I drove back from Auckland to whitianga like that and it still seems to run alright, fingers crossed haha.ive been flat out with work, hoping to smash out a big chunk of the work this weekend, put another (landscape) vlog up on YouTube
-
Just scored some forged pistons, don't know much about them yet. Anyone got any idea on the sort of power this setup should make?
-
Usually my camera records in landscape which ever way I hold it. I didn't realise the setting was off. I will endeavour to film in landscape for the rest of my build haha. Will definitely film the entire process, need a tripod or something

Sweet got turbos and downpipes off yesterday, primary was disintegrated.do I actually need to replace oil return? Is the standard secondary oil return too small? Looks like a prick of a job getting that out haha Sorry about my video work haha I'm no youtuber

To best to of my understanding it does offer on the fly tuning, it just utilises the factory sensors and loom.however the denso sounds like a pretty kick ass factory computer, how awesome of Subaru to allow us such control over our cars from factory. I got this car for a set of mags straight swap, with blown primary.smoking up a storm. And it just happens to be exactly what I want. I saw the car on Facebook and my mate who was down visiting picked me up with the mags and dropped me in West Auckland with the mags and my tools at this Tongan dudes house. I disconnected the primary oil feed an blocked it, and limped 2 hours home with no boost haha.good mission

Ajt that's the advice I was looking for thanks. Right now I just want to get it running, I'm very interested in learning to tune myself at some point. The greddy just has a normal usb cable to connect laptop, and has switches for multiple tunes and setups, also the 2step launch control. But if the standard ecu is easy enough to hook up to a laptop via the cable that comes with the OBD2 plug suggested earlier, and I'm going to have to buy it to flash the ecu anyway I might as well stick with the standard one. Wouldn't the sti map ROM that I have to flash onto the standard ecu also be the wrong CR? So either way requiring a tune? http://www.greddy.com/products/electronics/e-manage-ultimate/

That's hard out. The way I saw it was, I have a $1000 ecu sitting around, and it has the loom for my car. Seems odd it was ever setup for that plug layout if it were pointless.i mean getting a reflash or buying cables I've not heard of seems a lot more hassle and cost and time, then just plugging in the ecu I have right in front of me that's already setup for a v7 sti. Or am I missing something?
-
Its the greddy emange ultimate, has 2step, full data logging, tuning etc.its apparently as close to a stand alone ecu as you can get, well according to their add haha.Just realised the greddy ecu I have for my turbo kit was from a v7 still WRX, went and checked the wiring harness, and it's the right one for the denso. I don't have to do anything at all, it just plugs right on in!!!! WINNING. So do I still need to flash an sti map onto the denso? Or is the greddy likely to be capable of utilising what it needs from the denso while ignoring the TT stuff?thanks heaps for the info much appreciated
-
Well that's bloody good news. How do they go about tuning the rev d denso ecu? Where do you send it to be reflashed? Seems like the greddy piggyback along with the sti flashed ecu would offer a world of tuning possibilities. I like the idea of having everything accessable from my laptop which the greddy allows for. Anyone done a td06? Any difficulty with oil or water feed? Front mount should keep everything fairly accessable with heaps of room I'm hoping

Hi all, I've been collecting parts for a single turbo conversion I was going to do to my 98 bg5 GTB ej206 manual. (yeah weird, and wrong CR as it runs manual ecu, yet has reliably run for the two years I've owned it) but then I scored an 02 rev d bh5 yesterday with a blown primary. So now it seems sensible to put all single turbo stuff into the rev d as my bg5 has nothing wrong with it (yet). I understand it's a bit of a different process, but I think I have most of what I'll need. I have a td06 20g, full length tuned headers (slip joint type), 3" down pipe, fmic setup, greddy emange ultimate piggy back ecu (just gonna buy a harness, CBF with repin or splice), tial 44mm external wastegate, blitz bov. I also have half a WRX in parts and a spare motor to scavenge parts from. So what I want to know at this point is if anyone has used the factory ecu in the rev d to go single? I believe they are tunable? And other than the wiring and different intake, is there a hell of a lot of difference in the actual physical process of swapping everything over? I read the single turbo thread, am I able to largely follow that? Or is it a completely different game?
