Detailed Product Description

The Walker 21648 exhaust resonator is engineered with a round body shape measuring 19 inches in length and 3.5 inches in both width and height. Constructed from aluminized steel, it offers enhanced durability against rust and heat exposure. The inlet features a 2 bolt welded flange with a center configuration, while the outlet uses a pipe connection, both sized at 2.25 inches in diameter. This resonator is designed as a direct fit replacement, ensuring compatibility and ease of installation on Subaru Crosstrek, Forester, Impreza, Legacy, Outback, and XV Crosstrek models. Its single inlet and outlet configuration supports efficient exhaust flow and noise attenuation.
