[kawikid20o2]

^so werent you gunna dry hump the wag00n, i think you stood her up for that date!

[topend]

I'm a big fan of ur current wagon. has the rareness factor along w/ some slick mods :) keep it up bro

[Judau]

I vote for a swap. :) It already looks excellent... maybe get some summer rims to REALLY make it look great... and the projector fogs will look badass, too. But a motor swap would make this car really friggin badass. :) Maybe in a few years, like mine. :lol:

[kawikid20o2]

In this order, Brembos and STi BBS wrapped in azenis, KYB AGX's and whiteline springs, bushings and rear sway, then lastly the swap which i will not specify what engine yet but I allready have this in mind and you all will find out closer toward the final stages (Like when i turn to ECS for a harness).

[kawikid20o2]

These came 10 min ago I just unpacked em.

Also ECS called and the cars done so I'm gettin my room mate to drive me up so PEACE!!!

What were they doing?

[tommy]

got to say i love your wagon justin

i think you should throw your rotas on there

[kawikid20o2]

What were they doing?

inner/outer pass side tie rod and ball joint, pass side halfshaft.

guess you need to order a jdm bumper

got to say i love your wagon justin

i think you should throw your rotas on there

Im looking at a JDM bumper right now, its silver and is $79 starting bid 119 buy it now from JHOT. I just emailed for a shipping quote from deton TX so lets see about that.

I dont have rotas, i think you meant the ADR's but yes im prolly gunna have to keep em for snows to clear Brembos:devil:

[kawikid20o2]

The grill is on, just no pic of it. needs paint too look at the bottom left of the chrome part, any suggestions about what color appreciated.

We did attempt to do them in a CCSU parking garage first, but only got one corner done before the piggies came out to chat, so the gas station was the next logical choice :idea:

REALLLLY REALLY REALLLLY STUCK ROTORS AND DAMAGE...Brembos done on one corner only after alotta elbow grease, and randy with the victory swing.

PASS SIDE: still stuck

[Rob T]

Looking good.

[kawikid20o2]

thanks rob!

And to update, lines are done, I changed the knuckle/spindle on the pass side after royally effing up the wheel speed sensor and tone wheel or reluctant hub idk what its called but it has alotta teeth and the wheel speed sensor reads its movement or lack thereof.

Both sides waiting on new caliper bracket bolts and new cotter pins for the ball joint and tie rod nuts from subaru coming in today and hopefull this 4 day brake project will end.

on the plus side it was a good opportunity to add some ride height up front.

[topend]

Smokin' hot man! Can't wait to see it finished :)

[Scoobyless]

worst brake install ever.... over 5 hours (over4 days) spent getting a rotor off only to replace the front spindle

[Judau]

So it's still not done?

Looking good, though, Justin!! Brembos on an old Legacy is just plain and simply sex. :D

[kawikid20o2]

nope they're done...i got pics by candlewood lake, just need to upload.

[kawikid20o2]

[Judau]

Sweet... you should paint your car sedona red pearl... it looks like it in that picture and looks SICK. Haha... but really, the brakes look awesome! Now you need a reason to have them. ;)

[kawikid20o2]

It really does look like SRP i like..allways liked that color. I will most likely end up repainting it, but I didnt want to change the color much. As for the reason to have brembos...autox and i should be starting to work on Reason # 2 shortly:devil:

Are you guys doing this at Randy's?
This car with a swap > *

[kawikid20o2]

yup with your hoist lol...thank you!

your are my new hero

[Judau]

So what motor is going in?


Edit: Nevermind, just looked back and saw the picture I missed. Lucky bastard. :(

Good luck!

[kawikid20o2]

Dont call me lucky till it runs, lol ::Xed-fingers::

I will accept your good luck wishes though, looks like cyl 3 could use it
as i will with the wiring merge.

[Judau]

as i will with the wiring merge.

You're doing it yourself? You're psycho.

:lol:

[kawikid20o2]

I'ts something i really want to know how to do, and I'm confident that its made out to be something crazier than it actually is in reality. plus i was dropped on my head a few times when i was younger.

[BoostinWagon]

Sweet deal...its gonna be sweet when its done.

[Rob T]

Wow, you're going to wire the entire thing with the AVCS and all?
I am going to PM you regarding your N/A 2.5.......

[kawikid20o2]

yup, originally the plan was to have ecs merge the harness but i had a budget cut, or decided to cut the budget rather and tackle that end of the swap aswell.

emailed u back about the N/A ej25

[Rob T]

Well all I have to say is I thought your wagon was awesome before but now you're taking it to a whole new level.

