is it exactly the same dimensions as the plastic one?

AFAIK it is. I've gotten them off of both WRX and LGT engines...

Splinter how and where did you order the sti and Legacy badges from? Just through you local Subaru agents, or online somewhere?

Thanks.

How big's that tank? Does it have a bladder?

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Wed Jul 25, 2007 3:40 am

15gal

No bladder, since its an internal mount

It full of high density foam and baffles tho (to prevent slosh)

I think this is my last expensive package:

Under manifold intake is pretty much complete

yup looks good to me. one thing splinter what about the breather lines that come from heads and block?

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Sun Aug 12, 2007 11:35 pm

Switching to a smaller tube, 3/8" inch, and running it under the turbo inlet along the back of the block

How much for one of the aluminum filler necks?

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Mon Aug 13, 2007 1:46 am

Would you mind discussing parts transactions in another thread or pm?

IronMonkeyL255 · Post by **IronMonkeyL255** » Mon Aug 13, 2007 2:53 am

My bad. I kinda lost track of who I was addressing.

Anyway, what tranny are you running with this?

EM?

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Mon Aug 13, 2007 3:13 am

PPG straight cut dogbox, Autronic EM

Packages with spendy goodies are always fun to get. Prob won't won't be your last for this car though. I learned the hard way

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Mon Aug 13, 2007 3:24 pm

Well theres no really big items left to purchase...

Clutch, transmission, engine, turbo, EM, suspension, seats, fueling, wheels, tires.... Ive got them all

I need a roll cage, but that wont be coming in the mail

Not the prettiest welds ever, but it should do.

For crying out loud, bro, you're scaring me! Practice FME. Foreign Material Exclusion. Cover that oil vent nipple on the block before you drop something in there and can't retrieve it, easily. Not lecturing, just a friendly suggestion. If it is not temporarily covered, how can you verify that somethng has not gone in there? Works for me.

Where did you get your Autronic, and where are you going to have it tuned?

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Mon Aug 20, 2007 4:43 am

Got my autronic from a local shop, having it tuned at Rocket Rally

and good advice

greg donovan · Post by **greg donovan** » Mon Aug 20, 2007 4:51 pm

apparently canada doenst have the AWD Turbo restrictions that the Rally America has for rally in the US.

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 1:50 am

Im making up a second intake pipe with an intake restrictor in the future

Rather than using a restrictor plate, like most people do for ease of install/cost, I'm going to be using tapered exhaust piping to bring it down to the required dimensions, I think there's more performance to be had that way because it'll improve the laminar flow, rather than generating a bunch of turbulence and a low pressure zone right at the turbo inlet.

Hey Matt, i want one in addition to an in-take manifold for MY '91 BF 2.2l N/A. I wanna 'crinkle coat' it Red and I wonder how much it would be to have Extrude Hone? You still have a media blaster @ work?

evolutionmovement · Post by **evolutionmovement** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 11:17 pm

Extrude Hone is expensive, IIRC, over a grand.

bmxpunk · Post by **bmxpunk** » Wed Aug 22, 2007 12:49 am

hmm the estimate i received for extrude hone for the intake manifold was only ( ha ha) $400

Splinter · Post by **Splinter** » Wed Aug 22, 2007 4:59 am
