

Alex Gotwalt thank you man

[@tommyjakks]

Reminds me of a 08 wrx Sti hatch

[@alexk4513]

where’d you get that back spoiler lip looks clean🔥 i got a 2016 crosstrek premium same color as yours + same taillights i wanna add that final touch👌🏽

[@markmurillo3687]

Sound nice and deep

[@willssmall5067]

Perfect you nailed man

[@HugoHardinge]

Wills Small thank you.

[@davepiotrowski1992]

That does sound WRX, nice

[@HugoHardinge]

Thank you

[@speedlife4589]

I have a crosstrek that I’m building car you send the link you got the lower kit from

[@HugoHardinge]

ISC suspension N1 coils for the 08-14 wrx!

[@beckettdougherty6518]

Sounds so good

[@HugoHardinge]

Thank you!

[@reflex1749]

I have a 2021 cross and I threw on a nameless 6” exhaust and it honestly sounds insane. It burbles on 3k pop revs now too long after starting the car. It sounds great and it’s good fun.

[@mickimacdonald6610]

Sounds so good 🤤🤤

[@HugoHardinge]

That it does!

[@charlesebyjr2925]

Purrfect sound

[@HugoHardinge]

Thank you! It really is!

[@DiegoRodriguez-kl8ke]

Cool car man! .. Greetings from Chile!

[@HugoHardinge]

Diego Rodríguez thank you!

[@iwansurjawan2686]

Hi, great exhaust sound. I have subaru xv in Indonesia, and really want to have that kind of downpipe and exhaust like yours. Would you share the design so that I can make it here locally? Thanks and appreciate it.

[@HugoHardinge]

Send me a message on Instagram @rumble.hatch

[@smashedcoconut7]

My cousin has one of these and it’s a manual and Ima tell her that if she ever goes to sell it, I’ll be the 1st one to take up on that offer lol

[@HugoHardinge]

PhlyinPhenoix Gaming they are good fun, if you have imagination and can build it right! It’s a great car regardless

[@martianmartian7281]

Manual is THE WAY to go!

[@therootedprogress]

Wooow that sounds Soo good. But yes these things sound Beasty with a bit of work on the exhaust side. I'm curious to see how much I can open up on my h6 outback. So far we've done a muffler delete and it already sounds great... But I want more lol 😂

[@HugoHardinge]

the.rooted. progress look at inferno fabrications, they offer a uel header for the outback! It’ll sound great

[@therootedprogress]

@@HugoHardinge doppppeee checked em out and followed em on IG. They don't make uel for the H6 but they did offer an aftermarket header. 🥰 Finally found a USA company making em for us H6 owners. Thank so much for helping us out with our outback build!

[@HugoHardinge]

the.rooted. progress reach out to them on Facebook. Steven is a great guy! He’ll get you sorted

[@mrsubaru5367]

Nice,love the look

[@NS22012]

I miss when my Impreza sounded like this.

[@HugoHardinge]

Can't beat it!

[@georgeperez1868]

What is your setup I'm trying to achieve this same sound!

[@HugoHardinge]

In the video!

[@OTBspeed6]

Sounds great my guy! I think I like how it sounds more than my na/t! def gonna drop you a sub.

[@HugoHardinge]

Appreciate you bro 🙌🙌🙌 I’ll do the same

[@RjQ50]

sounds dope

[@boostedlionmedia6835]

How much for the whole custom exhaust

[@ryanpolfliet2896]

How much did the after market add ons cost in all?

[@michaelanthony6785]

Any turbo plans ? Nice car

[@HugoHardinge]

It is now

[@weatherman5300]

Looks SOOOOOOO good 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@K-Zoo_Angler]

Dude sounds so good! 👌🏻

[@HugoHardinge]

Kzoo Angler I’m in love with it man. So much rumble

[@K-Zoo_Angler]

@@HugoHardinge I bet! Sounds hella good! I feel so content with mine now too! Trying to get the woman's outback ready for some rumble

[@HugoHardinge]

Kzoo Angler ooof. Do it. Everyone needs it lol

[@K-Zoo_Angler]

@@HugoHardinge Agreed! I absolutely love my setup now.

[@winstonwedderburn4245]

Are they highway legal because I want those.

[@HugoHardinge]

Had no issues with it

[@bgr8011]

Sounds good man

[@HugoHardinge]

bgr8011 thank you!

[@its_rostk4294]

very sweet. What exact color is that?

[@HugoHardinge]

Dark grey metallic!

[@its_rostk4294]

Thanks so much, I have the green khaki crosstrek from 2013, and after seeing what you’ve done with yours it made me love mine even more! It’s absolutely beautiful, keep up the content brotha!

