  1. 2010-2012 LGT Case Halves are different from all other EJ motors.
  2. I have never seen a factory equipped fumoto valve. On anything.
  3. Low flow rate plus protrusion into oil pan. Pan cannot be completely drained.
  4. 5250 Performance We have permanent solutions to pass emissions at your modified power level. No tricks, just using the right parts.
  5. Fumoto valve allows solid debris (like metal particulate) to accumulate in the oil pan....
  6. Facebook destroyed forums and the younger generation doesn't know how to research... anything.
  7. Is there a 15yr club? What about a reunion? I think I still have an LGT.com staff polo shirt somewhere... Thinking about doing a low mount + stock location compound turbo setup as a shop build if I can't find a customer to do it for.
  8. You have a magic car that self fills with gas. You were parked on a hill.
  9. There is no downside to using the resistor, but there is a downside to not using one. When the EGT sensor is removed and no resistor is installed, it throws a CEL. This CEL can be blocked, but blocking a CEL does not change how the ECU reacts to a missing sensor. The 2.2kOhm resistor tells the ECU that the EGT sensor is reading something like 800 degrees. This is a happy temperature and the ECU does nothing extra. With a missing sensor, the ECU will reference the highest temperature in the EGT tables and use a fuel trim to adjust. If you are un-tuned, or your tuner did not modify this table, it will mess up your fuel trims, possibly causing the engine to run funny or cause poor fuel economy. By installing a $1 resistor, you prevent second guessing your tuner and stupid fueling issues related to a removed component. I have never seen any reported cases of the resistor mod causing problems of any kind.
  10. Tuned the car for the new owner. This is at 5500 feet above sea level on E85. Peak of about 23psi boost. Fuel pressure was dropping off and IDC's at 98%. There's more left in her. New owner might come back and pay me to work on my old car. E85 3rd Gear HPTQ.pdf
  11. Moving the FPR reference from the side of the manifold to a more central point is another known issue that COBB has addressed. It will make the motor run smoother.
  12. Just did this. You should finish the re-assembly instructions and include the new Orange Spring. There is also a restrictor orifice that comes with the kit. TransGo wants you to install it in the transmission, not the valve body. I assume we don't use this for our cars? I also assume we're not supposed to drill out the plate holes with the included drill bits. Is this correct?
  13. This issue has been diagnosed and a solution found. It involves replacing the Fuel Pressure Regulator and some fuel lines. Reference 08+ wrx issues.
