Thanks! I try my best to take care of it, hopefully in a couple years or so i'll have enough saved for a full repaint and put on JDM bumpers and beams. As for the exhaust. Subarus are a little different then most but not by alot. Exhaust Manifold -> Up-Pipe -> Turbo -> Downpipe -> Midpipe - Axle-back or mufflers I have 1 cat in my up-pipe and 2 in the downpipe. eliminating those allows me to run more boost and faster spool up. | ||

I do oil changes every 100 miles (yup, Shell Rotella in my car too), change out the air filter after every trip to LA and buy new tires if my car sat for more than 2 days. Gotta pay to play, brah. |

Definetly happy I had it done sooner then later. Broke a nipple on my rad so a quick fix until I am able to order a Mishimoto one. Image size reduced, original size: 768 x 1024.

IDW Supremo Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 870 Member No.: 38,019 Joined: Oct 24th 2011 Location: Update Profile | Hey long time no update! Nothing really to say besides that the car is still running fine since the timing belt install and well I started a new job making much more money. Talked a friend last night that has a fully build 04 STi, and I mean nothing is stock on the car besides the body. Anywho heres the hopefully final parts list: -VF52 (will be sent to Grimmspeed for PnP) -Tomei EL Header and catless uppipe -Grimmspeed TGV Deletes -CNT Catless downpipe -Some cheap 3" Midpipe -FMS TMIC -Deutchworks 740cc Injectors and 65c fuel pump I'm hoping I can find most parts used. The injectors and pump will be probably the only new parts for sure. Shooting for 280whp with a really fast spool. |

I wish grimmspeed made more products as I would buy them all! So I found out I have the Sti yellow 550cc injectors so no need to upgrade. I will send them out for cleaning and balancing though. Also I think I might just use their. Porting service on my stock manifold to save some cash. Apparently low end torque will be better. | ||
