  1. I found it. Had forgotten that it was just chilling under the intake with the harness plugged into it.
  2. I have had a Cobb turbo inlet pipe on my car the last couple of years. I don't like it, and I'm about to change it out for a Perrin unit. There is a part that the stock unit has that was not used for the Cobb unit. It's a white plastic piece (kind of L-shaped) that goes on the back of the pipe, near where the turbo is. Can anyone tell me what the part number is for the white plastic piece? I think it's the crankcase breather? I could have sworn I kept this when I put the Cobb inlet on but I cannot seem to locate it, and I need one. The Perrin hooks up the same way as the stock inlet. Thanks!
  3. I am really thinking about this STI rack swap. How difficult was it to do, and do you think it was worth it? My issues may just be steering related honestly.
  4. I will probably need to replace one of my front Koni's as one of them is not getting full adjustment and is binding at almost one full turn. How do you like the result? I love my car, and I love the power but the handling at speed leaves something to be desired. It's so floaty it scares me.
  5. A while ago (I should have bookmarked) there was a thread I believe on here where a guy converted his Outback XT to Legacy GT suspension. I'm interested in possibly doing this. I was looking and KW makes a set of coilovers for a Legacy GT and not an Outback and I'd rather remove spacers and all from the Outback and effectively turn it into a Legacy. Does anyone remember the thread I'm referring to?
  6. Okay, this makes sense. It seems that nobody has had to use these Doorman connectors. But just so I'm aware, these would be used to connect a new (non stock) flexible rubber fuel injection hose to the stock hard lines?
  7. I have not, no. No idea what was done before I got the car. Are you thinking one of the speed sensor gear things might be off or incorrect?
  8. Are those connectors showing in this picture? The best I can tell, everything in there is a barbed connection, except for the stock connections. Fuel injection clamps sure, but I don't see the other connectors mentioned in the list of items to do the install.
  9. Got a reply this time. I must not have submitted the question correctly the first time (from my phone). Here's the reply I got:
  10. I finally got my ABS issue fixed, so cruise control is working again. Does it seem like cruise control on a LGT is a bit jerky? Every other car I've owned has a smooth cruise control. I'm wondering if it's because this car has a lot of power or what. Curious what your experience and thoughts are.
  11. Thanks! I noticed this flat metal adjuster that Koni makes. I might get one! https://www.koni-na.com/en-US/NorthAmerica/Products/Accessories/KNOBS/
  12. Just removed the cargo area pieces and I can ALMOST get the Koni adjuster knob on. I even Dremel'd out a notch but still couldn't get it on. I don't want to notch any bigger because you'd be able to see it over the carpet. Dang! So close, yet so far.
  13. I've searched and cannot seem to find an answer to this. I have the Koni inserts on the front of my wagon, and the regular shocks on the back. They have adjusters on the top of the shock that you can adjust the firmness with. The front is no problem because the adjuster knobs stick out of the top of the shock tower. But the rears are buried under the car, so adjustment is not very easy. How do you wagon owners deal with the rear shock adjustments? Do you put a hole in your cargo area? Or do you really take the shocks out every time you want to adjust. Side question: one of my front Koni's only has 1 full turn of adjustment and the other side has 2 full turns. Any ideas what the issue could be? Supposedly they are supposed to have 2 full turns.
  14. Hey there.  Quick question.  You mentioned in a thread (STI fuel pressure regulator) that you used the vacuum line from the intake manifold to feed your boost gauge.  Can you tell me which gauge you ended up using?  And do you recommend any vacuum port plugs that don't suck?  I'd like to cap off the one on the manifold and use the BPV one for the new FPR.  Thanks!

      I ended up using the Innovative one, but honestly there's better out there.  As for source, under the manifold there is a port that gets input from manifold body instead of individual runners, maybe it is the BOV one, it's been a minute :).

  15. I am planning to do this mod at some point but I cannot seem to locate any good vacuum port plugs that folks say are acceptable. I'd rather not plug the manifold port with a rubber one that will only start leaking. Are there any vacuum port plugs that are acceptable? Considering just using some vacuum hose, a bolt with silicone and a zip tie. And what exactly is the function of the Doorman Fuel Line Connectors (800-120) and how do you use them? Is my red arrow pointing to one of the Doorman connectors?
