Hey All!!
I have just got myself a new MY14.5 CJ ES Lancer! and i need some info!! i want to get a new exhaust (just rear) for a bit of sound and no one seems to have them!!
I sold my 2005 WRX and switched to the lancer for fuel economy and looks and love it so far but miss the boxer sound, so i am wanting to know if any one has had the MY14.5 lancers exhaust done and how much!!!
Also any cheap mods? look/performance?
I am based in Outer western sydney Campbelltown way!

Welcome to CJ! I'm sure many people with exhausts can give you ideas from what they have done to theirs!

Yea I know a guy that owns a exhaust shop but don't want to stuff around with the car due to the warranty, i would think as long as the o2 sensor is before where i want to do the exhaust it shouldn't effect anything in regards to the warranty but who knows!
I have been quoted $250 for it and fitted but i think he is quoting me on the old easy to get exhaust not for 2014 MY14.5 Model.
The boxer sound made me want to keep driving the WRX.....I LOVED IT
But i drive 600KLMS+ a week and the fuel was a killer. and i couldn't afford to keep both so practicality won in the end!!
Would love the lance to sound that way but don't think it will happen lol and it will prob just make me boot it a bit!!!
I have read a few post about de badgeing today and went and had a look at my car and there is no es badge but i did remove the lancer one it peeled off easy and next to no residue (1.5 weeks old)
