500HP Subaru STI Build Breakdown!!

[@ZolaKluke]

The way your car is built and how you drive it is a huge testament to your aftermarket choices and also Subaru's overengineering of the EJ, Stacy is a legend for holding up all that horsepower

[@DanielKellert]

Honestly can’t believe this car keeps taking the abuse I give it 😅

[@HeidiFegles]

He is right about the engine tranny mounts. I ripped mine to shreds doing launches at the track. I got 2 weekends out of the stock bushings. And years out of the hard poly bushings. Exact same set up as this guy.

[@wazza_za7873]

Stacey is a beast! Don't sell yourself short.

[@DanielKellert]

Certified ripper 🙃

[@SiCaRiI_DaGgEr]

Just found your channel, pretty damn good how stock the motor is with that amount of hp....subscribed !

[@DanielKellert]

She’s still kickin somehow 😅🤙🏼

[@kraashk4864]

My first time here. Recommend content via the other people that I follow. Good stuff!

[@DanielKellert]

Ayy that’s awesome 🤙🏼 Welcome to the channel! 🙃

[@fredastaire6156]

badass video! Super helpful with planning my 04 STi build. Thank you!

[@DanielKellert]

🙌🏼🙌🏼 good luck with the build!

[@HeidiFegles]

I hate king main bearings. I used the soft ACL bearings on subarus and get really good results

[@RithMedia_xL]

Thank you for the information. I'm trying to get to 500 as well in my legacy gt!

[@deanwilliamson1373]

Nice video fellow Canadian. It would be helpful to have a quick run down on your build. My build last year made 528 on a hub dyno. GTX 3576 gen 2, pump 94, water method injection, ETS headers and turbo kit, tomei pon cams, Emtron ecu and display. As i remember boost was about 27psi.

[@jeremypadilla8241]

Sick build brotha! You definitely gave me some ideas for my 07 build.

[@DanielKellert]

That’s what I like to hear! Thanks Jeremy 🤙🏼

[@HeidiFegles]

Ported heads will give you way more power trust me. I did just that and made a shit load more power. The felpro new mls gaskets the permatorque gaskets are actually good. I’d run them on my subie. Put them on the wife’s Honda after Brent from pfi said they are good. But I run the roger Clark motor sports, head gaskets on my Subaru from flat irons tuning. Stock heat range plugs.

[@streetangel6783]

Thought headwork was needed for 500+hp... This means JDM big port heads will be just fine.love ur channel bro..keep it up💯💪🔥

[@DanielKellert]

Who needs bigger valves/cams when you can just slam a couple extra psi of boost in there 😅 thank you 🙌🏼

[@brandoncarr1171]

amazing build new to the channel really enjoy the content only thing i will say is i was told to stay away from subaru blue oil filter there black one is much better . was told this from roger clark motorsport

[@DanielKellert]

Welcome to the channel! 🙌🏼 That’s the first I’ve heard of that 🤔 I’ve never had any issues 🤞🏼

[@chapmanmerchant]

I would like to keep in touch i did 450 at the wheels on that dyno 9 years ago. at rocket rally. I live in edmonton. Rebuilt and back on the road.

[@LosAngeles1791]

Question, can a well-maintained EJ 257 out of a 2013 hatchback STI be reliable under normal daily driving conditions???

[@phoenixcrawshaw]

Subscribed the moment ya fell out ya seat, 😂 sold

[@DanielKellert]

[@Bted__ever]

[@DanielKellert]

😅😅

[@Okaydogo_]

All the non-Subaru enthusiasts that say head gasket jokes punching the air right now haha! Stock head gasket for ya!

[@armandosealey2632]

What is the octane of the pump gas you're using, also what brand oil and weight. Nice buid 👏🏿👏🏿

[@DanielKellert]

94 octane pump gas! I use Motul 5w50 ester blend oil 👍🏼

[@jamaarjohnson1230]

Where in alberta? I just got a 2019 sti. I’m in banff

[@DanielKellert]

Edmonton area! Congrats on the STI!

[@jakespov4106]

Love the car, huge inspiration for mine (2014 wrx hatch). Was just curious what you think I would need to make a little over 300 wheel safely. As of now I have been told a Air oil seperater, downpipe, intake and tune. Let me know if there’s anything else your recommend, thank you!

[@jakespov4106]

Also it’s stock right now besides an axel back exhaust

[@meowif2572]

Just for reliabilities sake, get a cylinder 4 cooling mod from IAG like he does. I ran one on mine and it made a world of difference in my temp. Plus that extra reliability safety net in the back of your mind is heavenly. As for power, get the AoS (Mishimoto makes a good one if you cant afford the IAG or theyre out of stock), I recommend Cobb or Grimspeed downpipe, and for you intake, please go with a box. It will keep air temp lower for more power. Even though that sweet turbo flutter sound is incredible

[@RighteousEdits]

So. What’s the roughy price you paid for all this? My EJ lost compression in a cylinder so curious to what I’m looking at price wise 😂

[@DanielKellert]

Here is a link to the cost breakdown video! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIK5mpuAe6-Fr6M

[@sicnarf_r4746]

Very nice channel and content! Happy that i found your channel!! I always order on SSC and just found out your 5% rebate code so thats awesome!!! Btw if you are looking for a OEM full gasket kit for a 2L wrx, let me know i have one brand neew in box for sale :D

[@DanielKellert]

Ayy thank you! I just ordered a full gasket set off SSC for the WRX last night! Engine should be coming out this week 🙃

[@valrandir]

Very nice :)

[@DanielKellert]

🙌🏼

[@jackwilliams6392]

I know it sucks putting in all the effort and no reward but keep it up, build an instagram following using reels that will help a shit tone. But bro your vids are amazing keep it up

[@DanielKellert]

Thanks Jack 🙌🏼 I do make reels on Instagram actually! I should be making more though 😅

[@j_zales1390]

Fuck yea , keep on ripping her around and adding any other mods you havent touched yet

[@DanielKellert]

Oh we got more mods coming 😈

[@HeidiFegles]

Haha build break down. Money. Roll 100 dollar bills up and shove it into the intake tube and bam. High powered Subaru lol. Actually subie parts have dropped by half from 10 years ago. Most of the grlbgt crowd gave up and now it’s back to the mechanics car haha.

[@HeidiFegles]

I make 400 wheel torque every day. That’s about the limit for daily driving with any longevity. I still make regular repairs. But I just lost a trans due to excessive heat over a long race type road drive. But 400 wheel torque is insane Omni my 2200 lbs car. I logged 72% throttle on the street and it blows the tires off.

[@LosAngeles1791]

Question, can a well-maintained EJ 257 out of a 2013 hatchback STI be reliable under normal daily driving conditions???
