Changing the Tune of our 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS – Cat Back Exhaust Install

There are a lot of videos out there showing the Tsudo N1 exhaust on their Imprezas but it’s really tough to find an actual install video, so we decided to make one! Previous Owner had replaced the exhaust in the past, but still with something near factory. My son wanted an upgrade and went with the Tsudo N1. It’s an easy install with minimal tools required. There’s definitely a “best way” for installation order, though.

UPDATE 2/19/24: I forgot to include this when I made the video. One thing we ended up doing about a month after this install was buying a slightly longer isolator for the rear most mount (the one in the video we had to cut through to remove) because we worried that it was putting too much strain on the muffler. If you have that issue, the isolator is really cheap (see part below).

Parts and tools:
• Tsudo N1 exhaust kit: https://semotors.com/tsudo-98-05-impr...
• 14mm socket/wrench
• 12mm socket/wrench
• 9/16” socket/wrench
• WD-40 to lubricate the hanger bushings if needed
• Longer exhaust isolator https://amzn.to/49bOFEt
