In 2022 when the latest generation of Subaru WRX was released, it was a mixed review of emotions. Some were underwhelmed, and some had questions. The main topics of discussion or the point of references were the taillights that had a little Honda Accord in them, and the black plastic fender flare trim that provided the exterior with an overlander-like look. Perhaps enthusiasts wanted something a little more wild and refined. However, it is still a rally-inspired AWD sedan with a turbocharged 271hp boxer engine at a starting price of $29,000 for a base model that is still full of modern amenities, ergonomics, and technology. This is huge especially since most new cars even at entry-level trim are astronomical in price for the average working citizen.
Two years after the VB Subaru WRX had been in the hands of the aftermarket. Many of us had came around. This car grew on us very quickly thanks to coilovers, and a proper set of wheels. Yes, the 2022+ Subaru WRX is admittedly a great looking vehicle as the aftermarket had really changed the overall dynamic. Aside from the mentioned upgraded suspension and wheels, other mods such as upgraded headlights, taillights, and aero mods such as side skirts and a front lip really dress up the VB very nicely.

Like any previous-generation of WRX, the new 2.4-liter FA24F engine responds well to a cold air intake, a proper tune using a COBB Accessport, an upgraded boost control solenoid, and other turbo upgrades such as a blow-off valve. And yes, just like any previous WRX models, the main modification will be the cat-back exhaust system. An aftermarket cat-back exhaust system is pretty standard and one of the most, if not the most popular first upgrade enthusiasts like to perform when they get a new car. The main benefits are performance, and sound. Your factory exhaust system is restrictive to a degree, and that is due to smaller piping diameter, and several bends to clear the contours of the under chassis. A proper cat-back exhaust system features larger piping with as minimal bends as possible. This design allows the exhaust gases to escape much more quickly which allows the turbo response to increase sooner. The result is more horsepower, more torque, with an aggressive exhaust note.
Since it has been two years since the VB had been released, there are now several exhaust options available. Below are our top 5 exhaust upgrades available for the latest Subaru WRX.
NUMBER 5: INVIDIA GEMINI R400 CAT-BACK EXHAUST
Invidia is one of the most sought-after and favorable exhaust upgrades for just about any generation Subaru WRX, STI, and other turbocharged models. Their best features are proper 304 stainless steel construction, clean craftsmanship, quality, and price point. Finished in a beautiful polished stainless look, the Gemini R400 features precision welds, great fitment, and everything needed for the installation. A deep rumble will exit quad polished tips.
HIGHLIGHTS:
- 304 stainless steel construction
- Larger piping diameter from the mid-piping back
- Quad polished tips
- Direct replacement with great fitment
- More power, torque, with improved throttle response
- Produces a deep yet aggressive exhaust note

NUMBER 4: COBB TUNING 3-INCH STAINLESS STEEL CAT-BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM
COBB Tuning really stablished themselves over two decades ago by developing arguable one of the best tuning devices available for the Subaru WRX, and that is the COBB Tuning Accessport. Being stewards in the Subaru performance aftermarket, their research and development is highly methodical sacrificing countless hours, motors, and testing to make sure each product lands right in the strike zone. They take a simplistic approach with their cat-back system by sticking with the main formula, and that is using durable materials, with a design that produces results. Here are additional features:
- 304 stainless steel construction
- 3” and 2.5” main piping
- 3.5” double-wall tips
- CNC mandrel bent piping with precision TIG welds
- Direct fitment to make more performance and sound out of the FA24F
NUMBER 3: ETS SINGLE EXIT TITANIUM CAT-BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM
Extreme Turbo Systems is a company that is about setting world record times at the drag strip and standing mile events. The best part about watching them blast R35 GTR’s in the 6-second range, watching their Evo-X brake records, or watching their team member Miles Kerr run 213 MPH in his Integra in a ½ mile, is that this is a part of their research on their own products. The approach leading to this single-exit cat-back system is all business. Single exit layout for weight savings, full titanium construction for even more weight savings, with minimal bends and larger piping diameter to maximize the performance. With 3-inch piping diameter and a total weight of just over 15 lbs, this exhaust system is the perfect return on investment in terms of performance, sound, and craftsmanship.
DETAILS:
- 100% Grade 2 titanium construction
- Marmon-grade V-band flanges
- 3” piping diameter
- 4” Exhaust tip
- Weighs 15.2 lbs
NUMBER 2: TOMEI EXPREME TI CAT-BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM
The Tomei Expreme Ti was one of the first full titanium cat-back options that was available for many makes and models for enthusiasts who wanted a full titanium option without the wait time. Released more than 10 years ago, a full titanium cat-back system was more of a bespoke design due to the high complexity of welding titanium. Because you cannot conventional mandrel bend titanium piping like 304 stainless steel, Tomei uses the method of JDM pie cuts. The result is pure fabricated titanium art that produces a distinct high-performance exhaust note. We decided to highlight the dual-exit version although there is a single exit example available. The dual-exit exit known as the Tyde D features slightly larger than 3-inch piping diameter to work well with mild mods, and can flow substantial horsepower numbers.
FEATURES:
- Full titanium construction
- 3.2-inch piping diameter
- 4.5-inch exhaust tips
- Weighs 26.5lbs
NUMBER 1: AWE TUNING TOURING EDITION CAT BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM
Although the previous choices are top-tier, and choosing a favorite anything is purely subjective, we chose the AWE Touring Edition cat-back exhaust system mainly because of the versatility in terms of sound. AWE has two versions of their cat-back options for the VB WRX. They have here, the Touring Edition which includes mufflers to suppress the sound although it is still deep and aggressive. And then you have the Track Edition which is designed with no mufflers, and will be the loudest and most aggressive sounding choice. Now the versatility comes from the fact that you can purchase AWE’s Conversion Kits which include mufflers to convert your Track Edition to a Touring Edition, or they can include muffler deletes to convert your Touring into a Track Edition. The benefit is that there are some of you who desire something louder, or not so loud, and you can purchase a conversion kit to satisfy your sound preferences. Note that both will still produce great performance results.
DETAILS:
- Designed with AWE’s 180 technology to defeat drone
- Precision fitment to be a direct replacement upgrade
- No CEL lights
- Increases power, performance, and sound
- Long-lasting 304-stainless steel construction
- Creates a race-inspired exhaust note
These are all great exhaust options that will sound excellent, while increasing the power on your 2022+ Subaru WRX. It will boil down to your budget, how much weight to want to save, the way it looks, and other pending variables. But it all depends on your needs. All of these options are brought to you by the most dominant brands in the Subaru industry and will improve the performance and driving experience on your VB Subaru WRX.