What are your plans for the transmission?

[kawikid20o2]

Im going to take it easy on this one for a while, and then most likely i'll build an RS tranny for it.

[Rob T]

You will prbably get a lot of people telling you it will never last but 2.5RSMatt on Nasioc has had an RS trans with a USDM STI swap for awhile now.

[kawikid20o2]

I have faith in it, i think the RS trannys are more robust than 02-03 wrx trannys anyways. Plus I am not rough on transmissions I shift slow and never launch it.

[kawikid20o2]

Update:

Motor out
Dash out
Ready to pull harness
Exhaust for sale BG/BK, BH guys!

[SBW]

this is going to be awesome once completed, but its still awesome now.

[Rob T]

Update:

Motor out

Saw the car in Randy's driveway as I drove past yesterday. Have fun!

[kawikid20o2]

^Yea it moved a little so we could open the door and not pwn a panel on the STi.

[kawikid20o2]

1hr left to pull the harness it just got too cold and i was sick to finish.

block is back together, just needs acc and timing components and it will be done.

So the changes are:
ARP HEAD STUDS
COMETIC HEADGASKETS
NEW OE OIL PUMP

Besides the fact that your car is on the way to being completely way too badass, Randy's hood is closed and his car is outside... is this a sign?

[kawikid20o2]

Besides the fact that your car is on the way to being completely way too badass, Randy's hood is closed and his car is outside... is this a sign?

Thank you Pete!

Randys car has been outside for a while now but the hood being down just means no more progress. Though i did peak in there for some help with the wiring of my car, nice reference it is.

[Heresmymind]

why dont u tell everyone how that fog projector retrofit worked.

he had the nice expensive JDM ones. then dropped 1 and shattered the glass. so then he took the projectors out and put them in his stock gt fogs and they look like mine!

-B

[kawikid20o2]

So i just pmed Zephyr for a quote on my wiring and he said he would do it for $800 and that would be really well spent as the car would run after 2 weeks including shipping and no mistakes. I am seriously considering this to get the car out of randys hair. Lets see if he would like to chime in on this topic.

ass.

[Rob T]

$800 is a decent price for doing the wiring, especially if it includes the AVCS. Does he help with the reinstall if there are some wiring quirks that need to be worked out?

[kawikid20o2]

Rob i dont know what he does if there is an issue with his merge but he is very well reccomended and has done many similar merges successfully.

But yes his price includes the AVCS and immobilizer wiring.

[topend]

Sweet man!

[Rob T]

Rob i dont know what he does if there is an issue with his merge but he is very well reccomended and has done many similar merges successfully.

But yes his price includes the AVCS and immobilizer wiring.
I know he's good. He wired my buddy Andy's swap for Broken Motorsports. I just know that when Billy was getting the car back together, he mentioned they had a couple of things to figure out and it made me think of what would happen if it was a wiring issue after he was done.

[kawikid20o2]

I think he leaves you with a few last connections and instructions on what to do based on what you see in the car. At least ive been told that by a couple of people who have used his harnesses.

[Rob T]

Very nice.

[subarushortie05]

i am trying to pm you but ur inbox is full :(

btw i just read every post in this thread...what you've done is seriously impressive. im jealous! haha

[topend]

Better finish up soon, so I can drive ;)

[kawikid20o2]

Better finish up soon, so I can drive ;)

hopefully no more that 3 weeks and it will be back on the road. just go easy on my POS tranny:D

[Rob T]

If you haven't decided on def sending the harnesses to Zephyr, Keener from Garage Tuning started his own business, $750 for a merge. It's on RS25.

[kawikid20o2]

I actually dropped it off to Zephyr on sat night this weekend, he was up in Mt Kisco for a TSD rally so that worked out really nicely. Thank you for the information Rob!

pshh Jus-Tin just tell em you are a chronic liar. and that you aren't swapping sh!t... :-D

Im really sorry guys, im just not as cool as you all think. I blew up my motor by trying to increase the compression. You see i thought you could just throw some sheet metal on top of the pistons and that would do the trick. Turns out that causes some mechanical damage in the form of bent valves and mashed heads.

So yea guys, have a great thanks giving while i rebuild.;)

ninja:

Next on the list is 'whip-its' for dry nitrous injection, i think the cream will be good for upper cyl lube.

