I just got my first brand new Subi, a 24 WRX base in blue. I love it so far! I’m a little older, 42, but I’m looking forward to paying respect to the WRXs that started it all with thoughtful modifications in the future. My previous experience with a Subaru was when I was in Okinawa, and I had a 2000 Legacy B4 RSK. It was interesting to see the cool stuff that we don’t get in America. I remember seeing Forester STIs and the original WRX STIs. Amazing. I’ve watched all your videos concerning the new WRX though. I really enjoy your content and the information you provide!

Cobb 20g is garbage. Get rid of it

I'm just here to start my first modding journey, but i know jack all about cars. I got a stock manual 2023 wrx and a rather vague idea of what I want to do as I don't really know all of what I can do but I knew the wrx would fit the bill and is the car I want to modify. What I do know I want is more power but not to what extent and to make it look cooler (but that's a given tbh). So I guess I'm here to figure out what does what rather than what to do to accomplish X goal. Luckily I got more than enough time to do that

CVT owner here and if you are trying to make it a monster buy the MT! Only thing I did was an exhaust and intake on mine to be safe and it was mostly for the sound and it has run flawlessly so far with 95k miles

guilty on the tune one. Got my Forester XT at 180,000 miles and have driven to 217,000+ miles with no tune and some bolt-ons. So far no Issues other than having to replace injectors once so far, but definitely getting a pro-tune soon, hopefully as soon as I get headers to be FBO

Just got my first AP for the subi. These cars are very timid compared to Hondas and Nissans. But always wanted a subi. Cheers to longevity of the FA

​@@Smeedia2JZ with a rear wheel drive conversion?

02 WRX with 180,000 miles. Don’t know the story of the car before the guy we bought it from but the previous owner(s) did a full mishimoto tubing kit, “cold” air intake, and an N1 exhaust. They cut the heat shield on the turbo so I assume the engine or turbo has been out before. But before we bought it, it sat for 15 months. When we got it we ran the old gas out, got a new fuel pump, and drove it for a while and them the turbo seal went bad. So we replaced the turbo. Well eventually I guess the previous owner didn’t get a tune or we fucked up because the heads cracked around the spark plug holes. All 4 of them have cracks from the valve seat to the threads. Due to constantly doing work on thr car trying to fix the issues we ended up doing like 3 oil changes within less than 2500 miles so it’s not that. But getting a new long block, yes from Ebay, because we don’t have a choice, will get a tune definitely, since I got a VF39 snd STI Pinks from a friends part out along with some interior bits. If it dont work, im fucked and its GG for the WRX for a long ass time until I start making good money. If we just made a mistake I wanna know so I can prevent that. Aside from the Ebay engine because we dont have $5000 for a fresh stage 1 IAG long block or however much they cost.

Hey bro, love the videos, I’ve used your educational points to mod my 2019 wrx. So far I’ve gotten it to 365 whp with all bolt ons and a tune. Looking to cap out at 400. Tuned for flex fuel. So far I have intake, jpipe, upgraded intercooler and radiator, upgraded LP fuel pump, and catch can. What would be the next move to achieve that goal to 400?

I got my car on a reverse sort of deal. The kid sold it to me “knocking” and I thought he was right because the AP was registering a lot of knock and DAM was dropping almost instantly. Get the car home pop the hood and start fiddling around - don’t see much - start it up and hear 0 knocking. Hook up my manual oil pressure gauge and it’s 97psi cold start. The car was registering a brass fitting chattering against a hard line as knock and the car was never tuned for the exhaust and down pipe that was on it so it was just all confused on the AFR side and probably causing some detonation. Got the tune fixed, fixed a million vacuum leaks, car has been my daily for over 2 years now with almost 0 issues.

for real though... your the reason i bought my 17 STI . hella good information on everything subies man. appreciate your content ! i came over from being a Audi fanatic and being spoiled adding performance parts with no tune needed...

Thats such an accurate representation of them 😂 they got some character to em 😅

If I get an AWE exhaust would I need to tune it? Love the vids

Everything you stated was accurate, Most people and I see it all the time want to just bolt on parts and go fast at the cheapest possible price, Then the engine lets loose and the car automatically becomes junk, Another big issue today and this goes across the board for all makes is these obscene extended oil drain intervals, Change your oil every 2,500-3,000 even when using full synthetic, Only thing extended drain intervals do is cause people to be lazy and not service their car and in the process run the engine low on oil causing major problems, Another big issue today and this is basically my opinion is these 0 weight oils are a joke, The only reason they exist is because of the government and MPG purposes, First thing I do to my cars if spec’d with 0w20 is drain the 0w20 and go with 5w30, The low tension piston rings and thinner oils for fuel economy coupled with extended drain intervals are a recipe for disaster.

NOT LIL TIMMY!!!

The first owner of my current 06 STI bought it brand new and installed a turbo back exhaust without cats and a short ram intake with no tuning at all and was driving it hard. Short story. Cracked a piston and parked it for years with only 12k miles. I bought it super cheap and installed a Type RA block put back the stock intake and installed a Cobb I'm only at 36k mile and the car is still basically new 💪🏽

An I have rebuilt the motor and it be the second it was rebuilt. An right now I'm have that coolant problem. Do you think it might be lifted head issue and or a head gasket issue and the systems getting pressurized?

I wasn't "into" cars when I got my first car. So I only got an auto 05 Legacy. Since it's my first car I want to keep it forever, so I'm hoping to be able to do a full overhaul build on it. It's gonna take a ton of money, time, work, research, and learning. But what I have planned for it to be will be sick, (at least in my opinion).

Luckily since it’s an 05 you have WAY more options for modification if you wanted to swap it to a manual. For a lot of people that’s how it starts 👀🔥

@@Smeedia Absolutely. I found a guy on youtube who put an STI 6-speed in his outback of the same sort of generation, and if I can get all the right parts I think that's what I'm gonna try to do. Basically make it a Legacy STI sleeper. But we'll see.

Well now I know who to stop by to make me a list for my 2018 sti. How far in Washington are you. From Canadian border

do you recommend modifying a Crosstrek Sport?

Surely an upgraded air filter and removing the charcoal filter in the air box doesn’t need a tune on a 23’ WRX??? I’m guessing I can even throw the STI Cat back exhaust on and stay stock tuned….

Been looking at a K and N air intake for my daily 2020 WRX, would I need a tune for it? and if so should I get an access port for that tune?

i have yet to get my sti, i want to get one but im not sure what year. I was thinking 2016-2019. Mainly just want to have it since it’s my dream car but probbaly have it go to 400-600hp if possible. I just don’t know what to get lol.

Getting a PPI, is there a recommended shop? Is it better to go to a subaru dealership or to find a shop that specializes in subaru? Is there a good way to tell if the car had mods taken off and accessport removed?

my 2022 wrx has an intake/exhaust and on 91 it makes 330 whp and like 390whp on E85

2018 STI for 3 years stock, running on a stage 1 maperformance tune, put on a grimspeed bypass valve and ran the same tune, no cel but it says the it’s running rich on bank one. No boost leaks or dirty maf sensor, should I get it tuned or just back to oem bypass valve w stock tune? The car has no idle problem or abnormal knock. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
