Built 2.5L WRX - FMIC Test

[1mrhiphop]

how much did you pay for the intercooler?

[wrxsecks17]

I recognize that turboxs intercooler and green rim combo from a Kingstowne meet several months ago... I think you were the guy I was asking a lot of questions about the Ej257 or Ej255 swap into my wrx wagon... The only thing you told me was ignore the hybrid setup haha

[toyotafreak2000]

fuck the haters man sounds good!



[CobaltSSTC1]

[CobaltSSTC1]

[Bryanx89]

[stugats77]

waste of money top mount more efficient

[XCRunner259]

@stugats77 To a certain extent, and for a certain power level. There are pros and cons to each but what is chosen is dictated by the setup provided.

Nice try though.

[XFoolXProofX]

@stugats77 Sure up to a certain hp/tq number but a TMIC can only support 400-450ish hp. TMIC is going to spool faster and keep the sleeper look but the FMIC depending ont he core size can support XXXXHP with the loss of spool but at 500+ hp numbers you are going to lose i tone way or another.

Is the rattle in the engine a normal subaru sound ?

[XCRunner259]

@iSpySTi What you hear is the valves and the injectors. Normal.

[lascrucez]

@iSpySTi Yes sir, I thought the same thing when I first bought mine. I was like "OMG, WTF, I just bought this car, and already valve tick?!?!"

[XFoolXProofX]

@iSpySTi Tickety tick tick, Tickety tick tick. yeah its normal lol

[WhaDat2010]

[NickBMX1994]

hey what type of exhaust is this? my friend was wondering he has a 2002 wrx

[XCRunner259]

@NickBMX1994 JNA Performance CBE with an Invidia V2 DP.

[NickBMX1994]

@XCRunner259 thankss

[Skywalker875]

How hard was this to install?

[XCRunner259]

@Skywalker875 Not too bad. Cutting the bumper was the hardest and most time consuming part.

Take your time and have someone help you!

[MrTehprogrammer]

I must have that exhaust on mine. Been contemplating the Crawford exhaust but I'm liking the sound of yours. Which one is it?

[albatross1124]

[XCRunner259]

@Disaster646 Damn, those or good numbers on the corn juice!

[WRXSubaru05]

Looking at getting this front mount as well, how hard was it to trim the bumper to fit properly?

[CarAndStuff]

what are the name of those rims? nd what are the offsets?

[XCRunner259]

@CarAndStuff ADR Sokudo or something like that. Were given to me when I bought the car. Offset is something like +48.

[158158cow]

@XCRunner259 Love your subie. I think white or dark grey rims would look nicer. Just my 2cents
