jedd Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I got my mid pipe adaptor last week from Rallyperfomance. This enabled me to use my WRX UP,DP and mid pipe. The part was less than 100.00 and everything fit fairly well. I have to put it back on the lift tomorrow as the firewall needs to be pushed in a little farther to accomodate the rex DP. I also need to fabricate a longer bracket to hold the midpipe. No big deal considering I saved a boatload. I was going to ebay the whole exhaust, glad I didn't. As far as performance, I don't know yet. I am being ginger until I get things right. I can however say that spool is reduced to nil and I am chomping at the bit to stomp on it. Oh well patience is a virtue... NOT! I'll update tomorrow night. It's a f-n blizzard here anyway! April showers my arse! Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedd Posted April 26, 2005 Author Share Posted April 26, 2005 Well I got everything tightned down yesterday. What a difference. Smoother power. A little throatier and easier to drive with the decreased lag. I have not smelled the raw gas I have heard some people talk of. Final fitment is great.

I tried to wack mine back a bit to accomodate an Invidia DP with no luck whatsoever. Otherwise it would seem to line up pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxerGT2.5 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Let me know how it goes with denting back the firewall. I tried to wack mine back a bit to accomodate an Invidia DP with no luck whatsoever. Otherwise it would seem to line up pretty well. There is something very weird about the difference in clearance from the MT to the 5EAT. I have the TXS DP which is probably the largest there is and I have like 1.5in of clearance from the firewall. Rao can attest. OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to wack mine back a bit to accomodate an Invidia DP with no luck whatsoever. Otherwise it would seem to line up pretty well. We pushed in the firewall as best as possible. We also put a couple of dings in the DP. It is still pretty close, but I have not heard any knocking yet. Ken @ RP said that some will fit better than others. Mine is a MT.

jedd Posted May 3, 2005 Author Share Posted May 3, 2005 I did have a check engine the first day. I was cruising at 60 for about 10 minutes. It always seems to happen when I have been maintaining speed for a while. Even on my wrx with the cel fix. I reset the CEL and it has not come on for over a week now. (I probably just jinxed myself) I do hear a little flutter here and there. Not all the time. I really hear the turbo spool with the Perrin flat panel, up and dp. Now I need my AP. Can't wait.
