  12. Im not sure what the turbo is, cant see. Im not verry mechanically minded, may be an up-pipe leak? Not sure what that is aye. I have a boost tap set to 10psi atm. when the boost kicks in and im flat foot, sometimes it hesitates on acceleration. If the turbo what 2 big. what would be the next steps to insure that my car would accomodate that turbo nicely, and reduce lag? what are the basic steps 2 reduce lag for a starters?
  13. Gidday, Got a v4 single turbo sti engine in my WRX wagon. Top mount intercooler, Possibly a bigger turbo, has a pod filter. Stock apart from that. To me it seems like the boost take forever to kick in from launch. It doesnt start pulling until 4500 revs. Is this normal??? What can i do to lower the boost lag. Any help will be sweet. Ta, DJ
  14. Well after aftermarket parts fail work (gave it a go . . didnt work), think you would try genuine parts? Mechanic didnt. . . Then lost all my oil again. . . Had to take it 2 him for the 3rd time. . Told him to use genuine parts. 3 Months on no problems. . . Dont mind paying for genuine parts. What i dont want to do is have 2 take my car back to a mechanic 3 bloody times. . Time = Money
  15. Well hasnt been using oil since we used the genuine parts. mechanic trying to be cheap, wont go back there.

Thanks - DJ
  19. Ok, talked to the mechanic, camseal was aftermarket going to get him to use genuine. also the leak is only coming from the cam seal so i have been told. Cheers
  20. Ohh ok, i'll have to double check with him. I was told he specialised in subaru but im not sure, but yea they are genuine parts.
  21. Hey, Just wondering if anyone has had this problem before and knows some possible causes. A while back the car started leaking oil. I took it to a mechanic the main problem was the cam seal leaking. He fixed it and was all good for about 100km's then smoke comming off the exhaust manifold The bloody thing has done it again. I took it back and he came to the conclusion that he needed to glue the seal in (mechanic mate of his told him that was why is crapped out) i mean im no mechanic but it seems a bit odd to glue it in, i maybe wrong. Sure thing, 100km approx later . . same thing. Im hoping someone has had the same problem and can tell me how the resolved it, because i really feel i need to tell this mechanic how to do his job or i'll never have my car for more than 2 days. Thanks, DJ
