gathermewool Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Car runs fine if you do it right... much more power and acceleration than stock. If you disconnect the battery before unplugging the MAF and do the Subaru idle relearn method, you will have no problems whatsoever. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk That's just not true. You aren't getting any more power. You're getting more noise and f***** up fuel trims Edited July 23, 2019 by ammcinnis Language '15 FB25 Magnatec 0W-20 + FU filter (70,517 miles) RSB, Fr.

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Your average will not be 37 MPG, and your indicated MPG isn't accurate, if that's what you're using. Iv'e gotten great gas mileage cruising in 45 MPH traffic, too, brother! That's not how I drive 90% of the time, and I'm sure whatever driving condition that got you 37MPG isn't your normal pattern of driving, either... FYSA, you can spend a few bucks on an OBD-II dongle and an app and show us what your fuel trims look like? Finally, let's tone this whole thing down and make it into a conversation. I didn't mean to offend you. I simply meant to tell you that an intake without have your MAF scaled and your ECM tuned will net you inconsistent results. You might get a blip more HP here or there, but you may also get dips and other anomalous operation. The net result SHOULD be negative for you, unless all you're looking for is a rad new noise maker.

How much do you think this Focus costs!?" '15 FB25 Magnatec 0W-20 + FU filter (70,517 miles) RSB, Fr.

Grnlantern1 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Went to my Dealer fir my routine oil change today but had them install High Flow K&N Oil Filter and wanted them to rotate my tires but now they refuse to rotate aftermarket wheels because 1 lame customer claimed they damaged one of his wheels which they have proof it was previously damaged. So now gotta get a Low Level Race Jack and start rotating myself.. [emoji2961][emoji2961][emoji2961] Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Town Fair is the worst tire store on the planet! Find a locally-owned "Mom & Pop" tire store, or general repair shop. They usually will bend over backwards for the customer. At least that is what I've found around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcEWoLF Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Dropped off the STi lip at a body shop to repaint it, it will be a gloss black finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcEWoLF Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Here are the pics of the final results: https://imgur.com/a/IwJ9hl5 Also anybody got a suggestion on how to fill in a small gap? The body shop is worried if they tight the bracket or try to fix it it might snap. I let one of my friends drive the car and he damaged the front lip. That’s why it needed to be repainted and repaired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
