looking for some exhaust help

Just bought a MD tdx2 exhaust and i am looking for what else i would need to buy to make it into a full exhaust. I've been looking into berk hfc's lately and i was wondering if i could get those too. But if not what else would i need. I've seen xyz pipes and other things. Coming from headers, up-pipe, downpipe, catback for my subaru so these new terms are messing with me a little bit.

Your exhaust is everything after the cats. So that leaves your headers and cats to replace. Headers are a PITA on these cars. Just a FYI. So that leaves high flow cats or test pipes.

quick dyno for the MD ART pipes over another combo.

Ok so it looks like md's test pipes are better at making power than berk hfc's. I just searched md's website and found these "Advanced Resonance Tuning (ART test pipes)" so i will probably be getting these soon. Does anyone know what a car on this setup would do with a good driver in the 1/4 mile. I know its not that important as i do not normally race i'm just looking to get closer to 12.8's that i did in my last car

My G kept right with a modded wrx with an upgraded turbo at the strip. A better launch and i would have had him.

If you bought the TDX catback, you already have the XYZ pipe. Get the ART pipes, they compliment the exhaust nicely.

Too many variables to say how you'll do at the track (track condition, weather, elevation, other mods, driver exp., etc.). But you definitely will shave off some time, possibly get in the 13's.

12.8 quarter mile? Thats going to be impossible on an NA car. you want those numbers better get FI. Even some supercharged/tt have trouble hitting sub 13.

Oh no i already realized i'm not going to get to 12's in the g and thats not my goal. I would just like to get a little closer lol. I'm also not looking to track it that often i'm just looking for a little more kick so i can begin to forget about my old car (i wrecked it by swerving from a deer and going off the road).