[kawikid20o2]

Update:

Motor is just waiting for a timing belt, a new camgear, some dumass studs, andddddd then i get to throw the acc.'s on and she will be ready to drop in.
I painted my stock wheels for the snows. Intake mani went on, exhaust mani and helix uppie. Silicone turbo inlet and i started to mess with the exhaust i will have to weld up, this should be fun hopefully as easy as randys was but i doubt it.

I started to pull the front harness and had some hang ups which led me to call Zepher and ask him if it was really necessary. He said i could just pull the SMJ through that gromet myself and leave the front harness in the car. I opted to do this.

anyways time for some more pics for your entertainment.

hey looks great! zephyr has my wiring too. it will be in in a week. all i have heard is great things about him. i cant wait for mine. good luck with the rest. dont use a rs tranny. i would use 4.11 wrx tranny the jdm one. im using the 4.44 one but the 4.11 is usually easier to find and a bit better than that stock usdm wrx trannys.

[Rob T]

Do the stock LGT snowflakes clear Brembos?

I guess your harness is the other one hes got holding mine up:devil:

I am really excited to get the harness back and have this project finally come together. And about the transmission, i will be staying with the stock one untill something pops then i will build it, for now the 4.11's will be nice and i will take it easy on her.

Do the stock LGT snowflakes clear Brembos?
I certainly wish they would, i think subaru 4 pots would clear though.
that interior is SICK yo

thanks man, put alot of work in to it. Definitly gets the honeys!

[C181]

lol wait you swap d00des pay upwards of $700 for wiring harnesses? jeeeeeze that seems like alot for wires...yet i completely understand its no easy task and is important to the cause.

I certainly wish they would, i think subaru 4 pots would clear though.

I don't think they will even fit over the 4 pots unless you have spacers... because like all other Subaru 16" wheels, they are 6.5"... besides the 98-01 RS wheels. Brembos... definitely not. ^^;;

Soo does that mean that you are offering to wire future swaps for much less? Or more that you dont know what kind of time and precision goes into making the swap run like a factory equiped car?

After looking over the cost of the whole project, I am glad to pay for that kind of service. The time Zephyr is saving me for that $800 is well worth it to me so that I am not standing outside in the snow, putting this car back together.

yea idk they are +55 offset so it would be effin close if anything but it is the offset that is in question. On my friends rally car we tucked willwood 4pot under 15" team dynamic wheels.

[Judau]

It'd be nice if both you and Randy would finish your damn cars... :P

ya what pete said lol

justin.. i think if the interior of my car ever looked like yours i'd probably go insane!!!

can't wait to see the finished product!

again...i understand the time it takes and its no easy task (ie. labor = $$ = ya) but i just never looked into a swap and never knew that just wiring costs upwards of $700...take it as a compliment towards your cajones to actually go through with such a task!

[Judau]

06-07 2.5i 16's clear 4 pots!

Ah, good to know! But who actually WANTS 06-07 2.5i wheels? O_o

Im sorry if my reply came off kinda assholeish, i just dont know what background you come from and what you know.

but just FYI Eastcoastswappers charges 1475 to merge an STi harness for a legacy or impreza.

ya what pete said lol

justin.. i think if the interior of my car ever looked like yours i'd probably go insane!!!

I actually may have gone completly insane allready because of this. Ive never in my life had an anxiety attack and just last week i had three while i was working on the car.

Not cool, wonder if my insurance pays for meds for that, i'll only need em for a couple weeks.

[C181]

[Rob T]

I certainly wish they would, i think subaru 4 pots would clear though.


But don't you already have the Brembos on your car? Why did you paint them for snows if you can't use them?

And +1 for Pete that I don't think they clear 4 pots either. Best 16" OEM wheel Subaru made that clears nothing for nice brakes.

[kawikid20o2]

I'm going to swap the brakes back to stock for the winter because I don't want to spend anymore on snows and mounting fees. My stock snowflakes are already setup with snows so that works.

You need JDM tails...

And when are you going to change the name of this thread to Justin's Legacy STi?

[kawikid20o2]

i want to grab a set of jdms but money is tight or spoken for with the swap in progress.

Also i dont know how to change the title...i guess im going to prove to be a real n00b here.

sorry i didnt see you when i was back you got this thing running yet or what

[kawikid20o2]

The car is waiting on a crossmember to get here on the 8th and some exhaust bits are on the way aswell.

Tommy im sorry i was not in the area at allwhile you were here
Im really bummed we didnt get a chance to grab a beer.

Didn't you mod your original crossmember already?

[kawikid20o2]

Yup i did but the engine is sitting about 2" too high in the bay so the xmemeber must be the issue.

