BBPeik Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 Thats right Ladies and Gentlemen. 7 hours and two engines removed. No problems and all went super smooth. Glad to have that done though, its Beer thirty for sure.. Here are a few pics and GTeaser I put a couple of the rack. Let me know if you need closer ones as I do have two LGT's minus the engine, so I should be able to get you what you need. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160410_135949_zpscvt3nvtm.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160410_150943_zpsmpqawxkj.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160410_151531_zpsysiemawq.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160410_133917_zpsjxi4heq4.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160410_133912_zps98szn0ff.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Well I managed to get my motor into swannee's car today. First step was to mount his factory clutch onto my block and after that wrestle it into the car. As always it was tough getting everything to line up, but got it done in the end. Tomorrow hope to have it running so he can come and pick it up. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160416_134317_zps1lpnfp4s.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 Spent the afternoon finishing up Swannee's car. Got everything done at about 3. Started right up first try no problems. Of course his car had a stage three map and after the warm up cycle the car was not too happy about that. I reflashed it to the OTS stage 1 map and it has been purring like a kitten ever since. Just a few test drives and it will be all ready for him to come pick up. 1 down and 1 to go. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBPeik Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 So I took Swannee's out for a test drive tonight. Ran really nice. I had never ran the Cobb OTS map before. Man does it blow compared to a stage 1 pro tune. Definitely glad I went the pro tune route when I first got my AP. Overall a success though. Motor seems good and all is well.

BBPeik Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Oh yeah I also shipped my clutch back to Summit today. I will be ordering some goodies soon and then as soon as I get the clutch back the fun will really begin. I gotta say a huge thanks to Swannee for making all this possible. What an amazing opportunity. Both on the engine side and just for the chance to do a motor swap. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBPeik Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 Ordered injectors, Fuel Pump and DP today. My new clutch should be shipping out soon as well. I am sending my Flywheel out tomorrow to be resurfaced so things should be coming together soon. Went with Cobb 725cc injectors, DW200 FP and Invidia Catted DP. I am kinda shooting for a still somewhat Daily driver friendly but still pretty fierce combo. We will see how it works. My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 Look what showed up from UPS today. Of course my wife found it on the porch. She just smiled and said " Looks like I get to go to the spa again". I guess fair is fair. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160421_191814_zpse9ex6lss.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 By the way. If I am merging the Invidia into my stock exhaust, will teh included gasket work or do I need to get a special exhaust donut? Thanks in advance. My someday I will be done with it thread.

blklgt05 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Not planning for flexfuel in the future? ID1000 + DW300 will do along with Delicious Tuning's FF kit. mod journal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarang Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 By the way. If I am merging the Invidia into my stock exhaust, will teh included gasket work or do I need to get a special exhaust donut? Thanks in advance. You'd need one of these: http://www.grimmspeed.com/3-downpipe-adapter-aftermarket-dp-oem-subaru-catback/ I can't remember if it came with the gaskets or not, so you might need those too.

BBPeik Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thanks I will get one of those. No on the flex fuel. If I could get it here I might, but I think there is only one station in SD that has it. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBPeik Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 So Swannee just picked up his car. I guess he is in for a slower ride home than he is used too. Thanks again Swannee and have a safe ride home and be safe at work tonight. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBPeik Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 I installed the Cobb 725cc injectors in the motor tonight. Pretty easy overall. Of course it is much easier with the engine out. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160425_190116_zpsnwdozehq.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Clutch showed up today and I had my flywheel resurfaced. This weekend I am going to get the fuel pump installed and then motor install comes after that. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160428_195202_zpsuzlzgrqw.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Went ahead and installed the DW200 fuel pump today. Super easy, only took about 30 minutes. Plug and play to which was really nice. DW makes a real quality kit. For all those thinking about your filter and 60k maintenance. The first pic is my old pump with 75k miles to give you an idea of how dirty yours might be. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160501_090154_zpsr29y9mbb.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160501_091907_zpsae3cfuy8.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted May 14, 2016 Author Share Posted May 14, 2016 Well tomorrow the engine is going back in come hell or high water. I picked up my DP today with the new O2 bung welded in, engine and cabin air filters, some total energy 9000 5w-40, and that is all I had left to get. So hopefully it will be mostly back together tomorrow. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBPeik Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 Made quite a bit of progress today. Had to do quite a few modifications to fit the third O2 sensor in there, but in the end it all worked out great. Today I got the clutch installed, motor in the car, exhaust manifold and turbo mounted, exhaust mounted, Perrin Steering dampner lockdown installed, and the wiring for the wideband through the firewall. Not as much as I would have liked, but a good day overall. Oh yeah I also changed the oil on my wife's expedition as well. That kind of cut into my subie time. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160514_124533_zps6nv5a24g.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160514_132627_zpstmkghma0.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160514_164144_zps3hqkolia.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160514_170923_zpsydvwuivx.jpg http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160514_183752_zpszsznt9mg.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 Well Just finished everything. Fired right up first try. Runs great. I should be getting a safe map shortly from my tuner, and then it will be a couple weeks of tuning. After that it should be all good to go. I still need to wire up the wideband as well, but thats it. http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah113/BBPeik/20160515_162738_zpsuow64yck.jpg My someday I will be done with it thread.

BBPeik Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 So I just loaded the basemap that I got from Bren. First impressions are good. Just drove it a bit, but definitely more boost than my stage 1 tune, and this is just the base map. Idle is a little high, but again just the base map. I will be mounting the wbo2 this weekend and then I can start logging for the tune. So all is well so far. One thing I did notice that was weird is that the new injectors are quite noisy compared to stock. I even had my wife come out to rev it while I listened and it is for sure the injectors. Run great, just noisy. My someday I will be done with it thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 You'll notice with the forged internals that the sound will be more of a clack sound than a tick a first until its runs a few minutes and things expand. Don't know how full builds you've been around to hear. Sometimes it reminds me of a diesel type sound or if you know anyone with 04-05 f150 they have a very distinct :tick You'll probably here the initial prime of the engine more so with those injectors/pump. All of those are good sounds for the morepowers!! Just keep that sound in your mind so you know when something seems off/odd. Hope the tuning goes well!! Quite the adventure for you both and glad everything is tiptop and working well. ...come help do mine great way for you to get away for a weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haruichi808 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I have a question bout that ticking noise s2ubaru said Since I installed my invidia catless dp at cold starts I hear a faint ticking sound coming from my dp area till it warms up,is that normal and what you were talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
