Stage 2 for Baja?

[PenguinSub]

Hey everybody...

So I've been looking around for parts (catback, turboback, etc) and am realizing.... there is not much out there.


Hence, I ask you all, who most likely know waaay more about our gorgeous vehicle than I ever will, the following:

Where can we look for performance upgrade parts, and which vendors are known to supply to us bajaha owners?

Well xcceleration.com does have a VERY nice full turboback for our Baja's that fit very nice. And sound nice as well. I bought one with in a month of buying my 05 last year. If you want a catless up-pipe for the baja really any that will fit the 2.5l WRX engines will work just fine. There are side-feed injectors for more fuel flow and larger turbos are pretty much just bolt-on. Majority of these things will warrent a open-source tune from a local tuner. But if you just toss on a turbo-back you'll be fine. ANd you'll turn heads cause NO ONE! expects to hear a Baja sound like a WRX/Sti when driving by. I do get a few WTF?!!? looks from a few local Subaru owners. Hope that helps some.

Yea, I saw the xcceleration.com website, but I was hoping for a few more windows of opportunity, rather than one vendor alone.

The UP info is good to know, though...


Are there any other places besides xcceleration to check out for turboback?

[Ahzlon]

Not really. xcceleration owns the patent layout for out baja's for the full turbo back. It's a bit pricey but I can tell you it fits quite nice. There were a couple of tough parts to get lined up all happy and such. But I have had it on the car for nearly a year and no issues. Plus the 2 randomtech cats have a nice warranty on them. Plus both are highflow replacements for your stockies. I have not thrown a code yet. The exhaust is nice an vocal on the outside with out being obnoxious. But if you have the windows rolled up you can hear it but it does not drone inside the cabin at cruising speeds. It's very easy to hold a conversation inside the car while driving 75.