[Rob T]

Yup i did but the engine is sitting about 2" too high in the bay so the xmemeber must be the issue.
Did you actually get it running besides though?

[kawikid20o2]

Did you actually get it running besides though?

No i did not start it up, i noticed this issue before finishing everything in the engine bay. The height of the engine is affecting the gear shifter linkage as well so i did not want to mess anything up with the transmission as i cannot take it out of first gear due to this issue.

[kawikid20o2]

Update:

work under the hood complete, just needs fluids and the intake put on.
Dash back in car
DBW pedal bracket fabricated and installed but i broke the pedal haha
Exhaust mocked and tack welded
Xmember changed to 04 WRX Xmember
Driverside axle replaced
03 WRX front seats installed

To do:

Wire Fuel Pump Controller
Finish welding exhaust
Fill with oil
Replace Gas pedal
Put the intake on
BPV on
Charge battery
Bolt starter in
wire alternator
Fill with fluids
Put the radio in and HVAC controller
Turn key

This should be done like... tomorrow, then. :D

We should meet up when it's done and you're in New Fairfield so I can get a ride!

Looks like things are coming along great. Ah thermal r&d... haven't heard that name since my honda days! I'm curious how that can will sound. Good luck getting it buttoned up Justin, hopefully soon.

Thats EXACTLY what i thought!

^and another LOL

YOu gotta add something to your to do list... hand matt the keys :D I'll try not to break the pedal again:lol:

[kawikid20o2]

The TR&D exhaust is the one i had been trying to sell for months and decided to hack it up and make something sweet with it lol.

Right now i just got done connecting all the of the clips under the dash that were responsible for that mess in the last pic and i cant get that fuel pump to go so i think i need to call zephyr up and see what i may have done wrong. I still do have one more ground to attach under the hood that i found today, that may have something to do with it, but im not sure.

[ScrapinSTi]

If its the ground on the drivers side of the bay, you need to hook that up to get fuel pump & ECU response.

[kawikid20o2]

If its the ground on the drivers side of the bay, you need to hook that up to get fuel pump & ECU response.

Nope it wasnt that one, i just forgot to put the actual fp plug in at the top of the access panel. I hooked that up and now the fp kicks on when i put the key in. I thought that was wierd so im gunna go through the diagram again and make sure thats all right. I turned the key today and it cranked but made no effort to start so i think some thing is wrong. Also i found twp connectors that didnt go to anything which i will post pics of later.

[ScrapinSTi]

fuel pump kicks on when you put the key IN or when you turn? Something is seriously crossed if its doing it on key in, because the only thing linked to the key in is usually a chime or keyring light.

[kawikid20o2]

It happends when i put the key in before you even turn it so the acc wire must be swapped or something.

[ScrapinSTi]

yeah... thats an odd one... there is usually almost NOTHING on that circuit... could be something as simple as the tumbler is wired wrong. Did you remove the lock/tumbler/ignition at all during the swap?

[kawikid20o2]

Nah i didnt take that out, just unplugged it. But there are other things effected by this like the headlights stay on with the key out and the driver door trigger circuit seems to think it needs the light on it to be on all the time when it never worked before.

[kawikid20o2]

ok the first 3 pics are of the connectors that i cant find homes for and the following photos are just to update the thread to current.

This connector comes from the STi starter cyl and i cant find a spot for it

[Rob T]

Damn, wasn't it cold out there yesterday?

[kawikid20o2]

yes rob it was, but i started it today so it was worth it!

[kawikid20o2]

ok guys i got it started, ran it for like 45 sec to make sure it would idle, went out got coolant and distilled water, came back and got hose clamps on all the heater hoses and whatever and put the intercooler back and now she wont even try to kick the starter. I am stumped, i changed nothing electrically related until i encountered the problem and nothing that i did change helped.

[ScrapinSTi]

is it clicking like its trying to start? Do you get a CEL before you try to start? fuel pump kicking on?

btw what was the wiring problem?

[kawikid20o2]

the only click is the clutch switch going, no sound from under the hood. The fuel pump goes on as you try to start.

all i did to fix the wierd shit with the pump goin on prematurely was to disconnect a 2 pin black plug that goes to the bulk head from the ign cyl.

Edit: only code was p183 fuel temp sensor

[kawikid20o2]

I got the starter to kick twice today but the car wouldnt stay alive because of the broken gas pedal i had hooked up but everytime it would go and die i had to get out and mess with the wiring to the starter which i though was causing this problem. ( it seemed like the spade was loose that goes on the starter from the that red/yellow wire) So i replaced the spade and had no luck getting the starter to kick once again.

