Hey SubaruNation,

I've been doing a fair bit of reading and research and I'm elbows deep into a td04 and TMIC install on my 91 ss. about the only thing I am missing is where to get the BPV adapter or plate and an elbow. I see you have on is this pic:

Where did you get it?

SubaruNation · Post by **SubaruNation** » Wed Jun 11, 2008 11:05 pm

you don't need that plastic 90* piece i have in that picture.
it's from lowes. we call it the creepy lowes object FTW!!

and i bought that cnc'd metal plate for a wrx off of ebay.
it's a wrx intercooler flange.

here's one
and another

thje problem with ^^ these is that there really isn't a way to attach a hose to them.

and you need everything there but the BOV. you don't want a Blow off valve b/c you would be wasting air.

if you have a machine shop in your area i would have them make you one if possible, otherwise look on ebay.

and you don't need the silicon hose to if you are doing a tdo4 swap.
you can look in my gallery for more pics of how i did it if you want

The install wasn't too bad either, not a big deal.

nice where did you get the skirts from

Bane · Post by **Bane** » Sun Jul 20, 2008 4:29 pm

looks nice!
i'm curious as well, what car did the skirts come from?
newer legacy?

I have a set of wrx skirts sitting in the garage, but they don't line up as nice as the ones you've put on?

SubaruNation · Post by **SubaruNation** » Sun Jul 20, 2008 7:27 pm

they came off of a 94 legacy gt wagon.

you could do something to the wrx ones to make them fit probably, you would need a heat gun because they are probably abs.

now i just need a rear lip...

lol, they're actually about 1.5" shorter then they need to be.

But with all my awesome fiberglass experience (read: just learned how to)
I could lengthen those suckers! Unfortunately i think it'll look ridiculous without a front bumper that lines up to them.

SubaruNation · Post by **SubaruNation** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 7:57 pm

just added MORE VF111 + 06/07 TMIC info.

kinda hard to believe i know.

You should now be able to look at this thread and know what you need to be able to install one into your car w/out turbo swapping.

Just Finished Tinting not too long ago,

Here are my results.

i actually see why they charge a ton of money to do this

it was not easy..

and again... excuse the door insulation rubber thing that loves falling out of my passenger door.

Go dark or go home ha ha!

what do you guys think?

Did you use Dupicolor wheel paint on your sideskirts?

asc_up · Post by **asc_up** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 7:27 pm

OH SHIT!! Hahaha looks crazy cool! How much did you pay and what % did you decide to go with?

SubaruNation · Post by **SubaruNation** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 9:41 pm

thanks yo!

im super stoked also,

i went w/ the 5% tint.

go dark or go home lol!

you seriously cannot see inside the car even if you put your face right up to it.

i paid just $40 for the tint from a badass tint dealer on ebay, "protint.." or something close to it. def recommend them for sure, custom cut and everything.

i absolutely love it.

im officially gangster lol!

n2x4 wrote:Did you use Dupicolor wheel paint on your sideskirts?

w/ the sideskirts i used the same color that i used on my wheels to keep the matching going on, which was "rustoleum midnight black metallic"

duplicolor is good stuff, i only use the clearcoat however.

SubaruNation · Post by **SubaruNation** » Tue Aug 26, 2008 2:23 am

plus old greyish blackish stock sideskirts look uber lame

Oh wow. So you did the actual tinting yourself? Or did you have someone put it on for you?

well ya, of course. they all look better with any kind of sideskirts on them. i just didn't like the fading and stuff that happend with them you know?

i had to buy books this semester so ya i did it myself.

these guys that do this professionally deserve more than whatever they are paid. really frustrating work until you figure out how to do it.

Hey man those wheels look sick too, i just realized i copied your color of those rims as i just painted mine black, Except mine are the RS style(6 spoke) from a 96 Outback!

What i meant also was that of course the skirts look good, But Due to ABMS dark properties, black stands out and looks good on it, but all in proportion right!
