I don't think i saw your last J-pipe install vid that you did for VA chassis' WRX, but seeing so much smoke, removed parts, and the possibilty of having to spend about $50 just for studs makes me wildly appreciate the previous owner of my '17 WRX for installing it before me...

I love those wheels. They really help tie in the curves and notches of the '23 WRX. *PS* I spray PB Blaster on a whole day before removing exhaust stuff. And since I've done that... not a single broken bolt that still had recognizable threads. Upon re-installation I like to use a mix of super high temp grease and anti-seize. Snug em up good, fire up the car and warm it up, and than re-check each fastener that is under heat stress areas.

@@Smeedia Rotary engine make more than enough heat to seize up various exhaust bolts/studs. As well as my years of working on american V8s (the horror stories of header and X/H pipe bolts is endless) and the midwest with it's salt an corrosion, you may have to PB blast once a day for a week to make sure it's creeped as far as it can go, but it works. This has been my SOP for exhaust for at least 15 years now. Night before, spray it on, just before working on it, give another quick spray, should pop loose.

I'm with ya Tanner! I bought a creeper about 10+ years ago and it just sits in my garage collecting dust. When you work on rusty cars in the midwest, almost every nut and bolt is a struggle. Try putting all of your force into rusty fasteners and not push yourself all over the place on the creeper thus losing your effectiveness. Put your feet down as much as you want, you're still rolling all over the place. I'm with the other guy.. Cardboard is the best. That, or lift 😅

I have a 2018 fa20 and I just recently swapped my catless for my catted one and one of the grimspeed titanium studs did exactly what yours did. Had to drill the stud out and completely rethread the turbo. I think the culprit to this is no flex pipe from the turbo to the hard mount exhaust hanger. Vibrations and scraping the ground I think just wrecks the threads in some cases.

I can't remember who make it & I think I got mine off a Cornwell Truck but someone makes a die kit in both SAE & Metric that has a hinged die that you can spread apart and install at the base of the stud where the good threads are, use the removal tool it comes with which is much like the tool for a die amd back the tool off from good threads to the damaged threads. It does a really nice job at cleaning the threads and you don't need to worry about cross threading.. Look into it, its not a tool truck brand and I'm sure u can find elsewhere..

Hey man I also have the AWE touring on my 22 vb. Does yours leak water at the slip fit connections from condensation and sut as well? Mine has left a black stain over a few months from warming it up at one slip fit but the others are clear water drops. Also on a cold start I can feel air from the slip fit closest to the intermediate pipe. I’ve tightened them down now twice and being tight enough isn’t that issue and I’ve rotated them 45 degrees like awe said and yet still a slight leak.

I don't regret getting rid of the 21 STI for the Hellcat but once I move up to WA, I will need AWD again. I have been thinking about an older STI, 04-05.

If those are Gen 1 GESI Ecof cats they aren’t efficient enough. You’ll need the Gen 2 HO Ecof cats if you want no lights. I’ve recently bought some Ecof cats for my supercharged pipe, from what I can tell they flow a lot more and I don’t get the cat inefficiency codes like I got decatted. Plus I don’t have to worry about overheating and blowing out the stock cats.

Sweeeeeeeet. Maybe you can point me somewhere to find a good catback exhaust for my wifes 19 ascent that wont break the bank and possibly be able to persuade her to let me do it, granted it wont be the same as my tomie on my 07 wrx but it needs some life

Cutting the bracket causes it to be non-functional by allowing the bracket to rotate if the turbo sags. There’s a reason Subaru designed the bracket that way, and it’s really not that hard to reinstall it.

With how tight the J pipe nuts are there is no way they'll be able to rotate

Hm... I dropped the headers, turbo and Jpipe all at once. So .... Easy on the fa20/FA24 vs just Jpipe. I honestly think that's how Subaru installs it. I also did new headers and cleaned my oil pickup tube though, let me tell you there was RTV like all the other videos.
@Smeedia
@Smeedia Жыл бұрын
I feel like I should probably drop mine 😅 I didn't want to lose coolant or oil. If I end up dropping the manifold, I feel like it would be the best time to swap headers.