[kawikid20o2]

allrighty shes running but i had to jump the ground from the neg terminal to the starter case in order to get that starter going. Also the idle is a bit rough and it was running ritch but it sounded like only 3 clys were firing untill i reved it so i think it is related to the ground problem.

[tommy]

dam man what taking you so long what happend to 2 weeks ha ha ha

glad you got it turned over today

[kawikid20o2]

Hey tommy no need for that kinda talk you know how it is tryin to get parts around the holidays. It seemed like for a while there every step i took i had to take 3 back but this is the real end with only a little work cleaning connections and welding the rest of the exhaust left to finish it is a couple of days from being %100. And holy shit did i learn alot taking this route.

[tommy]

well im am glad you have your car runing and almost back together we are going to have to trade cars for a day so i can see how yours runs

[topend]

ya buddy :banana:

[snowman87]

I've gotta see this badboy as soon as you get done with it.

[kawikid20o2]

Ok swap sti foz for leggy? Or am i jumpin the gun and u meant that slick azz wagon u gots?

[tommy]

the sick ass wagon i got ha ha ha

[kawikid20o2]

ok ok that thing is definitly a pretty fly ride and wat a deal. I wont have to feel bad if that tranny grenades lol!

[tommy]

ill just steal yours ha ha ha

[kawikid20o2]

Ok guys, i need help, it is running like shit, wayyyy too lean on idle to keep from stumbling as if there was a launch control on for the idle. Once you hit the gas it revs up and is a bit slow to return to the crappy idle but you can tell its lean theres hardly any condensation from the exhaust, it is mad hot and it stings my eyes.

So please any suggestions at this point are welcome as i would really like to wrap this up in the next couple of days.

CELs: (for stuff not plugged in) i have not had any other codes stay these are current after the changes i made this week.

P0037: rear 02 heater circuit volt low
P0245: wastegate solenoid circuit low
P0447: EVAP emissions crap
P1400: Fuel shit
P1446: Fuel shit
P0185: Fuel temp sensor

[ScrapinSTi]

sounds like you arent getting enough fuel pressure...

[kawikid20o2]

Should i throw some lucas fuel sys conditioner and change the fuel filter?

[justboosted02]

vacuum leak?

[tommy]

check fuel rail for tightness and leaks around the fuel injectors. mybe bad o rings too

[ScrapinSTi]

no... If your fuel system is not sealing, it might not be generating enough pressure to run correctly.

When you say it burns your eyes, what is burning your eyes?

[kawikid20o2]

I checked for vac leaks last night today im inspecting the turbo inlet for cracks.

When i said it stings my face i meant the exhaust fumes there was also not condensation coming from it while it was snowing and the temp of the gasses can burn ur hand after just a couple of secs. Its really freakin hot/ lean.

[kawikid20o2]

Double post

Fuckin iPhone

[kawikid20o2]

got a vacuum reading of a low 11-12 in on the rough idle. But it is pretty steady and it only dips if the engine stumbles.

[Dusty B]

got a vacuum reading of a low 11-12 in on the rough idle. But it is pretty steady and it only dips if the engine stumbles.

How many rpms is the motor turning at the rough idle. iirc the normal vacuum reading for a healthy engine is -17-19psi.

[ScrapinSTi]

actually its -17 to -19 hG... :p

[kawikid20o2]

right at 1,000rpm

[kawikid20o2]

I think its the rh intake mani gasket.

[Dusty B]

actually its -17 to -19 hG... :p

Whatever, you know what I meant. I've said it before and I'll say it again.... propane is the best/easiest way to find a vacuum leak.

[kawikid20o2]

dusty, is a normal propane torch good enough to find leaks and what happens when you shoot it in there, stumble, rev? I cant get any hose to respond to the propane and its definitely not empty.

[Dusty B]

The engine rpms should climb when exposed to propane.

I've never had an experience with a regular propane torch. I used to use a 2lb bottle with a metering device that just baaaaaaarely let gas come out. I'd imagine it should work the same, but I believe the idea behind the metering device was so you didn't expose enough gas to an unknown spark/short and cause a big boom or engine fire.

[kawikid20o2]

Allrighty lemme go try this again, the torch is pretty slow so it should be similar but i cant seem to notice any difference at all. Maybe im not getting close enough to the manifold gasket.

[ScrapinSTi]

I've always used Carb Cleaner... Just spray it in there, and if the rpm changes, there ya go.

