GD Ohio Corn-fed 04 STI

[Murdered Out STi Nerd]

Dude once you get it done I need a ride! That build looks sick!

 

[ANGKlingon]

I couldnt wait!!!! Was able to get some free time tonight so i took the opportunity to get little bit of a head-start for tomorrow removed tmic and under-panel then AeroKroiled the hell outta the exhaust and turbo bolts. And thankfully i chose to install an AOS cuz i found some nasty stuff in the pcv lines.

That last pic looks rough. Alien ejaculate? Makes me want to get a good AOS now!

Here is day one photos. Everything is out! Today i have a few little things to pick up. Then get the headers/up pipe/turbo/tgv/injectors/fuel rails/fuel lines installed.

 

[ANGKlingon]

Its coming together, slowly but surely. Tgv/injectors/rails are on, turbo and up pipe are on, fuel lines are roughly routed. Will finish her up this week.

 

[ANGKlingon]

Its been a couple weeks since last post but I just wanted to tell you all that i finished the turbo swap!!! She made 440 HP 460 TQ at 24 PSI. Definitely miss the subaru rumble since i went equal length!! The Cobb TBE is kinda raspy so where it drops to 2.75" i will be putting in a test pipe with a resonator sometime soon when my bank account recovers. Although the external wastegate completely drowns out any other sounds the car makes, Lol. Big thanks to Jordan at Defined Performance for parts. And Thorne with IPS Motorsports for the tune!!!

 

[Grinder34]

You need to add a mod list to post 1!

 

[Tonytouch]

Great build and numbers. I'm going to see Thorne Friday for my tune! I can't wait. Did you stay at IPS while he tuned or did you drop it off?

 

[ANGKlingon]

I stayed to watch. Really nice guy who appreciate questions about whats going on. Definitely knows his stuff.

 

[Tonytouch]

Awesome glad to hear that. IPS has a great shop I was there once before. I'm looking forward to hanging out and watching him work.

 

[ANGKlingon]

Well everyone, one final update for a while. After not even a month, Ive come to the realization that 440hp and 460tq is what every daily driver STi should be. But, Im still not satisfied, lol. I have crazy over the top plans when i get funding situated. Muuahahahahahaha (mad scientist laugh)

 

[HolyCrapItsFast]

What is your plan!!!!

 

[ANGKlingon]

Its a secret for now, still in planning stages. I will give two hints and thats all for now. And since IGOTASTI is my favorite forum, I will only post project updates here. Hint 1: H6 Hint 2: Automatic

 

[HolyCrapItsFast]

Oh crap! Can't wait!
