robwrx Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 I'm thinking of getting a front mount this week more just to make my front end look the part :). Is the japspeed one worth gettin or is there a better option any help would be greatful thnks.
savage bulldogs Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 although japspeed are at the cheaper end of the scale they do tend to get good reviews . Failing that try looking for a second hand hdi or autobahn fmic as they will slightly out perform the Japspeed and cost a bit less than a new one
stants Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 There's a chap selling one in the parts section at the moment
robwrx Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 Where the part section can't find it mate lol
stants Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/index.php?/topic/12730-Classic-front-mount-intercooler just seen that yours is newage but I'm sure fitment can't be that different
robwrx Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 Nah I don't think they are the same fit ment but thanks mate
stants Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Probably, would benifet from a remap too as it will increase spool up time
robwrx Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 Yeah sound. It's cuming off the road today for a few months to do sum work on her. I'm going to TRY an do a fmic, down pipe ,I got a hks bov off eBay for £60 bargain lol then I'll get a remap. 1
stants Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Good luck ! May as well document it and get it up as fmic's can be a bit fiddly to fit 1
robwrx Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 Yeah I will mate trying to find out how to fit the dump valve to it aswell . Sum vids on youtube show it but the pipe work on the front mont does not show on it unless u have to buy an adapter piece?
quit Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Your use of the word " sum " is the term for a mathematic equation " some " is a pronoun to a unspecified number of people or things Hope that helps 1
Ash007ks Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Rob, the front mount in my opinion ( this is my oppion) (Flame on) isnt worth the hassle unless your going over 400bhp, mine runs 360 and some above that on a newage STI intercooler, chuck the money from that at something more worth while in the long run :)
robwrx Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 Thnks for that mate I'm only going to about 350. So I might just use it on a turbo instead.

Ash007ks Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Good lad :) if yours is a rex go for a VF35 off a blobeye STI or a VF43 off the Hawkeye STI however i cant remember if this turbo is the twi pipe one :/ if not the VF43 will max out at 390bhp but you will most likely see 370/380, the VF35 will be a better and faster spooling unit and will max out around 360-370 depending on a few factors. 1
robwrx Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 Sound mate I've got the sti intercooler might aswell put that on been I've got it. Is it worth going induction instead of panel filter?
quit Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Induction you get more turbo noise but more heat soak
robwrx Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 I was looking at the cobb sf kit with box ?
Ash007ks Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 ive got a blitz cone on mine and no issues here love the noise that they make :)
