  1. yea took all the injectors out cleaned themand placed them back in and now it fires up sweet but when you give it a immediate rev or if you put it in 1st gear and try to drive it , it will start plattering and phatting and yea cannot pull the load .. do you think my orange airflow meter is playing up .... and not being able to calculate properly... when i disconnet the airflow meter plug the engine dies instantly

  2. i managed to get the car idling good not but when you rev it to about 3000rpm it seems to start popping and farting away and when in gear and try to drive it will not have power to pull but the engine will start dying,... white smoke is comming out of the exhaust and i can smell fuel...

    you recon unburnt fuel and not a good mixture ?

  3. hey guys and girls,

    i have just finished my car off but putting a V6 STI block in it and version 4 wrx heads and did a split fuel rail system and put it all back to gether in the car with a after market fuel regulator which i am running at about 42-43 psi.... when i start the car it is very hesitant on starting the whole engine and car shakes like hell and on the boost guage the needle is at 0 .. and when i press the throttle it will kill itself... and few back fires out of the throttle body and air filter...

    any suggestions please .. i am desperate for help at the moment.

    Subaru team driver and DC Shoes co-founder, Ken Block, is well known around the world thanks to his gravel- and tarmac-tearing abilities and the ways in which they’ve been captured on video. Well, where does one go after you’ve conquered both?

    To the snow, of course. We saw a teaser video of Ken Block’s TRAX STI Subaru Impreza a while back but, like the rest of the world, weren’t really sure what the hell it was until this little video surfaced last week. The project? To create the world’s fastest snow car. An experimental vehicle, the TRAX STI uses Block’s base-platform, competition-ready Subaru WRX STI, ditches the tires, adds the snow cat tracks and switches the suspension out for something a little more snow cat friendly to create one of the best snowmobiles the world’s ever seen! That TRAX STI boats a rumbling 2.5-litre 400hp engine, a KAPS 5-speed close-ratio dog box, and features Group N competition rally dampers made be EXE-TC. We look forward to hearing more about this car when it re-surfaces in 2010.

  5. hey guys

    I just wanted to know your opinion on exhausts ??? ... Presently I have a standard 2.5inch exhaust system on the car and I am thinking of putting in a 3inch exhaust system :-\ but am worried that it might be too big and will not have enough back pressure and it might not pull as hard in the bottom end ???

    Thanks in advance for your opinion on this topic :)

    thats true, but more so for old school engines, theres so many vacuum swithching valves and vacuum tanks etc on late model engines that average joe wouldnt know what to read or even where to hook the guage up.

    i agree with your point... mine is a version 4 and i just unplugged the pipe that goes to the blowoff valve from the throttle body.. the main thing is to hook the guage up on the throttle body where all the vacumm is before it splits and enter its respective cylinders....

  7. kool thats nice bro ... i have a wrx wagon non sti and all i did was a exhaust (cheap one) and a air filter and bov and a vf22 and i am doing 13.5 at a 4000rpm launch and changing gears between 6000 and 6500 rpm....which for my wagon with all the weight is not too bad i hope but yea not holding me back from thinking wat else can i do but keep it looking standard lol....... anyone goin to the winter drag wars on 28th june?
