ABS relocate, who's done it and how?

[Bu11dogg2]

Like the title says

COBB CAI hits it and causes the filter to hit the hood :unamused:

[yaya]

I have not done it, but have done a little researching on the topic.

First, it's probably recommended that you make the intake fit as opposed to relocating the ABS module.

You could flip the module and mount from underneath the inner fender directly under it's current location. You'd have to get some brake line and a flaring tool and re-route the hard lines. Or, you could delete the module and run new hard lines into a proportioning valve, which could be located pretty much any where your heart desires.

Either way you'll need some hard line, fittings and a flaring/bending tool.

I have a flaring tool you could borrow if you were going to do this

[Bu11dogg2]

sounds complicated :lol:

Cut hole in hood.

Rotate CAI to stick straight up

Drag race

Profit.

would the air turbulance throw the MAF off?

[Berge56]

As long as the maf is after that.... I would think it could be tuned for it. :lol:

[Bu11dogg2]

^that does not look easy :lol:

[yaya]

Hence, why you don't hear about it being done much.

[Bu11dogg2]

I swear that RCKSTR did it...

DO IT

[yaya]

It's actually done a lot in the world of shaved bays (Honda/VW), but it is a huge pain on a Subaru.

Because there's 8million hoses under a Subaru hood :lol:

Cut lines and bypass the module, remove the fuse, rip the module out and throw it the **** out. Subaru ABS (actually any ABS) is the most worthless thing out there for anyone who even has the slightest clue about car control.

Removing will add $$$ to my insurance premium

I have not had it yet..

what year is it? 2012 yet?

and airbags. I got as far as the seatbelt that goes wizzing by my head just enough height for the paranoid chinaman that went socialist on the world.

I have even snipped the seatbelt out of the damn car.

I can't wait to find a 1970 something next...87 is getting too close to the special ed class they needed to graduate with false pride.

we all win..we are all winners. I am full of great joy. :unamused:
it shoulda stayed kill or be killed darnit.

Only if they know about it. The car came equipped with it, they don't look for it.


****, I've disabled it in all 3 of my subies.

[SicRedGt]

Actually if your good with a flaring tool it shouldn't be too bad. Where are you planing on putting it? Please don't say the trunk! :lol:

[Bu11dogg2]

I think it might be easier to get a different after maf tube. Maybe one that's longer.

[Bu11dogg2]

is this longer than stock?

[Bu11dogg2]

and will this fit with an FMIC?

[Berge56]

It may fit, but serious modifications would be needed probably.

[SicRedGt]

I got my K&N typhoon heat shield on with my X02, had to modify extensively but it was worth it.

[Bu11dogg2]

it won't :(

[yaya]

I think KS Tech makes an airbox that should work with your FMIC.

[Bu11dogg2]

and just like all other kstech stuff it's way overpriced :lol:

[yaya]

Such is life.
