Well, haven't gotten that picture of the exhaust, but after looking at some pitures online, it looks like its an SPT catback, oh I forgot to mention its also got an STi front strut tower bar too.

Thats actually the pics I used!! Thats a good WRX thread, but I think I'm going to do a downpipe and Cobb Accessport stage 2 when I get the money. Then later down the road do either an SPT intake or the Cobb with the heat shield box.

For now I just need to find where to tap into this thing for my Prosport Mechanical boost gauge.

Skip the Accessport and use OpenECU/ECUFlash like most of us Evo guys do. Janelle's WRX will actually be ECUFlash dyno-tuned once we get her new downpipe on.

Keep it stock and convert the DSM to E85 and maybe get a bigger turbo. :)

YES! And speaking of that, can I get a ride in my old car sometime? I miss it....

Or maybe a Shep stage 5 tranny.

Well, this is the setup I was thinking of for the DSM:

fp 3076HTA
fp Cast race manifold
fp 4" intake tube
Tial xxmm Ext wastegate
E85 tune
some kind of 02 housing, probably custom
shep stage 4+

Yes, scheides, you can get a ride in it, I just don't know when It'll be on the road again!

I was actually thinking of finding a used downpipe on MNSubaru, and also maybe an used unmarried v2 accessport, just so I could do it all myself.

All this shit is only going to happen if I have the money though. Hopefully the G.I Bill will go up some more for fall semester.
