I was reading about doing an EJ20x swap into my Legacy GT and found out adding dual avcs is not that bad at all.

I'm not suggesting a new system or a change to a system that is already in place. Subaru already gave you a great system that identifies your exact model year with a single letter. Use it or don't... but if you're trying to somehow convince me that the nebulous GC-era carry-over 'version' scheme is somehow better, enjoy constantly making follow-up posts explaining why your 'v9' motor has no immobilizer because you've decided to lump 2005 models into that category.
Ignorance is one thing, but willfully dismissing a system that is already in place, less ambiguous, and universally recognized by anyone looking at OEM documents and part systems is another. I file people with this line of thinking into same category as people that tell you they have a 'stage 2 blah, blah' car between puffs on their vape pen. |

I think you fail to see the timeline here.
First, this is a system that has been in place for a long time and has been used for a long time. Nobody is obligated to use this, but if you choose to, you will probably have the same results as all the others before you, which were not bad. While this may be new to you, because you didn't look at the table, many others did, and it has served as a form of convention, a way for all to speak the same language. Nobody said you can't use the factory designations. The other thing to keep in mind is that this was enthusiast work that was done circa 2005. So you had first an enthusiast in Japan that made available to the community the Fast2 JDM. Then someone else put together the compiled list of part numbers and analyzed their meaning. This was the first time; in 2005, when all the legends of JDM could be dispelled and a reality check would be possible, real information available to the masses. That is the real value of the list. The part where I came in was that the information was there but it was not readily available in a comprehensive format and some of those that had the info were not willing to share it with the community. I decided to put this out for all to see and use. Does it make it better than the factory designation ? No. But at its time, in its day, it was the only source of realistic info. And it remains a very good source. And I'll tell you this: Don't take for granted all the freedom you have in the Subaru world. In the Mercedes world, there is no open source tuning. There is no free parts software, I paid $700 for mine combined with the FSM. So even today, when you fire up the Fast2, that's a guy back in 2003 that gave it to you for free. And that's worth mentioning ...... |

cons are, you could have spent the same money on a single scroll rotated kit and get more top end and alot more turbo selections. Depends on your driving style and where you like your powerband. |

Having seen all sorts of BPT turbo failures I would not spend the $700 over a Kinugawa 20G

I've been having an issue with my car that I considered to be related to the idle air control valve. On hot days sitting on idle or when sitting in traffic for a bit the car would start idling high. the idle would start rising above 1000 rpm and get up to 3-4000 rpm. Once I'm able to get the car moving on the highway for a bit the idle would return to normal. Other times the condition manifest when I've been driving the car, everything normal, I make a quick stop and turn the car off. When I get back to the car and fire it up the idle will be high, once again, getting on the road for a bit and the idling returns to normal. Saturday I installed a brand new OEM Idle air control valve but to my surprise after driving the car and it operating perfectly normal I made a stop and turned the car off for about 10-15 minutes. When I fired it back on it started to idle just above 1000 rpm. Now I don't understand what is happening, why the issue ? Seems to be related to the coolant temperature. Could it be that I installed the thermostat upside down ? Your help input is always appreciated.

I'm also wondering now if it has something to do with the higher pressure Mishimoto radiator cap and Moroso tank cap. I will check fuel pressure, thank you sir.

Mishimoto caps are crap. I read a lot of reviews on the Mishimoto caps and there were nothing but problems with them.
Only use genuine Subaru radiator caps |
