WHAT TYRES ??
Ok guys n gals, can I just get a thread going to see what tyres people are running on their new age wrx, I'm specifically interested in what people are running on their hawkeyes in a 215 45 17 fitment and how you feel about them but all new age can be involved, ive got the toyo t1r on my hawk wrx wagon and although very grippy in the dry I just can not get on with the soft sidewall and vagueness they have on turn in and quick direction changes I've looked at re070 potenza and vredestein ultra vorti but can't find either in a 215, I want something with a stiff sidewall and razor sharp handling which the toyos don't have on my car apparently due to the cars weight (people say they are fine on classics) thanks for any info received .... piggy 😁

Fuel lean @4500 rpm on boost
What you need to do if possible is log the air/fuel ratio all through the rev range and see where it's leaning out

Fuel lean @4500 rpm on boost
Air/ fuel correction in row 2 is at 25% on a quick glance and without knowing anything else it looks bad, looks as tho it's trying to add 25% more fuel to the map not sure as don't know the software or driving conditions

I was gonna go alcatek just on price alone until I read about the customer service issues, it is truly shocking, wouldn't touch it with a long thing

Rocker cover Bolt stripped Ej20g
I read somewhere that someone had this problem, they had a machine shop make them another bolt with a 7mm thread instead of the 6 and wound that in there, now I'm not sure if they tapped it first, but you can actually turn the bolt thread itself into a tap for ally by putting two cuts in the thread wit a hacksaw, you generally can't stop a leaking gasket on these by tightening up the bolts once it's started leaking, I would imagine you would still have a leak even if you did the 7mm mod oops, just seen the date of post, well hope this helps someone else, would like to know how op got on

Just make sure you go to a reputable company that's mapped scoob before, not really sure who's up your way but no doubt there will be someone , just make sure you check reviews online first , and that they properly test drive it after . defo !!!!! ^^^^^^^

Panel filter or cold air intake, (CAI purely for noise as the normal air box will flow fine up to at least 350bhp, maybe a 255 fuel pump for piece of mind, same with one step colder plugs, and definitely a back box, mine (2007 wrx 100k) made nearly 280 with samota panel filter, plugs, 255, and a straight through back box on standard turbo

What Tyre Brand Would You Choose?
Do not fit toyo to a newage, sidewalls are too soft, I've fitted some on my hawk wagon, grip is excellent but the car moves around A LOT on the sidewalls and really messes up the turn in and flickability of the car, apparently they are ok on classics as they are lighter. I've got t1r on mine

LOSING POWER on NA with HKS Mushroom Install!!!
I had this exact same problem on my 2003 wrx stuck a cheap short ram on, messed up the power and would not rev out, so tried airbox back on with inch sized holes bored in it, same thing, put standard air box on, back to normal, turbulence over maf is real and bad, and heated air is awful, don't know if this relates to your model at all but thought I would put it out there, i now have a quality cold air feed induction kit fitted on a different scoop, all good
