oh, that was just for looks, ill drill a hole in the side or something to run it properly. Have no drill at the moment so its just tucked into those gromets at the back of the bonnet,

Why not buy some oem jets and mount them to your zero sports splitter since it already has provision for them and in the right place.. Just my 2c :-X.... But hey I\'m a nice guy :D. Might even have some if I dig for long enough..

Because I heard the OEM one cost all the money. I assume that they clip into those two holes at the top? If you have some that wuld be amazing. I want to hook it up to on OEM I/C spray button anyway so will ask. Who is the best place to get OEM stuff from, Winger?

Holy carp Subaru Upper Cylinder Cleaner is amazing. Going to do a can every oil change from now on.

Sprayed half a can in the manifold. Waited 5 minutes then started it, then held idle high and sprayed in the rest of can while running. Big thick clouds of grey/white and black smoke. Then stopped engine as the can ran out. Waited another 5-10 minutes then started again and went for a drive.

Blew out even more crap under boost. Came home and did half of the second can into my TMIC, the last half into manifold again. Went for another drive.

Idle is much smoother now, not rocking the car at all. Engine sounds much smoother/crisper. :D And no more smoking at all. ;D

Did you spray it on the intake manifold itself? Or one of the vac hoses?

Am pretty sure if one sprays it at the throttle body itwill be evenly distributed towards all cylinders rather than just a vac hose?

I sprayed into the manifold through the centre front manifold Vac Hose (11 I think). It will still distribute the same and can\'t really spray it straight into the TB directly with the TMIC on.

I went to repco, to get a panel filter for my car, they stock two sizes; one is like $18, the other $52. Knowing my luck it\'s the spency one, and in that case im better off just getting a K&N panel filter. So i walked out because I dont know the size of my panel filter, i dont have one.

Took my car for a wof, failed.

Not surprised, steering rack bushes. And exhaust leaks. Wof guy suggested header crosspipe rotted out, got under started pulling it off and got down to the last nut/bolt. On it, and though; I bet that\'s loose looking at the x-pipe flange bolt. And it was, word of advice folks; don\'t use a rattle gun to tighten \'zaust stuff. And the x-pipe is now shroudless, but the front end is leak free.

. Muffler pipe flange.

Paid for new spotlight cover STI And Volk decals

Bought a 3" axle back to make love to my zerosports midpipe

I\'m looking for exhaust from the DP back - might just get one made I think

Got my wagon back yesterday - I\'m loving it haha

The symms equal headers sound mean - car has 3" down pipe mated to factory exhaust (still so quiet! >:( thought downpipe would give it a bit more noise)

Goes well! Can definitely feel a difference - feels like a bit more off boost torque - still spools up nicely - didn\'t notice any noticeable lag or anything

Oh and I put my banner on

checked catch cans. header catch can empty... crankcase catch can has a reasonable amount of oil in it after one street sprint.

Does that mean anything significant? too much pressure in crankcase, or just normal?

How much boost do you run? I found if i pushed the boost my catch can filled up but on lower boost it doesn\'t use a drop.

Either way it means the crank case pressure is higher than what\'s in the breather system? How have you done the catch cans?

Crank case pressure = thin ice

I\'m running 17psi at the moment... the catch can has 3 hoses... one from the crankcase... one to the PCV and one to the intake.

The airflow from the can to the intake might be slightly less restrictive than the standard tee piece... but not by much.

Picked up "v8 dash" from strongs. Turns out it\'s a v7 sti one, but 260km speedo in blue. Looks nice, but not what i\'m after. Also billed / sold as a 03-05 sti dash. Which it isnt. Sooooo, back to strongs it goes, heres hoping they have the correct one.

Also waiting patiently for my new to me mudflaps to show up... eeeee!!!!!

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
