Just about done with my build. Picked up an 06 STI with a blown motor, threw in a stage 2 iag short block, blouche 3.0 xtr dominator, flex fuel kit, fuel pressure regulator, 3 inch turbo back exhaust with cats and resonator, catless up pipe, ID 1050s, spearco 4inch tmic, Cobb turbo inlet and cold air intake, and a few other little things. Went and got it tuned, ended up needing a bigger fuel pump to run e85 and more boost. So I'm on a low boost tune at 16lbs pushing 340 to the wheels. Once I get the fuel pump in and we can run more boost and e85 I should be around 450. It's a long process but totally worth it 🤘 I love your car btw, super clean. Great video.

it still sounds like its a really fun street car. I just traded in my 2019 STI for a 2021 STI, got an offer I couldn't refuse. I eventually will be performing mods for the power train and I am aware the RA blocks are more stout. It all comes down to the tune. Also, the way I look at it, the STI is a totally different experience compared to the M2 or RS3. Even with the money you put into it, it still isnt the same cost as one of them and you're probably keeping up or beating them in a race.

& around a track at equal power levels unless you run into an M2 comp or CS * 💀 I had an R & was saving for an RS3 till the prices went parabolic. Didn't know about the understeer issue they had till after. MQB chasis cars are fun but everything about the STI just feels right. The confidence that the car is going where you point that wheel regardless of the surface is what won me over.

greeting from germany! i got my 2016 sti engine recently built for about 450Hp. pistons and all the stuff you need to make it not blow up at that power. (costs about 15k€) had to send the engine to a engine builder specialist for that. then my local shop f‘ed up the engine install (failed to correcly bleed the water cooling system) and cooked my poor engine to death! the engine only had 51.000km on it. fortunately they completely paid for the new engine. dont know if you heard of them but now i have a stage 1 block from subiperformance :) should be pretty reliable with that. looking forward for the tune it will be receiving soon! had to break in the new engine obviously… good luck with yours, may it run strong and long!

when i got my 2019 STI i got it from the first owner. he had it somewhere between stage 2 and stage 3. and this guy is not lying about stock injectors with a turbo inlet and downpipe. before i upgraded my injectors i would see 100-105% injector duty cycle when WOT. you can do it. but it is not safe. if your at 100% injector duty and you encounter a lean condition the ecu has nothing it can do, there is no more fuel to give. then BAM blown up EJ

thank you for the explanation, I have a 17 STI, I plan to go cobb downpipe with a AWE exhaust for straight up stage II, no mods to the intake or intercooler. Good to know that a stage III will be the only way to bolt on the intake. I went with stage II turbo back exhaust because it would put me at a sweet spot for power without having to jump into fuel upgrades.

Heard that injectors and fuel ⛽️ pump were limiting components. Did not know the OEM glass ceiling though. So assuming 15% losses OEM WHP is roughly 260 and torque 247 ft lbs. In round numbers your STI jumped to 340, a 80 WHP gain and 350 ft lbs a 103 ft lbs gain. Very respectable and easily felt by the “butt dyno” and initiated at lower revs, 3300 rpm, approaching DIT FA 20 territory. Happy “spirited” 🏎💨 but legal motoring.

that is a very high $ per HP ratio, but i totally get it being a subaru fanboy myself. i have had several and currently own my 2019 sti (stage2). but like this guy says, he got the very good parts, from what he says is a great installer, but that being said it looks AWESOME! i would say you could make the power he is making for about 5k between he fueling system, intake, and tuning tools and exhaust mods. you could forego the headers, the intercooler, bpv and the high end CF bits. you could reach this level of performance for like 4K-5k assuming you can install all your own stuff. but like i said, he did this for reliability, and he has some seriously great stuff. i love the build. looks super good my man!

Congrats - watching your videos in order. I'm shopping around for a 2021 STI at the moment. I also prefer reliability and fun daily driving over numbers. I like your point about having the turbo kick in sooner for daily driving (I have 2 kids, lots of driving around the city). My goal will eventually be 400 HP conservatively and reliably if that's even possible with an 2021. I'll have to do a lot of research and will enjoy the journey. I was disappointed when I found out that Lapis blue was no longer a color option for the 2021 STI - I may have to go magnetite grey. Keep up the great content - always great to watch.

I'm a first time subaru owner, 2019 STI. Its still under warranty so I'm keeping it stock for now. My experience has been perfect for the past 10k km but that 350 or 400 hp number seems high. I hear a lot about people who blow the motors on these cars sometimes at stock or other times at a pretty tame stage. I baby my car for the first 20-30 minutes its running etc. etc. all the things you're supposed to do to treat the car as best as possible so can you really daily a STI pushing 300+ at the wheels? I put sometimes as much as 2000km on my car each month, and obviously not every moment of that time is spent ripping on it, lots of highway mileage but I definitely have my fun with it. I LOVE my STI but I can really tell its missing some guts just being stock, I've seen people get their minds blown from just an intake and a tune. I guess my question is if I'm a responsible driver who keeps up on their maintenance, lets their car warm up etc. how big of a risk am I running if I decide to get performance mods for my car?

