Question New sti owner

Hello every one I just got my 2006 sti. And I am looking to modify it. I am not sure exactly how to go about doing that though with out causing any damage to my car. I curently have an HKS type zero turbo timer and a TurboXS H-rfl bov. Next I am looking to install an Invidia G2000 turbo back exhaust. Followed by a Cobb stage 1 Access port. Then a cold air intake. Am I going in the right direction or am I way off? any help would be appriciated

first of all that bov needs to go. and if you are going to install a turbo back exhaust you will need a cobb stg2 map not stg1. and with a cold air intake a protune is recommended.


oh btw its invidia g200 and its a catback. and just search around the forums, those questions have been asked and answered many times.

Get the parts you want and talk to a local tuner about what to tune with.

I like the sound of the bob so it is gonna stay. And yes I did mess up on the exhaust. It is a g200 invidia turbo back exhaust. I found it here. Invidia G200 Turbo Back Exhaust, , Subaru STi Invidia G200 Turbo Back Exhaust

The turbo timer and bov are both in the wrong direction but otherwise you have the right idea. READ the Stickies and research first.

Turbo timer is unecessary for your model (06STI) and I don't want to open up a can of worms about BOVs but the stock BPV prob gives better results but may not "sound" as loud. oops I opened it. Just read about it

Why is the turbo timer unecessary for the 06? What is different?
