What does the Exhaust Header do？
Upgrading your 1997-2005 Subaru Impreza or Subaru Legacy GT with this performance Exhaust Header will instantly enhance your vehicle's performance and driving experience. Designed specifically for non-turbo 2.5L models, this exhaust header helps to maximize exhaust flow, reduce back pressure, and increase horsepower by up to 20 HP and torque, giving your Subaru the muscle car sound and performance you’ve always wanted.
Replacing your factory exhaust system with this high-performance header will also help improve fuel efficiency. With an estimated 0.5 mpg improvement in fuel economy, you’ll save money at the pump over time. For example, if you drive 15,000 miles per year and gas costs $3 per gallon, you'll save around $85 annually on gas. Over five years, that’s enough to almost pay for the cost of a full cat-back exhaust system!
Whether you're driving your Impreza RS, Outback Sport, or Legacy GT, this exhaust header upgrade will elevate your car’s sound and performance while being cost-effective in the long run.
Exhaust Header VS Manifold, which is the better choice?
Upgrading to FLASHARK Exhaust Headers for your 1997-2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5L or Legacy GT improves both performance and sound. Unlike the stock exhaust manifolds, which are made of thick iron and create back pressure, exhaust headers are made of lightweight stainless steel and feature individual tubes for each cylinder. This design helps to reduce back pressure, allowing the exhaust gases to flow more freely and increasing horsepower by up to 20 HP and torque.
In addition to performance gains, these headers give your vehicle a more aggressive exhaust sound. Installation is easy with the direct bolt-on design—no modifications needed.
If you’re driving a Subaru Impreza RS, Outback Sport, or Legacy GT, upgrading to FLASHARK Exhaust Headers will deliver noticeable improvements in both performance and exhaust note, all while being simple to install.

Great sound ! Had to stretch it to fit my 2000 Subaru forester but good welds and good quality seems like. I would buy it again.

Exhaust Header for 1997-2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5L Racing NON-turbo
Thank you for your comment and I look forward to receiving your feedback pictures!

Wow! I couldn't be more thrilled with how this turned out. The fit was darn near perfect. I've read countless reviews of people having to cut or modify these to fit their engine, or at minimum use ratchet straps or several buddies to force them into shape. Mine was able to fit on with just minimal persuasion with one hand.
Fit and finish is just outstanding. Added that nice boxer rumble too. Well worth it!
We are very glad that you like our products! Looking forward to receiving your feedback pictures or videos!

I Installed this header on an EJ22 in a 88 GL Wagon. Fitment is great, a little tight getting both primary flanges over the studs. but fairly effortless. I recommend starting with the driver side flange then flexing it over to install the passenger side flange. If installing on an EJ22 I recommend using a next gen oil filter for something like an 04 Subaru outback. (smaller diameter filter, more clearance around passenger side primary piping). Sound level is 11. Straight piped it is absolutely bananas, nice decel crackle/pop. Power wise, butt dyno says the power band comes in a little later , but is a bit broader. Pulls north of 6000rpm in 3rd gear much more easily than stock y-pipe. off idle take off feels great , power feels a little flat from a dig in 2nd/3rd gear 2000-3000rpm range.
Thank you for such heartfelt feedback, which we will pass on to our developers.
