Red intake manifold is normally a big giveaway for an STI....

Steering wheel rattle UPDATE HELP
My mate had a lot of issues with his steering wheel vibrating... he was in constantly getting the peugeot garage to check it and balance the wheels, (car was under warranty) turned out one of the alloys was actually damaged (buckled slightly)... maybe worth getting someone to have a good look at each alloy

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Probably not my one specifically but there are different models out there depending on the year of your car!

Angled exit back box
It's not really loud... I had it along with a non-resonated centre section and it was noticeable but not ridiculous
-
Angled exit back box
Yup, I bought my exhaust from a guy who had it on his classic... So I was anticipating not having to use the third hanger, back box arrived and the hangers were in the newage position. So he had it on his classic without any problems it would seem!

Angled exit back box
I'm selling my old Japspeed exhaust, sounds nice, deep and burbly... it is a straight exit tho and the third hanger would be the wrong way around but have heard that people just don't use the third hanger and everything is fine.

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
I did have the spring set to tight so the valve wouldn't open below 4000rpm... so got some turbo chatter then above 4k get the phhssst :D

BOV fitted... still tweaking it as the spring can be adjusted along with how much vents. Decided to try 100% venting and the car runs exactly the same as before... it occasionally has an extra pop from the exhaust but there is no hesitation from the engine at all. Overall... very pleased!!

Dashcams, show us your view!
People are supposed to fill both lanes then filter.... otherwise the tailback from one lane could cause issues at junctions and roundabouts etc....

De-catting and mapping
I've done loads of googling and can't find a definitive answer on it... hmmmm

De-catting and mapping
Interesting!! Will def be something I ask when I get my car mapped! Savage, do you know anything about Question 1?
-
De-catting and mapping
So i can pass with just the downpipe cat alone as long as everything is up to temperature?
-
What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Will do!
-
What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Yeh main reason i went for it was so that I can control how much vents so that the car is happy... Don't want to run the risk buying one that is full atmo in case my car doesn't like it!!

Yeh, it's the 2nd one i've seen that is a hybrid one... and it's almost £100 cheaper!!

De-catting and mapping
Hey guys, Couple of questions in regards to cats and mapping etc. At the mo, I have all 3 cats in place, haven't touched them... I'm not going to do go down the decat/sports cat route either. I do have a de-cat up pipe waiting to be fitted and I know the car will need to get remapped once it's fitted so that's sitting in my garage until i can afford to get the car mapped. 1.) Can I replace the cat pipe with a decat pipe (keeping standard up-pipe and downpipe cats in place) without a remap? 2.) When i can eventually get the car mapped and decat the up-pipe, so potentially only have the standard down pipe cat... will that be enough to get me through emissions? Ta :D

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
I like it a lot, love the look of it... I will get that pic for you, the reason it's so close is because it's parked right in front of my garage!! It's a little quieter than the Japspeed I reckon, but not had a proper drive in it yet, so when i go to work tonight I'll be able to have a better listen!
