Ordered Downpipe

I just ordered a perrin downpipe and perrin mech boost control(SOG), i believe I can manage to install the downpipe( with the help of marriedwrx04), but has anyone ever installed the boost control. By the way scott is going to do a ecutek reflash on it after i install parts, i cant freaking wait. My only fear is that i will not be able to stop moding.

 

you've got the bug! dude that's gonna be awesome! congrats!:bigthumb:

 

MBC is not hard to do... it should be straightforward from the instructions

 

will i need to get a cel fix even though i will be getting ecutek?

 

i dont think so... mine didnt throw a CEL when i had mine for 2 months before ECUTEK... and alex has a DP installed but i doubt he threw a CELL either...

 

you wont throw a cel with ecutek..also you dont need an mbc with ecutek but you will get faster boost response with an mbs..the stock boost silinoid is slower to respond..congrats again on the new piping..let me know if u need any help with the install

 

thanks weapon, i'm not sure what scott ordered me, but i think its mech, maybe not. either way i just got what he told me i needed

 

that a way to do some research. im just giving you hell. i would be doing the same thing that you given the cash to do so. HAVE FUN.

 

Everytime i think i have something firgured out, someone says the complete oppisite. I just gave up and let him talk me into it. I'll learn one of these days, but until then I am just going to have to depend on others advice.

 

i mean really, how many STIs around here are really hooked up? i know there are a few but that doesnt give you many options on which way to go. I dont doubt for a second that scott has it together. Judging by what everyone else says that goes to him, he is the man, he builds them the way they need to be built specifically for the owner of the car. thats unique and you wont find that anywhere else. most have a simple formula that they go by, but where is the fun in that? then all of our cars would be the same. i hope everything works out well for you man, let me know about the perrin downpipe. hopefully it will seel up right and wont leak on you.

 

awesome chris! can't wait to see how the ecutek works out for ya! my plans are for SoG to do the ecutek and the TBE set up for now. perrin is good stuff, but expensive. at least the perrin stuff for the SRT.

 

well after saturdays meet, i decided to add to my downpipe, with the Perrin Catback exhaust. they should both be here in the next week. oh yeah, then ecutek. I think ii will be done after that for a while, except for new tires.

 

cant wait man..ill install it for ya if u want!! :gaysex:

 

i wanna hear what a perrin exhaust sounds like... the little video clip was real cool

 

i acually read up on it before i ordered it, the muffler is a magna flow

 

the original turbo xs axleback was a magna flow and it sounds really good

 

careful kris, i may take u up on that. i'm planning to install at my office, inside the building. i got the ok from my boss to do the install here. its by the airport, if u dont mind the drive.

 

i'd love to help... depends on what date/time though

 

maybe next weekend, if not then maybe march 19 or 20

 

make sure to post when I owe you one after my up install:bigthumb: .

 

im assuming u meant may

 

no next year:fawk:


yes i meant may, u know u could have just changed it for me

 

yea but then we would not have seen the finger:fawk:

 

just wanted to make sure

 

ok the catback will be here thursday, its funny it been 3 week since i ordered a downpipe from SOG, which i havent seen, and only a week since i ordered the catback.

anyway anyone want to come help me install it thursday evening? i am right by the atl airport, i am going to install with or without help because i wont get a chance for the next two weekends

 

my parents will be back in town on thursday and will be here till wednesday next week... so i probably wont be able to make it out much while they are here

 

oh yeah, got to put my cusco heat shield turbo, but that wont be hard,

 

Cant make it late thuersday but I will give you a call when I get off

 

well the catback is installed, and may i say it sounds f#ckin' awesome.. man i cant wait to get the downpipe and ecutek, and then dyno, going to try and smash my last dyno, 253hp, 263tq

 

by the way i will sell the factory muffler for 50 bucks if someone wants it

 

wow dude... i gotta hear it soon... u comin to DnB?

 

sorry to say i'm not going to be able to make it. i have to work this weekend. my downpipe should be here by tuesday this week, so i am sure i will be at the install day on the 21. by the way how long does it take scott to do the ecutek reflash? planning on getting it done the 28th

 

28th is the mountain run... also im not sure if scott works on saturday...

for ecutek tuning on a turboback STi, i think it takes 3 hours on average... but some take longer

 

got the downpipe on finally, friday, took a hour and a half to install by myself. man this thing is loud know! i am know getting a pesky cel. quick question, do i need to get the cel fix or will ecutek take care of it for me? oh yeah anyone got plans for monday, i see the g2g has been cancelled.

 

UP and DP.

How much would a reasonably priced UP and DP go for?. Should I get mine on eBay?. Have u had good luck on eBay for those types of parts?.


Thx,


Mark

 

i went with a perrin,so i paid $355(6 Bux over MSRP) for the downpipe, there are a lot of different UP and Dp for sale. if u are trying to save money, gutting the UP is an option, and picking aup a DP for 150-200. here are a few

Some car throw a cell and some don't. My STi did. But i had a cell fix I got out of ebay and it work
