Sounds just right .. mine was very similar with this setup and stock turbo. Did you get larger injectors for future potential? |

How much boost are you running? Also why the Dom 3 vs the 1.5 |

Recently rebuilt my 08 WRX hatch with the following:
Still breaking her in and am planning on a tune @ Precision Tuning in NJ at 1k miles. My goal is 300awhp on 93 without sacrificing drivability as I will be dailying the car to and from work and using at a grocery getter. Is 300 to the wheels with stock exhaust achievable without sacrificing reliability with the parts listed above? If not, what should I add for 300? Injectors? Fuel Pump? |

I could be wrong but the stock exhaust has a bit of restriction in the muffler

Ok... Great...
No. It doesn't. Not at power levels below 400hp. Above that, maybe you could argue it does, but the stock muffler is fine. May not be ideal, but think about a Stage 2 setup from Cobb. They require a downpipe only, not a full exhaust. And that's getting close to the 400 crank hp number with an OTS tune. |

I don't normally do turbo anything.
I will say....... What is your altitude (high like Denver will yield lower numbers compared to sea level)? What dyno? Some read higher or lower than others. What is the calibration on THAT dyno? There are MANY things that can affect the final readings. What is your fuel? Arizona, California and Nevada tend to suck (part of why COBB has ACN maps for their AP). Summer fuel vs. winter fuel (NY metro is an example) makes a difference. To me, a dyno is fine for "before/after" mod runs. Basically, I had this, dyno said this, did that, dyno said that. Compare to others (sorta) from the same dyno. Do NOT compare to ANY other dyno in any other location. |

I made 390whp/360wtq with my set up. I expected more?
Hey everyone,
I'm really just looking for some opinions. I recently finished my built motor and dyno tuned up in southern pa on a dyno jet. I only made 390whp/360twq and ran into some issues while tuning and wanted to know your thoughts. Here's what I have: Engine: Built 2.7 Hydra by Element Tuning 100mm Manley pistons Manley rods GSC 272 Cams Stock Crank TGV Deletes Super Tech Valvesprings ARP Head studs IAT Visconti AEM 3.5 MAP Sensor Grimmspeed 3 port EBC Aeromotive Fuel Rails Deatschwerks 340LPH Fuel Pump Injector Dynamics 1050X (1065cc) Injectors NGK Iridium Spark plugs Speed Density on Cobb Access Port Turbo smart BOV Blouch 1.5 XT-R (Twinscroll)-IWG 3inch Inlet & 10cm hot side Tomei Expreme Equal Length Headers & Up-pipe (Twinscroll) Perrin FMIC ACT Heavy Duty Street Performance Clutch OEM Fly wheel (I may be forgetting some things) Located in Northern Va but tuned up at PSI Proformance in Lansdale PA. Final Dyno pull on a Dynojet (Jan. 17, 2019) 4th gear 387whp/360tq @ 21PSI on 93 pump When I first finished this project my goal was to break 400 to the wheels. I was confident with this set up to at least break 400whp and have torque right around the same, even on 93 pump. If I had to actually ballpark it, I expected to make around 420-430whp and 440-450tq. Down the road, I do want to eventually go with a cobb flex fuel kit to have the ability to run E85, but it's not a necessity at this time. While tuning we discovered that the IWG was opening up too soon. We also saw on that last pull that my clutch was starting to slip which pretty much concluded my dyno tune. Granted my clutch is relatively new, I have a friend who ran into this same issue with the same clutch. They are supposed to be rated 515tq to the crank, so I was quite surprised to see it not hold any more than 360 to the wheels. "Wastegate duty cycles were mid 30's on hit to full boost (according to my tuner). The issue he ran into was he was 50-60% up and the turbo was tapering more than usual. If the spring was off it would have a slow PID to full boost. We had the opposite issue. The turbo was tapering more up top than usual, dropping power a tad even when hitting it with lots of WGDCs." ^(I know absolutely nothing when it comes to tuning so I don't fully understand what he's referring to in all of this tuning lingo.) Now, knowing what I know, I have been contemplating converting to EWG's and knowing that I am twin scroll, I would need a dual ewg set up. It's rather a complex project to complete a dual ewg on a stock location turbo with this setup. A pretty penny is required (as usual with Subarus imo) to fabricate my current up pipe or have one completely fabricated from scratch to accommodate this. I also plan to invest (unfortunately) in yet another clutch that hopefully doesn't give out on me. I might just throw a 6puck disc in and call it a day, but I may also consider switching out to a lightweight flywheel as well. Curious what are some of your opinions or thoughts on this and I'm open to suggestions on alternative solutions. Thanks! Last edited by dud3tt3; 02-13-2019 at 01:58 PM. |

hey guys im new here to NASIOC and to the Subaru world as well, I love all types of cars but have most experience with honda. I recently bought a 2011 wrx hatch with 33k on it and fell in love. I am not sure if this is the best thread to ask this question so forgive me if it's not. I am curious to know if 280-300hp (whp) is realistic for reliable daily driving and where in the North east area are some good pro-tuners to visit. Thanks.

Yes that is definitely an easy to hit number and easy daily driver. I was on about 400awhp and that was still a fun daily until rush hour hit, then my left leg hated me. To hit those numbers you will probably need to add about $1000 of upgrades to hit it. Starting with intake exhaust header maybe swap to e85 and TUNE IT!!!! The ecu is not as adaptable as Honda’s are sadly so you need the tune ASAP or once you install each part |

Thanks for the advice, I have a CBE and plan on installing a downpipe and an intake with the cobb accessport until I can bring it in for a protune. Combine that with some shocks and springs or coilovers. There is so much information out there however there is also a lot of opinions and as I don't really know anyone personally who has modified any turbo Subaru or any Subaru for that matter it's tough to find out what the right thing to do is with certain modifications. I will always love a well setup N/A honda but I fell in love with the boxer engine as well, they just seem to be a bit more delicate from what ive learned so i'm very hesitant about any mod and I want to be absolutely sure before doing anything to the engine.

Yes there are a lot of opinions and some people get away with some things but most of the time and to be safe, ALWAYS tune for every modification. And yes Subaru’s are very delicate in some aspects. My last wrx was pushing 400 and never had a problem, my current wrx is fairly stock and only pushing 285 and my engine already crapped out. |

Yeah those are the type of stories that make me nervous, I will just have to start slow and as you said absolutely tune it after every modification. I would even be happy at 285WHP. I'll just have to be ready for anything financially it looks like. It is my daily driver after all. Thanks for the reply. |

Base + 20% on gas (93) would be safe with tune.

This is the first time I have used this forum. I have a 2015 Wrx with a K&N typhoon air intake and Nameless muffler deletes. The car came with an SPT/Sti exhaust. I am looking to tune the car to Stage 2 from COBB. Would I need a J-pipe or would the car be fine without the J-pipe?
