If the car is a 05-06 you should make sure it has a catless up pipe too.

 

 

 

If your going to replace the up pipe, replace the oil return hose too.

 

 

 

make sure you remove the banjo filter on the back of the passenger side head too.

 

 

 

FWIW, I bolt the turbo to the up pipe.

But yes it 05 lgt limited I believe. Not sure if it has catted UP, I'm planning on new shifter linkage (OEM Subaru) its sloppy side movement. Hows that banjo filter look like?

Nope, that’s an aftermarket wide mouth down pipe.

OEM doesn’t have a bung for wideband on the top.

**I got some exhaust leak, not sure were to start now that I saw one nut on the left side of the turbo was loose as s**t. I tightened it back down, but still hearing something on that side. Should I buy new uppipe gasket? Could it be slight tap/knock?? While I had the TMIC, went ahead and regreased my starter shout out to "chato" very informative post!

Anyone have any thought on AWD tuning out by Dallas Texas, Area. ?? Good bad or ugly??

I’d look at jmp’s custom VF46 for sale in the classifieds. Many of us are running his turbos and they are built well.

I've tryna to look for a BNR 16g been reading good stuff on it, but not sure what's it's running cost wise... hmm.

Well the PO, said turbo was replaced 30k miles ago, seems to rattle a bit and whine about 2,300k and then the whistle after 3k rpm,, wanting to buy a good used turbo,, I wanna say it's a 16g

Just had this same issue on my '09, it was a pressure switch for the VVL solenoid on the driver's side bank. Bout $3 from Rockauto. I replaced both switches. They're installed in an upright position, the one on the driver's side bank is right in front and gets wet if you're driving in rain. Over time they corrode internally and then the switch fails to make. When this happens the PCM assumes that the VVL solenoid is not working on that bank or there's some problem with the oil circuit and defaults to a limp mode of sorts - won't allow WOT, etc. It's ridiculous. You can clear that code and drive the car conservatively and it won't return again until you call for enough power to activate the VVL.

If you opt to fix that intercooler definitely boost-leak and/or smoke test when done with the repair. I chose to jb weld and build my own bulletproof kit from Home Depot parts.. has been holding up being hit with as high as 20+ psi.

Change the intercooler. If you are mechanically inclined, yoyou can get back together and seal.

Not sure if it was married to another car, I just got the car not too long ago, @notorious I will go to O'Reilly after work today.

Doesn't want to communicate with ECU? Trying to log as my car is backfiring a lot, dies when coming to a stop. Don't know where to go at this point, check the AP Cobb cable looks good.

I hammed the tmic fingers back down will add some JB Weld, on it later,

While I was in there I zip tied that Infamous t fitting,

If you don’t want to upgrade to a new intercooler (aftermarket or stock), you can crimp those back together and use JB weld as a temporary fix. I ran mine like this with a Stage 2 18.5 psi tune for 30k miles no problem.

Also doesn't help I just found my OEM I intercooler split down near the turbo side.

Cobb AP v2 doesn't seem to be able to log data, would this be an ECU problem? Noobie to the LGT

Well I just got the car from a marine out in Yuma, the car was from the east coast, doesn't seem to rusted out on the bottom side,

But I drove the car from Lubbock, Tx to Dallas and was having some backfire. Once I got to Dallas 6 hours later got a TGV bank 1 closed code

Cleared that with my AP V2, Then had had p0021 code bank 1 running rich, lots of back fire,

So far Ive cleaned my MAF sensor, cleaned my throttle boot sleeve from TMIC to throttle body, found quite a bit of oil residue in there will try and post more pictures after work today. NOOBIE to the turbo EJ platforms,
