yeah 750s.
Didnt get everything done tonight but made decent progress. Gotta do some fine aligning of the exhaust tomorrow, re-install the intake, and tune.
Shitteh part is we wasted 4 hours trying to get that aps pipe to fit properly. Could not get it on properly at all. what a pita, ended up putting the stock unit back on.
Here are some pics of the install
Stock exhaust removed...
making room...
sti ic vs wrx ic
wrx turbo beside the new one...
The turbo new turbo coolant line was rubbing against the transmission housing, loosening the uppipe and moving the turbo a little solved our problem. Other than that issue (and the aps pipe) the turbo was a perfect bolt on.
turbo in...
intake snorkel, replaces a huge milk jug lookin thing thats used for sound deadening.
The aps instructions were good. The product is really nicely made, but that coupler that goes between the pipe and turbo doesnt work with my turbo. We tried everything, wasted 4 hours on this. If we decided not to install this before, the intake manifold could have stayed on and the car would be tuned right now! ugh.
this is the coupler im talking about.
This is the pipe its replacing
downpipe on
Cutting the flange on the dp to make it flat, so it will fit to the borla properly.
stock heat shield even fits!
STI IC installed
more to come tomorrow.
