STI7

Hey guys theres a meet up at the base hamilton at around 7pm on Friday if any one is keen. Would be nice to see alot of subys there cheers

Yes it was all fine. 6 months ago when it was running. Not its a strong 1.5

Hi there my v7 is popping/backfiring at idle. It more sounds like a miss. But runs extremely well when driving. Idle rpm stays at 1.5-1.8k. And idles quite smoothly. The pop sound is definitely coming from exhaust side. Have replaced IACV and gasket. Car hasnt been started in 6 months, however now it is on low boost tune atm. Because of this issue. Any one else experienced this before?

Ohk cool will do an oil change. Cheers for the heads up guys!

Oh yikes. Hope its not too bad......

Ohk thankyou kiwi fozzi. Is bore washing extemely bad ? have only cranked it afew times... and to prime turbo.. Also could it possibly be that my maf sensor is now in a 4" intake?

How should I compensate? Turn fuel pressure up?? Also has stock ecu

Just tryed to start my v7 sti after about 5months of building it. Its cranking and sorta running on like 1or2 cylinders but not fully firing up. All ive put in that could relate to this are: Hks 660 injectors Tomei fpr Deatchwerks pump GFB ebc New heat 7 spark plugs 3 guages. Any help please my tune date is coming up...!

Oh ohk mean Dtech 1 - 0 CDM

I am in two minds about who to choose.. has any one had any experience with these two tuners? Cheers

Ohk ive hit up Dynotech so waiting on a reply. Hope I can still get a tune this year! Fingers crossed

Whats possum bourns prices/services like?

Oh I see now haha. He (soichi) sure did cut me off in the emails!

Torque? Gcp? Raijin is fully booked out hence why im seeking elsewhere

Ohk thankyou im just waiting on a reply from him.. man all along I thought that these were allgood just for a road tune. You learn something new everyday

Oh true? I will try hit him up and see where he got his tuned. Can I just adjust the fpr to the injectors specified pressure and itl be fine? I havnt driven the car yet. But just waiting on a few things then tune

Ohk so ive just been told by St Hi Tech that they cannot do an ecu reflash for me, with the the mods I have. Which are: Master power 545r Hks 660 injectors Tomei fpr Deatchwerks pump GFB ebc Full custom twisted exhaust manifold Fmic Tial gate Tial bov Do I actually need an aftermarket ecu for this?? Because my wallet tells me I dont... help/advice/knowledge appreciated!!

Should I possibly consider him over a dyno tune then? More bang for buck?

What about the guy who's famous for his impreza road tunes? Raijin performance or something? Cant quite remember but I know hes been mentioned quite afew times..

Cheers bro haha. Im worried about that flexi pipe now lol. And yeah might check out dtech

Oh mean im in hamilton

Yeah just got sinco flanges. Tbh I just wanted to make something that looked cool haha. Well might try shoot for something closer to 300kw without getting my hopes up. Oh true about the flexis!? Ohk well I hope mine will be alright haha. Any recommended tuners?

Cheers for your imputs guys. Ohk I didnt know if the stock internals could handle 300kw? And joker yes I plan to fix that intake haha just thought Id take a progress shot. Yeah wish I just stuck to stock location. It was a biiiiatch trying to fit that turbo haha

Ohk so im feeling abit dumb at the moment, but im in way too deep to back out. I am fairly new to subaru and went and bought a stock v7 sti. After a while I decided it wasnt fast enough/lost its puff, and being a fabricator thought that it would be sweet makeing all of the exhaust system aswell. however now that im nearing a tuning date. Im beginning to wonder 'was it all worth it?'. With a power figure of 250kw atw in mind, have I just gone and wasted money on stuff that was not necessary? My power mods are as follows: Master power 545r Tial 38mm Tial bov HKS 660cc injectors Custom sch10 exhaust manifold Custom 2.5" uppipe Custom 3" exhaust Tomei Type S fpr Deatchwerks pump GFB gforce 2 ebc Fmic Thats what I can think of off the top of my head. Some advie and/or criticism would be appreciated!
