Although people love the Subaru tone so so much I would change to an equal length header.

I know they make better power but I couldn't do it. I love the sound my car makes now.

also, engine management of some sort, protune, and what do you have for suspension and braking mods to handle and stop all that power?

I have a acessport now but iam going with openecu from dentsport.
the phenolic spacers sounds like a good idea and same with the coating and porting.

the brakes will be getting dba rotors and pads when they wear out.

suspension will be coilovers and sways and solid endlinks. but I'm going after the power first.

thanks for all the stuff so far anymore would be great.

I'm almost leaning for a front mount aps but still not sure.

thats why I'm giving up 5-10 whp going with unequal length headers instead of equal. I love the rumble.

Yeah I love the Suby tone but have no problems getting rid of it. The equal length sound has just been beaten up from hondas with garbage mufflers. A Honda with an exhaust system made for it sounds good. Long time ago I heard one at walmart that sounded as mean as any subaru I have ever heard.

thats sounds like a good deal. I just spend 700 on a ring for the gf and I'm doing the tri state chairty drive. then the green set up so sways are on the bottom of my list. if you still have them in the summer I think ill take them.

Man youre going to be going awfully fast and not be able to turn!



On a side note, I got a buddy that wants your stock turbo!

Kevin
12-19-2007, 05:45 PM
oh it will turn. it already does pretty good. I think some rce springs and sways. and a ton of tic bushing and stuff. I won't have all the go fast parts on the car till spring. and maybe coil overs but I doubt it as I will need a new clutch by then and maybe axels

always amazed how much power people put into their subies before doing suspension and brakes~foodfight~

The WRX could use suspension changes right out of the box but I don't see a problem with what he is doing. Take a WRX and put some sticky tires on it and all the sudden the suspension works great.

As for braking the stock WRX brakes work fine. The tires are what matter most.

I have a sti it handles pretty well. I'm not doing a gt35 or anything lol.
its only gonna be around maybe 310-330whp on ktr's dyno. It's only a fp green. it's not that crazy.

I have brembo's already with upgraded pads.stainless lines are in my shed wating for 30k service. what else I'm I gonna for brakes.

suspension will be sorted on the car maybe a month after the power stuff is done.

haha nice job dumb ass me. At first I typed in a response about the STI and then it had all the quick notes from people in front of me and saw silverwrx and went ohhhhh. Maybe that is why Eugene said that cause he has a WRX and I am mistaken.

That just makes it worse.......... What are you talking about then E ugene?
