Cobb 22-24 Subaru WRX Stainless Steel 3in. Catback Exhaust
The Cobb 3" Catback Exhaust replaces the stock system from the catalytic converter back on 2022-2024 Subaru WRX models. This direct-fit system uses mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing to improve exhaust flow, adding up to 12 WHP and 14 ft-lbs of torque while producing an aggressive, deep exhaust note without drone. At 16.4 lbs, it cuts 19.2 lbs from the stock 35.6 lb setup for better handling and response.
Key Features
- 3" Mandrel-Bent 409 Stainless Steel Tubing: Ensures smooth, unrestricted flow for increased horsepower and torque on 2022-2024 WRX.
- Resonated X-Pipe: Balances exhaust pulses, eliminates interior drone at highway speeds, and enhances mid-range power.
- Dual 4" Polished Slash-Cut Tips: Double-wall design provides a clean, aggressive rear stance with show-quality finish.
- 19.2 lbs Lighter Than Stock: Reduces unsprung weight for sharper throttle response and improved vehicle dynamics.
- Direct Bolt-On Design: Uses factory mounting points and hangers for straightforward installation without fabrication.
Product Notes
- Retains factory catalytic converter and O2 sensors for emissions compliance where required.
- High-flow design minimizes backpressure while controlling noise for street-friendly operation.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Bolts directly to factory downpipe and midpipe flanges using provided hardware.
