Bosal 286-557 Exhaust Silencer

Great quality unit. Read the product description before ordering, this unit is designed for California emissions equipped Subaru's. I made the same mistake as another customer and ordered it for a federal emissions outback 2.5i. It will be 3-4" too short to work. Bummer, but that's on me. Hopefully this will help someone else out.

The exhaust pipe fit my 05 Outback well, and doesn't leak anywhere, and gets the job done. The welds on this exhaust pipe are rather poor quality in my opinion, and a very globby, and not cleaned up (a lot of slag on the pipe). In my opinion, the welds should have been cleaner, but it does get the job done,

This pipe hits my left side suspension mounts when used with the stock (original) mufflers. Rattles a lot. Mau work better with Bosal mufflers, I don't know. But I would have thought it would be a direct replacement for the original.

Excellent fit on my 2005 sub outback. Good quality, super fast shipment!

Craftsmanship is ok, weld are complete and flanges are clocked correctly.The problem is that it is about 3" too short.

Worked fine on my subaru outback 05.
