New exhaust

Okay, I'm new and maybe I asked Subaru for the wrong part...
I was quoted $700 for the left exhaust pipe-front one back with cat in it. I have seen a post or two where someone (Kelvin,maybe) was saying $290 for the part from Subaru??
Could it be that much more in Canada?

Subaruparts has it for $391.98 US (List $440.24US) Using the conversion to canada dollars, the list at your friendly Canadian Stealership is $468.20

The part number is 44107PA050 and it comes with all the heat shielding, etc.



.


There are cheaper alternatives out there. Some here have removed these front converters entirely and used a single high-flow cat, replacing the main cat. Others (like myself) have removed the front cats and replaced them with resonators. No legal or emission issues.

Thanks.
I"m told its just the front section of the pipe that I need, so maybe I'll try to jury rig it for now, then look to replacing the whole system. Its pretty loud right now, so I'd like to cut the noise a little (the neighbors must love me!), but don't want to rush. Maybe some JB Weld and luck.

Okay, back to square 1. Put up with the noise (my son loves it! Would like it deeper though) Research this site and talk to mechanic about best way to go. Get tranny cooler/filter put on and new brake pads this week, leave muffler for next week.
