2008 slvr STI

SLVR08STI · 05-26-2008, 03:49 AM

I bought a 2008 slvr sti back in March, and i love this car. I have alway had fast fwd cars never a awd. So that means that i needed to lean how to drive this thing.

My last two cars were, 1996 Dodge Avenger with an Eclipse GST swap, and a 2005 dodge SRT-4. My SRT-4 is the fastest so far, but I'm going to work on that once I save some mod money.

The list of things that I want to do to the steeee:

1: STS & cobb AP (stage 1)
2: Turbo XS d/p (flash stage 2)
3: TBE
4: intake & springs
5: uppipe
6: pro tune
7: DOM 2.5 & fuel system upgrade
8: front mount (same time as the turbo & fuel)
9: headers (same time ^^^^^)
10: protune (same time^^^^^)
11: then all the looks and weight reduction stuff

Not much loot here!! I'm in the military. I just need to spend money wise, like car stuff over food

I might be doing something dumb but I don't have any money and I want some kind of sound out of the exhaust. So I'm going to take off the muffler and have an exhaust shop fab up a small pipe from the axle back w/ no muffler. I have already taken the muffler off and it sound really good not that loud at all. Well it might be loud to some, I used to have an srt-4 and I love the the sound of the exhaust and it comes from factory w/o a muffler.

slyguySTI · 06-07-2008, 05:56 PM

i know all about that, im in the military too. im at FT knox... what a place

SLVR08STI · 06-16-2008, 03:07 PM

I did the muffler delete and it sounds sick!

I will post a video when I can.

STI_SLC · 06-25-2008, 06:17 PM

why exactly if you did that wouldnt you just feed it out the left side instead of going over to the right side? weird.

paikman · 06-25-2008, 06:43 PM

Why did you do crush- bent, AND out the longest routing possible???

thats what i was thinking.

SLVR08STI · 07-01-2008, 04:51 PM

This was only a temp thing, I'm going to have exhaust depot in Ft. laderdale, FL do a cat-back and a invidia dp.

But to explain, the reason it is going out the right side is the exhaust shop said they couldn't do the bend to go out the left. There is know shops that I know of around Orlando, FL that do manderal bend. The only reason I did this is for a little sound, and it actually made the car feel better up top. I also think it sound really good, even better than my friends 05 w/ cobbs tbe.
