Chris05STi's 2005 OBP STi Journal (Black Betty) Major Install BEGINS!!!!!! - Page 146

Chris05STi · 03-15-2008, 03:22 PM

JSCSpeed.com sells it at a great price! It was cake. Just Spray the entire DP with 2 coats, wrap it and make sure its really tighten without any loose ends. Then you just clamp it like I did with hose clamps to hold it down. After that, spray it with a good 1 coat and your done. 1 can was more than enough, I still have some spray left and wrap to boot.

what would it cost, estimate, do do DP, and midpipe / CBE to the canister? i know i want to do the DP this time around since my WRX had quite a bit of heat soak, but was thinking about doing the midpipe in the catback as well... probably wont though...

as for estimate i meant for the can, and enough wrap and materials etc. to do correctly

JJ18Sniper · 03-15-2008, 04:00 PM

So what's on order next?

Chris05STi · 03-15-2008, 07:21 PM

Bishop - To wrap the DP it was about $50 with the wrap and spray, maybe $60 with the clamps. Figure another $60'ish to do the midpipe section. Honestly, don't really need to do the midpipe section, you could spray it, but wrapping it won't really do that much I don't think. The reason why I did the DP was to cover in the heat away from the engine bay.

John - Goomba whats up?! Prob a down payment on the Full-Race exhaust setup or DW 850cc injectors!! What about you, whens the CF goodness coming in?

JJ18Sniper · 03-16-2008, 08:11 AM

Soon I hope... watch Chris@XX's thread, you may want to make sure your tuned soon with changes over there.

***VSGTS14*** · 03-16-2008, 08:31 AM

how's it going brotha.

Chris05STi · 03-16-2008, 10:13 AM

John - Yah I heard about that, if Chris can't tune it, then I will have to go to Agile I guess.

Billy - Hey whats up? Nothing much, just trying to get parts here to get that damn SZ55 turbo in already. I read the Blitz manual, all the crap is in Japanese!! Any english manuals?!?

***Szumita*** · 03-16-2008, 10:36 AM

car is awesome man!

Chris05STi · 03-16-2008, 02:59 PM

^Thanks yours is looking tight as well!

munky69 · 03-16-2008, 06:34 PM

just follow the pictures!!

i hear the blitz one is a wierd install.

Chris05STi · 03-16-2008, 06:55 PM

^I don't understand the damn pictures. The Japanese always show their version of a picture of what we would rather see. I hate it when they have a stupid arrow pointing to something, then its says: WARNING: @$!@#!@# !@# !@# @!. I mean why tease me with the ENGLISH word of WARNING, then having it followed by a bunch of characters that look like they are trying to kill eachother. Maybe Al or Greg can help me install it. I know Al used to have it on his OBP STi.

F Agile. They charge 500 for a protune on a dynapack. No thanks.

However, Dave (stee) did gain great results from them and ran a great time.

Besides that I would not ever go to them.

Chris05STi · 03-17-2008, 03:52 AM

If Chris at XX-Tuning isn't around, I would trust Agile. Unless suggest someone else? $500 for a tune isn't that bad, aslong as its reliable, safe, and kick arse tune. Thats all that matters to me.

***VSGTS14*** · 03-17-2008, 09:10 AM

yea 500 i thought was normal..it was what 395 for a map at xx with doug + 125 and hour for dyno time.
i'll probably be heading to agile.

Chris05STi · 03-17-2008, 09:17 AM

Agile is closer too. If Chris isn't at XX-Tuning when I am ready, then I will def go to Agile. Phil's car is a pure beast when I was in it, def shows throughout the tune.
