[GottalovetheWagon]

[Honest_Bob]

Very nice welding on the intake! Good stuff as usual. :)

[Dana]

<3333333333333 your the best. it looks sick, i cant wait!!!! i miss my car

[RyanG]

DOH!!! never mind :(

[ReVision]

Looks good Ryan!

[gary]

it sounds even better than it looks. We need to see the video Ryan!

Today I witnessed a woman orgasm while her car was on the dyno. I still don't know how I feel about that. =)

[redline]

Looks great but I never understood the CAI on a turbo setup.

[TROLL]

the philosophy is the same for NA as it is for Turbo... the cooler the air the more you can stuff into the cylinders... yes there is a turbo and an intercooler in the intake stream, but the cooler the air is initially, the cooler it will be as it enters the cylinders as well.
with that said, some people find them beneficial on subarus, some dont...

[CarbonIS]

i heard it dyno'd today.....

[gary]

yes it did... But I will let Ryan release the numbers. Its not bad though. Something about full boost at 3800RPM or something? =)

[RyanG]

yeah it ran :) the numbers on pump gas were awesome! just as I hoped. BUT, the meth didnt workout as planned. It functioned properly but the nozzle was too small (only showed a 5hp increase) We had the small nozzle in it but it wasnt enough to show a difference. And guess who forgot the other nozzle's
<--- this guy :( soooooo... she goes back for a retune the 5th. on meth this time :P and yes, we are seeing full boost by 3800rpm. at one point we were on the road test and dropped the pedal, we went from 11psi to 22psi in 200rpm :)

base pull was 320.80whp 289.16tq

final pump pull at 22psi 383.73whp 365.44tq

[teh DIRT]

yeah, def getting a FP green for me. good stuff ryan.

[S4toSTI]

38mm wg thats gonna be loudddd and 383/365 on a green with no meth is real sweet wow thats gonna rip. Hmmmmmmmmm.

[PSM-04-STi]

we all know the AP is a copy. It works just fine, and if you go on their website it shows exactly what you are getting.

This type of mod isnt for the novice either, being a shop,, we know what needs to be done to make it work properly. As you can see the piece works as it should :)

I edited this because I dont want my customers to think I am installing garbage. The AP stuff is very nice for the money, just not for the novice mechanic.

Thanks
Ryan

Kick @ss!!

I wish i was a girl that wore low cut shirts so i could have a 38 ewg and rip arround nj in it hahaha.

[Jourdan]

super shweet. perfect numbers on pump.
meth added into the mix should get around 430+...super awesome.

:eek::eek:

i second that motion


im jealous

[DaveSTi]

just waiting for you Dave :P


Definitely changing my mind about the 20g and thinking FP Green now with an 8cm. Not sure I want an EWG for my daily, unless it can be rerouted back into my Helix downpipe (which I doubt because Helix is junk).

I'm looking at a lot of money to do this right, this is going to take me awhile to save up for. :)

[TROLL]

helix now makes an uppipe/downpipe combo thats prefabbed for ewg. i know people have been unhappy with the placement of the ewg when they try to dump it but apparently if you get both pipes and plumb it back in its supposed to fit well. they're quite cheap too... just a fyi if that helps speed up your plan :).
and imo, if you're going to do an upgrade, you might as well do an upgrade... green or 30r are the way to go :)

[Jeffros Spec V]

Did some body say GreeN? :)

[RyanG]

Why didnt you go w/ the 44m wg. Seems to be a better fit especially if race gas will eventually be used

[jordanrw]

:screwy:

[RyanG]

cuz its not making an ungodly amount of power to need the 44mm. Most people go with the 44 because of the vband. The fitment is perfect with the 38 kit. Its a matter of whos kit you get.

its the valve that matters when using race gas. not the size

[wrxcelration]

yes the 44mm is better designed(valving) to be used w/ race gas. I just asked out of curiosity. Wasnt sure if you planned to use gas or eventually go bigger is all

[TROLL]

its just a larger opening, the design is the same aside from the flanges.

its actually not entirely based on the size of the turbo and it doesnt have much to do with race gas either, its the size of the turbo vs. how low of boost you are trying to run. big turbos want to make a lot of boost when they start spinning, they flow a lot of air. if you have a big turbo and you want to make big boost, you dont need a very large wastegate to control the boost, and the same goes for a little turbo making little boost. the time you need a larger turbo is when you have a big turbo and you want to make little boost so you need a beefier wastegate to step in and control it. think more like honda guys who run GT35r turbos at like 12 psi... thats when you need a big ass wastegate to keep the boost from rising above that low max boost number.

[wrxcelration]

I also forgot to add the the 44 doesnt use gaskets, which are prone to failure on race gas

But I just initially just looked at it from the upgrade standpoint. If your staying w the green and arent using gas then yes i agree the 38 is the better match no questions asked

[RyanG]

agreed with Troll. Although its pretty damn pointless to run big turbos at such little psi. Kinda like owning a Ferrari and not really "drving" it.

the V44 comes with a valve that can handle race gas. the 38mm is optional.

I do like the V44 for the no gasket/ vband reason. But the damn thing is HUGE!! I just wish it was the size of the 38mm and cheaper :P

[wrxcelration]

yea nearly a grand for a u/p and w/g is crazy

[pearl]

damn danas ride is serious.

[wrxcelration]

Hey Ryan, when the cars at the shop next time let me know. Id like to come check it out
