I Donated thefultonhow Posted March 5, 2013 I Donated Share Posted March 5, 2013 what the hell is wrong with you? you dull fecally and rectally obsessed excuse for an insurance salesman.

Thanks given for saying what everyone was thinking but nobody had said yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaspGT Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 All I know is that I'm grateful for being a part if this forum... Even a small part. I can have the shittiest day ever; ie: work sucks, car breaks, sick, etc. whatever. I pull up the forum, shoot the shit, feel better. It's great. Anyhow, @ LosAngelesLGT, staying stock is never an option. For me, that could never end in happiness. As far as exhaust goes... How could allowing my car to breath ever be a bad thing? I'm not interested in headers so I chose a cross pipe instead. I'm upgrading my turbo to a 20G and my fuel system to accommodate. I was told that If u go with the upgraded exhaust manifolds you lose the signature Subaru rumble... Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated thefultonhow Posted March 5, 2013 I Donated Share Posted March 5, 2013 As far as exhaust goes... How could allowing my car to breath, ever be a bad thing. I'm not interested in headers so I chose a cross pipe instead. Would be fine, if the crosspipe actually caused any gains. As it is you're just losing heat shielding and potentially melting your undertray. Which, BTW, you need to keep unless you go FMIC. I was told that If u go with the upgraded exhaust manifolds you lose the signature Subaru rumble... Is that true? Sorta kinda. Unequal-length (UEL) headers (what the car has now) will keep the boxer rumble fully intact, but won't provide much of a power boost. Also, the cheap ones are prone to cracking. Equal-length (EL) headers will get rid of some of the boxer rumble, but your car still won't exactly sound like a Honda. But they are the only headers to make an appreciable power boost, although not the most cost-effective one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaspGT Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 I was thinking the same thing (heat wise) when I spent 10 hours on Sunday replacing all my faulty bushings with the WhiteLine kit. The two small heat shields on the right and left iron joint pieces came off in pieces. I do however have a shit load of Thermo Cool heat wrap. I was planning on wrapping the Up Pipe, Iron joints, cross pipe, and DP. Then I'll coat it with high temp bonding spray. Pretty sure that'll save the splash shield and keep the temp down. Thoughts?

SCASEYS Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 http://www.ebay.com/itm/GrimmSpeed-Up-Pipe-Subaru-WRX-STi-Legacy-GT-Forester-XT-Legacy-Turbo-02-/300752351118#vi-content this the legit one? or better to use a different site to purchase off of? It's your money, but I would recommend buying from one of our site supporting vendors. Most will accept PayPal too that looks legit I donated to LegacyGT.com which allows me to have this nifty signature. If anything SCASEYS posts ever becomes a sticky i'm gonna light this whole place on fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandLuke12 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 thank you, will look into the vender sites, thanks SCASEYS appreciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I got is legit 100%. SCaseys is right, though. UnderDog carries a lot of GrimmSpeed products and he seems like a pretty stand up vendor. I should have purchased mine from him as well, I'm just an EBay junkie... But look at the hell I just went through purchasing the wrong one first! Buy from one of these vendors and get the right part the first time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolHandLuke12 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 alright, you guys convinced me lol, i just love ebay, but yeah imma need an up pipe boost gauge, and pretty soon a turbo so ill be hitting up these vendors for lots..once the funds come in $$$$$. thanks for the posts, appreciate it.

I Donated thefultonhow Posted March 6, 2013 I Donated Share Posted March 6, 2013 For the boost gauge, look at the Gaugetek VBG1. Expensive, but worth it. Plus, lossol (the developer of the VBG1) owns a Legacy GT himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Donated Too sigmafour Posted March 6, 2013 I Donated Too Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yes - I hurt my thumb that day but I didn't mind because I was so happy to get my JDM Sti performance gauge pack that I bought off Craigslist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated thefultonhow Posted March 6, 2013 I Donated Share Posted March 6, 2013 From what I've heard, Prosport has crappy QC, and Glowshift stuff is made by the same OEM as Prosport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
