The Catch Can I saw as necessary as I pulled off my intercooler to change my trans fluid and the oil lines were disgusting. I know thats 4 yrs of build up, but I was disgusted. In the near future I plan to run all new Samco hoses and a Koyo radiator in which case those oil lines are going to be cleaned out as well. My radiator isn't in terrible need of a flush at the moment so I can push that back 2 or 3 months and replace the radiator instead. Plus, the hose that connects the turbo to the intercooler is a stiff plastic that's a pain in the ass to work with. Near future (2 - 4 months) mods include:

06-07 WRX 4 POT calipers
Koyo Radiator
Samco hoses
Turbo XS TMIC
Deatschwerks 750cc Injectors
Walboro 255lph Fuel Pump
Okada Projects Plasma Direct Coils
Perrin Boost Control Solenoid

Oil Cooler I'm still up in the air about.
I'm also looking to pick up a Slowboy racing GT-12 turbo off the guy i got my ARC box from, so I may get that and let it sit for a bit until after I get these other things moving.

I have the the intake laying around somewhere still. Even the snorkus and piece that runs in the fender. It's all on my floor with my old exhaust parts.

I'm running the ARC box right now. I can get a Turbo XS TMIC off a friend who never used his for half of retail. I couldn't really justify running a BOV on my car. The stock BPV is fully capable of handling up to 20psi. You can do a 20cent mod on a stock BPV that'll allow it to handle much more. Check it out Here.

The guy that tuned my car told me if I had upgraded injectors and fuel pump, he could get me much more boost, around 21psi, in which case, the BPV mod is necessary.

With the BOV, you'll be running rich. The MAF meters the blown off air wrong and the ECU will cause the injectors to just dump fuel into your cylinders.

I like the sound of the turbo spooling up rather than the loud blow off. People ride with me or next to me and are like, "What's that sound?" or "Do you have an exhaust leak?" Then give them a WOT pull and show them the boost gauge and they just pull their foot up and chew on it for the rest of the ride. I think the loud BOVs sound too Fast and Furious for me, IMHO. That's me and to each his own.

Well, last night was almost the end of my WRX and a beginning of jail time but a few police officers stopped that... I kinda just need to vent here so you will all hear about my night.

I decided to go with a buddy to the local car meet every Sunday night. He's new to the scene with his '08 GTi and I wasn't going to leave him hanging. To set the tone of the area, I live in moderate to moderate high income area, a lot of Mercedes and BMWs, yada yada. So kids show up in daddy's corvettes and such. A kid showed up in a Ford GT. The other half was crappy Hondas (I'm still a honda fan, but when I say crappy, I mean rust buckets with huge wings, wide body bumpers only, enormous exhausts, you know the deal)

Anyway, to make a long story longer, I got bored and decided to dip out. So did a stupid cunt in a DC Integra. She fit in with the rest, slammed to the ground on cut springs, HUGE exhaust that served no purpose. I was just driving because It's not worth my gas to try anything with her. At a light, 2 cars in front of me, 1 in front of her, she almost stalls out, then jerks forward to almost rear end the car in front of her. The guy in front of me isn't moving. I go around him, then go to pass dumb cunt and she pulls into me, nearly hits me, I almost swerved right into the beginning of a divider and I finally pass her, completely unscathed because I'm nice like that and she gets right on my ass. I stop at a light, she stops next to me and starts saying shit. I just smile

Here's where I lost it. She gets out and spits in my car. I open my door and her boyfriend gets out. The a patrol car blocks us in from the rear and one appears out of no where to block us in the front. She starts to run her mouth to the cop about me and he says (and I laughed) "Do me a favor and shut up and get in your car. You too son(boyfriend)" Cop walks up to me, asks me if I'm ok, checks my car, blah blah. She starts screaming from her car and the other cop yells, "He said keep it zipped!" The cops proceed to tell me that they saw everything and the minivan that she in fact almost rear ended was an undercover cop who patrols the highway Sunday nights due to the kids in the car meet. I look to my right and see it park on the side of the road, 99ish Dodge caravan with flashing lights. The patrol car in front of me pulls forward for me to leave. A third patrol car shows up to help with the other 2 for some reason and that was my cue to exit.

Now I feel much better and I hope you all felt like you were there with me. Stupid kids. I always enjoyed going to Subaru meets because the guys there are more mature about their driving and how they act. I should have left this place as soon as I saw the kids there. I can't stand that shit and stupid asses like them ruin it for everyone else. Btw, I'm not saying my Subaru meets are above any that may be sported through this forum, I've actually really wanted to go to a JDMU meet but you're all in Cali. It's just kids like them have no regard for anything. Die

I always get people asking me what they are. I always get the question, "Are they speakers?" So I say, "Yes, I'll try them for you". So they'll sit in front of them and I'll blow the horn and they'll shit their pants. They are quite loud. I use my horn often and everyone in front of me that has the pleasure of hearing these beauties jump every time. Best $50 I ever spent.

Question. This may sound kinda n00bish, but B Pipe? What's the function? Your car is the first time I've ever seen / heard of it.
