Rhitter Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Did you use spacers to raise the manifold up to fit the larger intake? In for your smog experience next year My OBXT build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeneverwinter Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Did you use spacers to raise the manifold up to fit the larger intake? In for your smog experience next year no spacers on the manifold, but it may have helped if I had. I am using the 2.5in" inlet 1.5 xt-r. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukeneverwinter Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 YouTube link to a drag run. This was a couple months back. 8.23ish was best run? Babying 2nd and 3rd gear shifts. Also.... 6k-ish clutch drops on Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ may be a bad idea. This was thre days ago. Broke a rear axle.

stocklgt Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hows the 5MT holding up? Nice build, sleeper status for sure! I just finished my build too, like you i threw my wallet at it. How do you like the E85 flex kit? Considered running one but went with meth instead because E85 is scarce in Queens NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished my build too, like you i threw my wallet at it. How do you like the E85 flex kit? Considered running one but went with meth instead because E85 is scarce in Queens NY. so far, the 5mt is doing great. I thought it was the trans that grenaded, I am really pleased it was just an axle. according to the website I saw the legacy/outback gears are the same strength as the STI ones. So it should last, hopefully. The Flex Fuel kit works as advertised. Fill up with any combo of fuel and it adjusts on the fly. After I get a bigger intake (sf tech BIG maf), and aftermarket exhaust, I am going back for a retune. I'll also have an external oil cooler installed by that time. All just to protect the engine in long haul driving, and abusive situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukeneverwinter Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 How has that recirculating EWG flex tube held up? So far so good, recently crawled under there to replace a broken CV boot and didn't notice anything awry. It's in such an annoying spot to check for leaks, but I do need to crawl under the car again. I am really curious about it, and need to check it more thoroughly than just a visual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xt2005bonbon Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 OP, you should try to get your hands on the BTS suspension kit if you can. These are quite rare and a bit $$. But it will help with handling quite a lot IMO, and you can retain ride height (or even slightly increase it as I did) with some spacers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unless the yenn gets worse or dollar gets stronger, i'd rather spend the extra and go semi custom Ohlins.

pjcampbell Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Just saw the video for this on reddit. Is this on a draw through MAF tune? (Not speed density)? I am working on a "similar" build (sort of...) with EJ253 heads and a gigantic supercharger in an 05 Outback. I had just assumed I'd need a PPG gearset in the 5MT. I don't really launch my car though. That nearly cuts the budget in half! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really launch my car though. That nearly cuts the budget in half! This is on speed Density, the MAF is still there, but mainly for IATs and keeping the filter out of the hot engine bay.. My gearset has been holding up fine. I did just grenaded a rear differential though. Using it as an excuse to go 6speed with r180 rear. SO i'll have a 5speed for sale soon!

And because I live in San Diego, I drove them to Bilstein and they are hopefully going to revalve them for Rallitek rear springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