These are all very quality but also very expensive. I think on MAPs website you can get a Grimmspeed stage 3 package for $1800. That includes the TMIC, DP, intake and 3-port ebcs. I pieced a similar build, give or take a few pieces and I came to around $9000 for parts labor and tuning. It's very expensive, I came from an Evo X and for $10k I was able to do a custom EFR turbo kit and all the supporting bolt on mods plus a few suspension mods

Definitely takes some serious pennies to modify an STI properly. Lots of other platforms (such as evo’s) that can give you a much better bang for the buck. Although, this is the fun in it. I enjoyed my process and the route I went. The car drives beautifully and absolutely loving it. Not for everyone, but to me 110% worth it.

Why does the STI cost so much to modify? Is it because the engine is an old platform? Now I don't know a whole lot about cars, but I own a 2018 WRX I've been told that with a downpipe, intake, tune and running e85 that I would easily be pushing over 300 horsepower. If that is true is it because the fa motor is newer?

Fa is direct injection. It’s much easier to gain power on that than the old ej. To do it reliably, this is just what it takes to do it.

I do have a serious question for you about the way your setup turned out. I myself am heading down the something of the same path as you, parts you have, had been a big influence on what I wanted to do with my car styling wise. And I also appreciate you pointing me in the right direction as where to find some of them. (Still looking for the carbon mirrors replacement and the sequential lights that go on the rear views.) As far as engine goes I have my 2020 I bought back in late January (still haven't broken the 900 miles mark yet) and slowly getting the majority of my parts trickling in. Still waiting on VIS and some of the APR Carbon. Anyways the real question I have about your new stage 3+. Does it push you back into your seat. You know what I mean by almost a butterfly feeling in the stomach when you get on it, like a 2nd through/into 4th pull? I wanted to go with style and and "reinforcement" mods first. (AOS, Cyl4, Mishi rad, and IAG oil pan kit. Pickup windage tray and in-pan baffling.) Anyway I'm not aiming for a drag car, weekend track car more likely. It's not my daily but It's been a dream car since I traded my 04 STi in back in 06 to fully build an STI. I was riding street bikes to get my speed fix but I'll be 36 in about a month and a car just seems like it's alot more safer. I still want something that sits me back and gives that squirmy feeling when powering through the low gears. Sorry for the autobiography on me and my car plans. But I've followed your videos pretty close since I bought mine. And just wanted to let you know what you really helped take alot of guess work and wasted money out of my build sofar. ✌and keep up the great work. Happy and safe travels.

I appreciate the kind words and I am glad I was able to help! In regards to your questions, everyone is different. Power is subjective, just like exhaust sounds. One persons loud can be another persons quiet. My car puts you in your seat, but it's not going to take your breath away. Granted, I've been driving this car for 4+ years, so I know what to expect. If I had someone drive me and I sat in the passenger seat, it would feel very different. You have a 2020, so you have the updated motor. You can definitely push a bit more and get to that 400 mark no problem. That will definitely give you a good feeling when you are on it. But, driving my STI on stage 1+ for many years and then making the big jump to stage 3 is a nice bump in power. My only recommendation with these cars is not to expect a lot. It takes some serious coin to make these things fast, let alone reliable. It's an edge you have to titter on. Build the car the way you want to and do it safely. Let the numbers be what they are meant to be and don't try to break records. It's a fun ass car and with the bump it power, it just makes it even better.

@@Autofreakgarage I get what you're saying for sure. I've been around street racing since I was 16. And I've drove and been driven in many cars and trucks from 💩box Civic to built GTR. It's mostly torque and traction that really plants you in your seat for me. I'm just debating if I want to go stage 3 or just full build and be done (kinda). The gaps in power gains would be lovely to have the experience of, but would just cost more than what it's worth. I guess that's the best way I can put it.

This is exactly what i was looking for. I just took delivery of my '21 limited 3 weeks ago and have been looking for something like this ever since. I don't want a ton of power - just a bit more without being unreliable. Not going to pull the trigger on performance mods until the warranty is out, but until then what would you recommend? I've been looking at cat-back exhausts (invidia Q300 has been my pick so far) - i've had screaming straight piped V8's for the last 6 years. kind of done with the screaming cars. The other mod I've looked at is the subispeed limited hood with the heat extractors cut out of it. I love the carbon intake - that might be the first thing i buy with how badass it looks!
