IAC Idle Air Controller just regulates idle speed. Midpipe cat could cause your problems as well I suppose, a severely plugged cat makes a car feel really sluggish in my experience. Even worse at higher RPM. Never had a Subaru with an older cat so I couldn't tell ya how that feels, but it can't be t...

EDIT: Never mind.

Where are you located?

Worst case it can't hurt and you'll know for sure that they're good!

I'll take 'em. Sending PM.

Swapped an EJ22 that always seemed down on power and mileage from my friends '97 Brighton to a '96 Outback that had a blown EJ25. During the course of the swap I pulled the intake manifold off and found one of the manifold gaskets was folded over on itself causing a major vacuum leak. Replacing that...

The most I can give ya for the seats is $300, but if you're game for that I can come get them in a couple weeks. Let me know via PM or whatever. I guess I don't really care on the 60/40 or not as long as if you do trade with the NASIOC guy you make sure the 60/40 still fits in our cars. So take $50 ...

Awesome! This is great. I have a MegaSquirted Camaro and I've been watching the Subaru MS progress closely. Nobody really has any good information, although a couple claim to have made it work. The more information we have, the better the community will be. Myself, I have no need for it right now bu...

I'm pretty interested in the seats, just going back and forth on not having the fold-down rears anymore. My original plan was to find some 02-03 wrx seats and just use fronts only, but those 06 ones look pretty good front and rear. Better colors too. The last thing I'm concerned about with them is t...

Do you happen to also have the horn/airbag module for the 06 WRX steering wheel?

Seats sit higher than stock? What if I don't have black buckles to give ya? Ski pass-thru on them?

Well, if I do decide to go this way it will be done after considerable researching.

Good to know that you do have some coolant/oil lines, it's always better to deal with a selection instead of just one set.

He hasn't responded to PMs or anything and I don't need the ECU anymore.

Lee, do you know if the oil and coolant lines from the VF11 would work correctly? Or would I have to scrounge up some lines from something else?

You can remove the sensor and screw the cable in. Might need to hit a junkyard to get a 5-speed speedo cable. It has a funky extension cable/housing thing and the auto one doesn't. Auto one may not be long enough, or so I've heard.

I rewired my connector so it is under the dash, I mostly did that to isolate any wiring problems in the stock wiring. I'll have to rewire it out to under the hood if I use the stock BCS instead of the resistor, because that BCS clicks like crazy anytime I approach boost. It would be very annoying un...

It works! Thanks to Blackbart the new ECU fixed it. Old one must be shorted internally to ground on the BCS line. Small problem, the dropping resistor I am using instead of the BCS gets hot. Too hot to touch. Should this be OK, or should I rework my system to use the actual BCS? Woohoo! Success! :-D

Blackbart has one coming to me. Thanks!

Trying to find another ECU. Harder than I thought it would be. :roll: In the meantime, I've made the discovery that the BCS line in the ECU is grounded. All the time. Even with the key off and no power to the ECU. I can slide the connector in and out on the BCS and feel it click, however when it's p...

Lee, if you still have it when I get the '91 running right I'll be interested. Looking for an ECU for it right now to hopefully fix the problem. That turbo would meet my power goals, and the 90 degree intake would be nice for a stock route intake setup.

Like the title says, I find myself in need of a spare ECU. The one in my car might be damaged, so it would be good to have one to swap out and test with. I would prefer an ECU from a '91 just because I would like it to match my car, but I will take what I can get, even if it's a 92-94 ECU. It will n...

Interested in the ECU. Let me know if you still have it.

OK, I left the stock BCS wiring attached to the ECU. I then used a tap connector and ran my own line off of the wire at the ECU for the signal to the BCS and ran the other line to the fuse panel for power to the BCS. I blew 20A fuses after starting the car. I tried twice, and blew two fuses. Each ti...

Bad news... Still throws a code 44 even with the BCS plugged in. BCS measures 13 ohms, and was working fine on Lee's car. I even ran the vacuum lines to it like stock and drove it in D-Check until only the one code 44 was blinking. Still cuts out over a certain load. So, the power wire to the BCS th...

It's connector F47 on the ECU, the biggest one that has 26 pins. Pin number 3 is the BCS line, it is black with a white stripe.

I love Alldata.

Both dropping resistors measure 13 ohms. One terminal on my plug has 12v. Other one has continuity to the ECU. Letting it sit unplugged overnight did reset my codes, I've now only got the code 44 for the BCS remaining. The smallest resistor I have around the house right now is a 10k, which I'm guess...