[@chrisfurssedonn3599]

What is exactly done to ur exhaust an do u have a header?

[@HugoHardinge]

I have other videos explaining it but yes I have an uel header as well

[@georgematos9380]

You ride looks sweet and sounds amazing...are you available for more questions on performance etc...? I am considering buying a Crosstrek. Thanks

[@HugoHardinge]

Hey thank you! I appreciate it! Best way is to reach my on my Instagram! @rumble.hatch Happy to answer any questions you have

[@frankfrankenstein5933]

WOW! That sounds sweet as hell! I need that on my 2020 Crosstrek Premium! How much was the exhaust system installed, parts and labor?

[@HugoHardinge]

Frank Merfalen please message me on Instagram @rumble.hatch or watch my latest video. I discuss all the parts and costs on my build! Thanks for watching

[@charlesebyjr2925]

Purrfect

[@thefizos.w.a.t7457]

can i know your rim & tyre spec please .

[@HugoHardinge]

Here was 17x8+45 (I did add a 5mm spacer later to make it +40) and 235/50/17

[@thefizos.w.a.t7457]

ok tq sir

[@thefizos.w.a.t7457]

done follow ur ig 👏🏻

[@jhosun74]

That's cool what you did to it. I have a black '14 sitting in storage for over a year was planning on selling it but seeing this makes me want to keep it and add some changes. Did you do the suspension yourself?

[@HugoHardinge]

Yup! As much that I could do myself in my garage, I’ve done it! It’s fun:)

[@love2cruz836]

Ontario rep!

[@HugoHardinge]

Yessir!

[@albinusxavier9930]

Sounds awesome. Did you experience any loss of torque when the engine gets hot?

[@HugoHardinge]

Not really! Unless its extremely heat soaked but I haven't had issues with overheating

[@dleetrini]

What is your ground clearance after you lowered the XV?

[@HugoHardinge]

I’d have to measure it, I am lower now than I was in this video

[@gamingseeks3580]

I want this exhaust

[@HugoHardinge]

Haha! Thank you! It sounds pretty sweet I must admit

[@ghostdoesyt5089]

I have a 2019 Impreza and I would love to do something like this. Please help me? Lol

[@FLIPDADY]

How much did the entire setup end up costing you? Looking to do a custom header back for my BRZ. Also in the GTA.

[@HugoHardinge]

Jose Montano shoot me a message on Instagram and I can discuss price there. Just my preference.

[@calpeace534]

センスが素晴らしい

[@txwylde]

Cobb tuning? I know Sam Cobb. :)

[@HugoHardinge]

Very cool!

[@fterra90]

Sounds good man 👍

[@HugoHardinge]

FreddyBluSuba416 thank you man!!

[@ChiefKeith.]

Lmaoo at the end. Sounds dope though

[@HugoHardinge]

Had to make it somewhat funny 😆

[@neilnamuag4831]

Nice, are you using equal length header?

[@HugoHardinge]

Unequal length headers

[@neilnamuag4831]

@@HugoHardinge awesome, now make sense.

[@kylehite9691]

Finally found a good sounding crosstrek but he doesnt post drive by sounds smh

[@andyrichmond348]

All that money you put in the cross tech and with a turbo you still didn’t get as much as a WRX? Woulda cost you a lot less than all the cash you put into that car!! All totaled up. How much money (American $$$) you put into that car?

[@HugoHardinge]

It makes as much as a stock FA20 WRX without under half of the boost. Working with what I’ve got for time being.

[@kaliguy47]

As a professional tig welder, welds suck-

[@HugoHardinge]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@kaliguy47]

Bruh, it's welded, yes. I'm speaking to the tig welder alone. I see stop/starts, cold lap, inconsistencies, and on SS you dont wanna see iridescent colors which shows lack of shielding gas coverage. Looks pretty but weld cooled before its time in inert environment. It's a heavy bead and shouldn't be of concern, just saying man.

[@HugoHardinge]

@@kaliguy47 appreciate the knowledge, no harm in that at all! I know that this would be leaps and bounds better than anything I could do and got this done at a very reputable fabrication shop near me but I respect everyone/anyone’s view and skills on the trade! It’s not easy that’s for sure!

[@kaliguy47]

@@HugoHardinge So I work in aircraft field with military contracts. I really didn't mean to disrespect anyone. Just going by code and basics. Your car sounds sick, none the less. I tuned in to see about 3" exhaust set up.

[@HugoHardinge]

@@kaliguy47 glad you checked it out my man! Thank you :) I appreciate it!
