Haha, my neighbors loved me for that. I gave up the hogs a while back and back to stock. Driving around here didn't want any racers or cops to take notice. Once I get my maintenance items done, I'll be looking for a DP and a mellow sounding exhaust.

1/16?? I just got the standard thickness from HD. Just try one, see how you like it, then add more. I think 2 or 3 sounded good when I did it. Actually just leaving the cans off was the best, damn that thing is loud when you step on it.

Good idea

Same here, always a blip to lower the rpms. When it's cold out, taking it out of P to R is a bit stiff, other than that smooth shifting. Though it can shift on it's own (in sport mode) from 2nd to 3rd around 4k if I hammer on the gas. Has always done it since I've owned the car.

I think a few pages back someone used the Rock Auto with no issues. I think I'm going with that: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=860589&cc=1433582 EDIT: Nah, going going for the full axle. $50 shipped can't be beat. SURTRACK SB8047 (SB-8047)

Seems 28397AG000 is only $30 while 28397AG00B is $70 looks to be the same part.

Cool, looks like Rock Auto has it for $40 + $9 shipping. http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=3855753&cc=1433582 Says does not include ABS ring. I don't think any of the Subby axles come with it any way or am I wrong?

What exactly did you end up buying?

^ This is one of the reasons I do like certain OEM parts. The OEM boot kit seems to be around $70 for part: 28397AG00B I do see Rock Auto for around $15 http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=3865884&jnid=4&jpid=0 Would it be a good idea to get another retaining clip/ring for the green cup as well?

Cool, thanks!

Any tips on that?

Becuz OEM.... But seriously, thanks I'll go this route. Looks like the right one. I'll get the part and bring in the core after install. http://www.autozone.com/drivetrain/cv-axle/duralast-reman-cv-axle/subaru/legacy-awd/2007/4-cylinders-2-5l-mfi-turbo-dohc/26123_706373_0_78655/

Finally getting around to replacing my boot on my 07. Have not driven that much on it since it's been leaking. Any suggestions on where to buy the parts. Here are the avg prices I've found using the list provided here and referencing OF. 28395AG04A Grease Package $28.82 - will get another brand. 28323AG010 Boot Ptj82 $24.96 23242GA400 Band Axle Boot $1.52 $5.21 23242GA410 Band Axle Sft Boot $1.49 $5.21 28335AG00A Snap Ring $3.81 $4.55 28333AG000 Cir Ring $5.48 Total $74.23

Now that is a great idea!

All good, I can admit when I am wrong, I digress. Everything I have seen in the past just equated to a hair dryer/bilge pump/leaf blower being hooked up to your car showing the same or negative gains. Phantom does seem to be producing a viable product. Wondering how OPs will compare.

I know small electric motors spin fast, but the larger the blades it's trying to spin the longer it will take to get the momentum, but again probably still a lot faster than the turbo would spin (read: spool). And this makes more sense to reduce or eliminate the lag. I'm going to skip all this bs and go full electric. The Mercedes AMG SLS that was shown on Top Gear was pretty insane, equivalent of 700 hp and AWD!

spin, spool, wtfever. <---- I guess he's not spooling...

That's why I put the hair dryer on cold. Stage 4 hair dryer mod. The other thing is the instant power. It's still a turbine and if the claims of 50k RPMs is true, that would take a bit to spin up.

$600 scam right here. Insane price. You could get the same effect hooking up a hair dryer... I would never attached this to my car. You should do some basic research first, which isn't hard to see it's a fraud. If this was viable, don't you think all the 2.5i's on this site would have done this before. No tune needed either? How does the engine know how to control the a/f with the "added" air flow? No way this thing is going to add 50 - 75hp/tq. I like the comments about this too. You can FEEL the power...oh don't mind the fact I got new headers and new exhaust and tuned and e85....but must be the Phantom. I like the name Phantom as well, as you get a boost of Phantom power, powered by a butt dyno.

That's what I've thought, since all the threads are for 05-06, and I've searched quite a bit for the 07. Thanks!

STICKY! Thanks for this, as I've had to look through the forums for the various locations of possible vac leaks, and now here is it is in one location! I'll be emailing you shortly as well. Typical dumb question. I know about the blue T, but does the 07+ have this blue T? I have looked for it in the past and have not located this. I see the TB and the zip tie on the back of the manifold, in that pic, so I know where the location should be.

Thanks for the assistance and putting up with my BS haha. Got the msg. I removed and re-seated the IC and TB hose, hopefully should clean up the issues. Thanks again, I'll be in touch.

Big thanks to Dave, he's been very patience with me. His tune is great! I've had some vac leaks popping up, which he could tell right away from the LV. TB hose was loose and the lip on it was warped. Also the dreaded turbo inlet had the hole in it. Spent a good 3 hours replacing that last night. Car is so much better. Time to log some more to make sure I've got it all under check. Thanks Dave, highly recommend you and your amazing customer service!! I'll be back once I check all the maintenance stuff again and get the DP going. Oh and my turbo is looking great, no shaft play, no bent fins, no hitting the housing. I'm at almost 85k!

Cryo etune. Didn't realize we had the ability to remove the limit on the red line. I'd be happy hitting 6500.

80k on mine. Front passenger axle replaced (well both), O2 sensor blow to sh!t and replaced, MAF replaced. Brake pads/rotors next. Other that it's been good! Personally I "hammer down" it shifts at 6300 RPMs
