I happened to run across a guy who goes to class at my school and he handed me a slightly used sti stock exhaust... What is the difference between the two and would it be worth it for me to go ahead and install it tomorrow? i mean it will be free because i am doing it myself but does anybody think i will get anything positive out of it?

The STi is the larger single tip and probably has a bit less resistance to flow.

I actually like the twin tip of the older WRXs over the single tipped ones.

I don't think you would get much perceptible performance gains, but will probably change the tone/note.

Yeah I figured there wouldnt be much of a performance gain but i would like to hear a little change in tone... I plan on upgrading to an aftermarket exhaust soon anyways but hey, it will make a fun time after work to install a new exhaust system instead of just sitting at home doing nothing!
