How did you get on?? Had a thought - is there a significant weight increase with the 18 inch alloys over the 17's? some aftermarket alloy and wheel combinations can be heavier than the originals?

On its own I wouldnt bother - spend your money elsewhere. Most recent example is here - going back to a standard box removed the hesitation experienced with an induction kit

yup - IMO a bit much - one or the other

I use a dremmel and the plastic brushes instead of the metal ones - saves on the elbow grease

looking good - liking the piano black

nice clean garage there - wonder how long it will stay like that

Wotcha and welcome - as above due to it being N/A big power wont be something to go for but as Stants said plus look at a high flow panel filter with a freer flowing exhaust (sport cat) then a remap - this wont give massive bhp but will ensure your engine is running at its optimum so best mpg etc will be possible

yup they are on this forum somewhere - I know Gambit uploaded some ages ago but here is an alternate link that may work... http://jdmfsm.info/Auto/Japan/Subaru/Impreza/?utm_source=SubaruOwnersClub&utm_medium=ForumLinks

Not a fan of the evo vortex roof spoiler I prefer the high line roof blade option, like the big spoiler on boot lid though High line roof blade example http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Carbon-Fiber-Roof-Spoiler-For-Subaru-Impreza-WRX-STI-2002-2007-GD-GG-Racing-AT-/220497375232

wow - some power to weight ratio that!!

cherry bomb

As above - what are the indications you need the valves clearances checking adjusting?

Matts guidance is almost correct follow most of what he said but look at the turbo itself - it is stamped / cast on the housing

hmm no, profile size matches with what I ran although I had 245's on the 18's, that shouldn't affect it though

Yup this is an issue with keeping the lower panels in place, water sits there and rots the subframes. Fortunately it is a reasonably straightforward job to repair / repaint or replace the units

I'm with Stants - remove it and get a lip spoiler - not keen on that particular style of spoiler risers or not. But that is just my opinion

what a sleeper 800bhp fozzie - awesome!!

I had 18's on my Sti with no issues - the manual did say you would get some noise from the diff on occasion but I was never as extreme as you describe - what size are the tyres on your 17's?

I know an engine builder who has plans to do the same twin turbo H6 setup - will be a beast

depends which ones you have installed currently - I have LEDs in my Scoob and Vito - both have been in for quite a while so I would say stick with LEDs

If you can hold out time wise a private sale may be more lucrative.

Ahhh thank you

Very nice

Hi sorry - slightly confused by the TLA - are you saying your Intake Absolute Manifold Pressure is down to zero? If the car is still generating boost but the manifold pressure is zero there is a huge mismatch (or hole) somewhere between what the turbo is capable of holding and the engine needs. The MAP sensor is a key player here but given the history I wouldn't know if it was calibrated prior to or during the session you had. We just have a snapshot of one thing happening and no view of the relationship to the rest of you motor so I just guessing - sorry

oh yeah I had the two plastic interior door handle cards resprayed, the paint gets chipped quite easily
