cww516 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I'm pretty sure water can come in through the snorkus while driving normally. Another undesired performance enhancement from Subaru Hey man, that's a free upgrade to a water injection system whenever it rains, I'll take it. My DAM shot straight up to 1 this morning in the rain, and I was stuck behind someone on the on ramp. That's practically scientific proof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solgt Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) So after my last time at the dyno I made less power\torque dueb to improper wastegate operation. Well today Jermaine tuned it for the intake and the car gained back torque 320\350. Made less hp in large partdue to 91° plus high humidity. Can hardly wait for the front mount.

solgt Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) Sorry didn't update sooner. So after a new viscous diff, 6puck clucth, head gaskets, finish mounts for the intercooler. Driving is a bit different. With my previous clutch pedal having a push factor of wtf to now being slightly stiffer than stock, but when its grabs it grabs! I mean I'm so used to pushing a heavy pedal that you hear a bang now from how easy it is. Edited May 15, 2017 by solgt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solgt Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 What intercooler core is that? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk TurboXS 15+ WRX front mount. I will say this was not a straight bolt on. Requires holes to be opened, made, pieces to get trimmed. Took me admittedly 2 weeks of trial and error with fitment and mounting solutions. Can't be happier with the components and how it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojorios Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Is the install pretty much like the one described here? http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/5th-gen-legacy-fmic-fitment-install-254936.html Trying to figure out which is easier out of the 2 if there is a difference.

solgt Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 Which can be seen here. So need new holes. Otherwise you'll maybe need a 90° elbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solgt Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 Reused pipe and bov. The mount gaps are visible here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solgt Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 Just 2 pipes for the hot side. Lowered the fuel rails and moved the filler neck for the washer fluid. Removed the battery tray and moved it against the fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC the crash bar on the 08-14 wrx lines up with our cars perfectly, but I do like the way the one he used is somewhat reinforced around the radiator.
