Sounds great! After you’ve had it for a while now, do you still like it? Has it had any noticeable affects on you MPG, or any other performance metrics? Thanks!

@@phgunr Hi Paul, thanks for the feedback & question. I'll be honest - I like it most of the time, but sometimes I *do* miss the quiet ride, particularly if I have anyone else in the car with me (like my kids). I haven't noticed any impact on my MPG or performance, but 2020 has been a weird year and I only drive ~50 miles per week, so it's hard to get a representative sample. I'll do some measurements and report back!

Right on, Joseph. It seriously couldn't be easier to replace, with one KEY note: Buy the exhaust hanger bushing removal tool.

Thanks for this, been debating this on our 2010 outback.. like you I have a wife and kids, so the noise is a concern. We just did a 2” lp aventure lift on ours and it’s made the factory exhaust much more visible and we aren’t fans. I think I’ll be picking this up. 👍

Ooh, I’m really itching to do a lift and am trying to decide which one. Can I ask - what made you choose the LP?
@becker22surfer3 жыл бұрын
@@helloandymoore We went with LP because we had seen a few lp lifted Subaru’s in person and they looked great, their lift also works with the stock springs and shocks & they had free shipping when we ordered 😁. I ended up having to replace the rear shocks once we got them out as they were blown. My only regret is not replacing the stock springs with a stiffer spring when I had it all apart.. we just went camping this weekend and the rear end has A LOT of sag under load. I’m going to be ordering some king springs from primitive racing to try and eliminate that sag. Other than that I don’t have any complaints with the Lp set up 🤙

EXTREMELY easy. Literally like 2 bolts. The real key, though, is to buy the exhaust hanger removal tool - pulling those loos without it is possible but very difficult and you’ll def bloody up your knuckles. The tool makes it much, much easier and is, in my opinion, worth the $30ish.
