some sound like a put-put-put-put-put deep tone. but never like an impreza. what kind of exhaust do you have. i have never seen a need for any kind of silencer on a turbo 240.

You sure it's not an exhaust leak somewhere?

its hard to describe the sound of exhaust online with just text lol.

When i first put an Apex N1 on my SR, it htought it sounded much like a WRX just because it was deeper tone than my RS-R. Find someone local to help u out.

how's your idle? are you running rich? does the car seem like it has good power? is the turbo spooling well?

You could have a leak in the intake or exhaust. Also, check your plugs. I guess it's possible that your SR had cams installed.....

HAHAHAH! you've got to be kidding me. You should hear my car (Blitz Nur Spec exhaust). It's retarded loud without the silencer.
