In a few months Bug@5-speed will have a stainless steel exhaust system for both the 2.2 EJ and the 2.0 turbo EJ engines.
I'm ordering my shortened sump from them

I just mailed them to ask if the exhaust system will give more ground clearance for the turbo version (I really hope it will) and will let you know as soon as I find out.

good news, the exhaust isn't any lower then the shortened sump 🙂

here 's the reply I got
"The exhaust system will not be any lower than the oilpan (my flat one). Ground clearance is better than with the original one."

has the new system been flow tested to check what sort of power it will be able to handle.

Is it just the headers to the "up" pipe that you ordered. If you look at mine or Jaks, the exhaust itself is not that low. I drove it out a pretty steep driveway and it didnt scrape to my surprise....the sump is the problem. I also like the fact that the casat iron ones look pretty strong if it was to scrape. The one thing I did order was a new up pipe which you will get with the headers...straighter and bigger apparently increases spool up time. Did you get a landed price from them?

Also with teh cast headers there are 2 different styles at least for teh ej20Ts. One has better flowing bends and came on at least the STIs they flow far better then the standard cast sets. They both run teh same tinware cover so you will have to take that of to see which set you have. I was advised by a reputable subaru performance shop unless you are after every single bit of Hp it is not really worth teh expence of teh tuned length ones. But extra Grond clearence is another matter to consider I guess.

Hi,

My 4 in 1 exhaust pipe in stainless steel is finnished now and can be ordered. It is made of stáinless steel and has the same ground clearance as my oilsump (5 cm less than original). It is available for EJ 20, EJ 22 and EJ 22 T. I also have a Kat and a muffler (both in stainless steel as well). For the Turbo it is without Kat (the Kat from the car can be used).
Price for a complete 2.2 exhaust system with Kat and muffler with two pipes (70 mm) is 1.990 Euro ex works.
Am looking for dealers!
