any prob with a non cat dp on an 06

JLwrx06 · 11-22-2006, 04:17 PM

I just order my megan dp for my 06 and it is catless. I was wondering if any one is having any problems with a catless dp on their 06? Should i sell it and get a catted one. If its not really that big of a deal, Im going to just put it on. i already have em. thanks all

I don't have an 06 but I do have the megan catless DP. You should be fine with EM, although there are lots of stories of boost creep problems with 06's floating around here.

JLwrx06 · 11-22-2006, 05:33 PM

is there any where that has a way to fix the boost creep prob?

I have a megan dp on my 06 wrx and i dont have any problems its well worth the money..only thing is if your going to use the stock catback its most likly going to leak but other than that no problems.

I'm running a catless DP (Cobb) with stock CBE and Cobb AP. No bost creep or leaky exhaust. Nice setup and very stealthy.

thanks all for the help. i was getting kinda nervous about the boost creep problem. im still a little uneasy about it but ill guess ill just wait to get a cbe. probably not tho. ha

Before you go trying to fix boost creep, you should make sure you actually are having boost creep.

Not that it isnt likely, but there is no sense doing anything about it until you know you have it. Not everyone does.

The solution is porting the wastegate. More specifically, reshaping the entry into the wastegate passage.

thanks i was just wondering if it happens, which my luck it probably will. is porting the WG something I can do at my house or would I hav to take it somewhere to have it done?

This is dependant on your capacity to remove the turbo from the car. If you can do it, then you can port your own turbo, if not, then you can't.

CynicX · 11-24-2006, 03:15 PM

I'd personally suggest making sure it creeps with the dp AND EM. The 06 is going to need EM to run safely.

I had my WG ported and it didnt do too much for the creep. Once I had EM it was under control...MAYBE in a LONG 5th WOT pull it might start to creep but I doubt it would go to far and besides I dont go that fast so I dont worry about it...

So get your dp with EM. See if it creeps then go from there...
