turbo inlet is always a nice upgrade to help the vf37 flow as much as it can.

I already have a catless ebay downpipe for my wrx. I was thinking a twinscroll dump tube is required because with just the flange being welded it would be extremely difficult with the opening differences between the td04 and twinscroll exhaust sides

I was talking to Pete at Efi LOGICS and they have done a couple set-ups like that. It does take some massaging, but it's doable. and then you have a USDM length twinscroll dp. it's the route I'll be going soonish.

I guess it depends on the confidence/ability of the welder. I imagine some slitting and 'massaging' is required. Lmk how it turns out.

I came across this discussion about twin scroll setups randomly. I'm wondering if anyone has tried the Kamak or Kinugawa twin scroll setup. I've been looking at the ones on www.steamspeed.com. I'm just curious since they seem to have such a good warranty and the pricing seems pretty good. Also, any suggestions on the downpipe solution I should try would be helpful. Thanks for all the good info so far!

I got a Tomei down pipe from eBay, $400 delivered, perfect fit, got excellent torque with it when tuned.

Ive decided that that is the way to go. Read through this thread, Clark said it was a waste on the stock twinscroll but so many people have said otherwise and boost came on so much quicker on my sti with it. |

Meh, I spoke to that Clark dude when I was getting started on my swap, I went to EFI logics and got a real tune. Was spoken to with respect and no attitude. The tuner at EFI asked if I had a 3 point boost controller, I told him I had it but had not installed it. Immediately he said to install it and he'd have my car boosting much Quicker. Other than the turbo back exhaust I also installed a Perrin turbo inlet and a walbro fuel pump, kept the stock air box. The car feels awesome, well worth the real tune money.
The Tomei down pipe I got is Jdm length, I just modified my intermediate pipe to reach the down pipe joint, no big deal. It's also a donut style, I wanted to keep the factory like setup. I have a borla hush catback, it's a slip over pipe setup, was very easy to extend and adjust to fit properly. I agree with you that welding a twin scroll flange on to a usdm style bellmouth is not going to end up just right, it'll be a hack job. I've seen a Cobb somebody here modified, it wasn't good.

agreed. Clark may be a wealth of knowledge but no one can say anything good about his attitude and customer service. I even contacted him via a different way so he wouldnt know it was me and came to the same point that basically I had no idea what I was talking about and my car will never run right how i tune. w/ 20 local subaru's running my tune and no complaints I can conclude I must be doing something right stimikey and phatron are a very helpful and put out great tunes. both of which have given me free advice on how to improve my tune or how little they would change if I had them modify my current tune via etuning. |
