Thanks, that looks like it. Mine snapped in half.

Anyone confirm the part # for the turbo heat shield rear bracket?

 

44021AA012 This it....DP heat shield?

^ TDC 93 Stage 2 + TMIC Real Time Map

 

Just a touch more power due to increased boost. But better at holding off heat soak. I mainly upgraded because the tabs on my stocker started to bend.

^from what I remember i gained about .5-1 in peak psi. bigger core will resist heat soak longer + you don't have to worry about the plastic stock tanks pulling away from the aluminum core.

do you need supporting mods or a tune for a top mount. i have a chance to pick one up (perrin) for 350 or so. but i dont have a tune or a downpipe or anything like that.

 

^ then why bother? If you have no other mods the stock IC is fine.

+1 It's good info.

I can't believe you didn't read the SPT intake reviews. We told you....

^^^ What he said. They'll be okay for a little while, but the rebound sucks so ride is terrible, and they could blow out after 6mo.s to a year.

 

Not 100% true IMO. Had ION sport spec for 18 months on stockers. Not "perfect" for stock KYB struts, but they did ok. And "blow" out really depends on mileage and roads driven on. Yes, firmer lower springs will wear out stock struts quicker, but it will not be over night.

 

Back to wheels....

Similar color combo on a forester.....

More pics added. Post #1013 (Hyper Black Torque)

^ it's "hyper" black. Closer to a chrome gunmetal than black. A really awesome color...in direct sun they almost look chrome in the shade more gunmetal, but always with a high gloss finish.

I think 05-06 GT wheels are around 19.5lbs.

17x8 = @18.5- 18.7lbs. Little lighter than stock 17x7.

I can post now...finally.

Pics don't do the finish justice. Car just looks mean now.

^ I know.....

My '05 came with an engine bay popcorn popper!

^ A small number were made for 2006. I think our neighbors to the north got them. (Oh Canada!)

^ the '05 GT non limited is not 200lbs. lighter. Its only like 65lbs. due to the lack of sunroof and leather.

 

GT = 3300lbs.
