Turbo upgrade: a picture is worth a thousand words...

Polka Pickle...aka: Dom 2.5


APS DR525 FMIC (Black core with red piping)



Boost Control...via Prodrive EBCS


Cooler air by APS (65mm maybe 70mm if tuner agrees)


Gimmick aftamaf and inlet


Keeping it cool Mishimoto radiator and Gimmick hoses




Fuel supplied by Deatchwerks 750cc top feeds


Colder heat by NGK


Up to the turbo by Grimmspeed


I plan on using the IWG on the turbo...I may go EWG...still up in the air.

If so I will use ...


Also, if I get brave and $$$ allows I will go with this stuff...

Grimspeed P&P and coated TGV's



Also a P&P intake mani.


and
P&P and coated throttle body


Finally to decrease heat
Phenolic spacers


Hopefully all of this will be in my posession in under a month and in before winter arrives.

Tuning will be by EFI Logics (Chris) and I am hoping to get some good power running 93oct. and 50/50 meth.

Congrats man, it seems like this was kinda spur of the moment since u didn't really announce much thought on the subject, but its cool none the less Really lookin forward to seein what all goes down and what goes into the car.

Also, if the STi doesnt get driven too often, could always do the port n polish work yourself

Nice list, may I highly suggest you go for the TGV deletes and def get the 8mm spacers. Any reason why your going with the 750cc's? You could throw in a cooler thermostat while your in there. You have the spark plugs and walbro fuel pump already? I think the 70mm CAI is def worth it, just can drive it around without a tune.

^Yah, I figured that, but as it was 6:45 am and I had to be at work at 7 am, I was way too tired to search ahha, so just posted just to make sure.

Now that I have some coffee in me:
The APS DR-525 completely gets rid of the stock bumper beam and is replaced by their bumper beam/FMIC support brace. But, I do hear you can retain the fog lamps with this FMIC. This unit is WAY better than the Perrin units since the piping is a bit bigger. Just make sure you add T-Bolt clamps to that list. Compliments of the famous WolfPlayer:
http://bescaredracing.com/sti/interc...artsystems.JPG
Go to Hose Clamps, LED Truck Lights, Heavy Duty Truck Parts, Split Loom, Trailer Parts, Fuel Warmers and type in: T-Bolt Clamp in the search and it will bring you to all the clamps, and just pick all the clamps off that list and then order it! Trust me, these are WAY better than the provided clamps from APS, and you don't want to be driving somewhere and all of a sudden that damned clamp in the one area you can't get to came loose and you don't have the tool with you! I hope this redeemed me for being a nOOB earlier ahahha.

Nice list of upgrades you got going there.

FYI the Prodrive Boost solenoid WILL tick in the cold and it will be annoying. Just thought I'd let you know as I had one before I "degraded" my car back to stage2 for auto-x BSP class.

It makes a tic tic tic tic sound!!!!

i think its great, the power will match the look of the car and it will be complete (like a 360 modena...great looking car...not enough power for its looks)

It's interesting that APS of all the companies does not supply T-bolt clamps.

I guess I will add them to the list

I am pretty stoked about this....I am kinda bored and have nothing to to to the STI.

Joe