EDIT: Its possible you have the coilpacks crossed.... The way to tell is the whites go in the front and the blacks in the back. (The wiring clips you racist sons of bitches!)

[kawikid20o2]

i think i need to build a boost leak test kit...i talked to ECS today about the issue and they said that was the way to go for this crap and that my symptoms all made sense if there were some nutty leaks.

Edit: coil packs are good, thank you noah i really appreciate the help man.

[kawikid20o2]

Note: Inlet is an ebay silicone unit

Results of boost leak test:

Got just about 2lbs through the inlet and it started hissing like mad from somewhere under the cly 3 runner and the pcv system.

Question:

Is it bad to have the breathers all hooked up and allowing the crank case to pressurize during the test?

Should i change the inlet back to stock or work on the leaks that are present?

[ScrapinSTi]

Are you stock turbo? Any plans to upgrade? If not and its just a 39, i'd go back to stock. Does the Ebay inlet have the port on it for the PCV system? Some aftermarkets (like Agency Power) dont have it. I know mine didnt.

[kawikid20o2]

Its on the 39 for now but a 20g is in its future. The ebay inlet has a pcv elbow its the last thing before the turbo.

[ScrapinSTi]

it wont hurt to throw the stocker back on. Is it a hard inlet or soft? If its a hard inlet, is it hitting the manifold? I had to hammer a few dents in my hard inlet to get it to fit right.

[kawikid20o2]

It is a soft inlet but never mind everything i did last night replacing vac lines and pressurizing the inlet through mani with the boost leak test kit i made has fixed it. Idle is perfect and its running 22in vac. W@@T!

The worst inlet leak was at the BPV return hose.

[ScrapinSTi]

awesome... good to hear its ficksed!

[Dusty B]

Success!!!!!!

[tommy]

nice congrats now we need vid to prove it ha ha ha

During the ride I used my AP to read Justin's laundry list of cel codes :lol: and used it for a boost gauge. It felt strong on a couple pulls, once you get done what we talked about I'm sure it will be nasty :devil:

Ummm... are those RE070s? In the winter!?!?

And what map are you running? And what intake is that? Doesn't look stock Diameter, so you should REALLY remap for it... even if its just to adjust for the intake and not any boost.

yea that intake might make your car running like ass, if you want pm me all the CEL codes and I can maybe help you out. :toast:

[kawikid20o2]

Intake is a k&n typhoon. The only code i dont understand is p0852.

My winter tires are rt215 haha

[yeaITSaGTI]

was ur car an auto befor you did the conversion?

[kawikid20o2]

Nope haha!

[yeaITSaGTI]

was your harness from an auto legacy?

[kawikid20o2]

Nope the legacy harness was from my car.

[ScrapinSTi]

Do you have the clutch engagement switch wired so you need the clutch to start the car?

[kawikid20o2]

Yup that is working fine

[ScrapinSTi]

are you sure your ECU is running a stock map?

[kawikid20o2]

That i am not sure of.

[ScrapinSTi]

hmmm... well if you want, i can try and pull your map on sunday if you have some time... Not sure of my schedule, but i'll be in Bristol Sunday morning... Not sure if i have my tuning shit in the car or not though...

[kawikid20o2]

that would be great man, i am really curious now to see since it is kinda shakey under boost too.

[yeaITSaGTI]

deff make sure its got a stock map

[ScrapinSTi]

What boost control solenoid are you using?

[kawikid20o2]

it doesnt have on on there, i never got it because i was promised one and then it disappeared. i can get one if that is the issue though.

[ScrapinSTi]

Well you cant do boost control without the solenoid... Do you have the vacuum lines with the pill? How much boost was the AP registering?

[kawikid20o2]

I dont have the lines but i can get all that with the restricter pill from the junk yard tomorrow if i will need it. I was hitting 18.5psi with the Turbosmart MBC i had.

[kawikid20o2]

The symptoms im having are break neck acceleration at half throttle but once it gets passed half it starts to stumble and not pull right. I suppose it could be some effed up map its running that works fine for that turbo on a part load. The thing that is weird is that it will do this on any boost setting with or without the MBC too. It did this when i had the line running straight to the wastegate, just not as angry sounding as with more boost. It kinda feels like it starts to pull timing but im really not sure.

[whitewagon8619]

i cant wait to see this car at some meets. love the setup :rocker:

[ScrapinSTi]

Sounds like its either a map issue, or a fuel pressure issue. Is it a certain RPM is does it at?
