New Exhaust needed

Technically not a technical question, but when i took in my 95 SVX to to get the full exhaust replaced I found that Subaru no longer manufactures that exhaust system and that apparently there are "none left in the country". Does anyone know when Subaru stopped making them?

The shop owner was able to do a quick chop and replace fix for a few damaged areas with is a temporary fix for little charge, but how do go about getting a new exhaust system for my car?

I really don't like the look of the new performance exhausts you can buy, I like having the stock muffler coming out the back of the car rather then under it.

Any suggestions?

Re: New Exhaust needed

A "stock-like" exhaust is very doable. Contact SVXFiles or AWD, Inc (Tomssvx) and I'm sure they can work something out for you.

Re: New Exhaust needed

I found a used exhaust in a scrap yard in Pensilvania and another in Colorado. Cost of both including shipping was about the same as one new precat pipe from Subaru. One pipe of the used bunch only lasted one year but everything else I put on is now 3 years old & no sign of a problem. Still have spare parts & original muffler.

I did put in a Stebro pipe from the main cat to the muffler. Stebro makes the entire system.
