Chris05STi's 2005 OBP STi Journal (Black Betty) Major Install BEGINS!!!!!! - Page 181

***VSGTS14*** · 07-21-2008, 07:35 AM

it's going to be a major project with all these mods being installed at once

Chris05STi · 07-21-2008, 08:18 AM

^Shouldn't be a problem with Kiwi and my friends helping

!

Here are pics of the APS IC piping. Alright I need everyone's help.

1. Where would the TiAL BOV Flange weld to? Would you cut off that small looking pipe off and weld the flange there?

2. Does this appear to be aluminum or stainless steel?

3. Where would I put the M15 Meth Nozzle for my Meth Injection? Would it be right before the throttle body or further away?

Anyone with any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! Please, I need some input!!! Thanks!

Chris05STi · 07-21-2008, 10:40 AM

Anyone?

Chris05STi · 07-21-2008, 01:26 PM

Ordered up a Mild Stainless Steel flange for the TiAL 50mm BOV from Full-Race. Should be here by the end of the week! Thanks Steve fo sneaking my order in with yours!

Chris05STi · 07-21-2008, 02:38 PM

Thanks to my buddy Wolfplayer, we found out that the piping is prob SS!!!! Also, thanks to him and other people's opinion I am going to place the Meth Nozzle right before the TB!

***VSGTS14*** · 07-22-2008, 07:46 AM

where else would you place the meth nozzle LOL, isn't that the best spot?

Chris05STi · 07-22-2008, 08:51 AM

I have seen some applications where people mounted the nozzle in the general area where the plastic coolant res tank is. But it def makes sense now that I think about it and from what people said, the nozzle should be placed as close to the throttle body as possible AFTER the BOV so it won't cause a failure with the BOV, because Meth is corrosive.

Well, my awesome g/f got me some amazing things for our 1 year anniversary. She did the research and found the parts, and only knew what I wanted from hearing me blab about my STi and the turbo I am putting in. I gotta say, I am finally happy to have someone like her in my life that loves me for who I am!!! Here are the things that I got:

Heres everything:

Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator and the TurboSmart Liquid Filled Fuel Pressure Gauge. She is so good that she even ordered the fittings and the 90 degree return line. *Wolfplayer, she says thanks to your thread and pics of your setup. She actually went online here on IWSTi and researched what parts were needed to install this! I can't say enough

!

NGK 1-Step colder spark plugs. I can't overlook any areas, so yup, I am even going to replace the spark plugs for my tune!

A 2003-2004 JDM OBP Subaru STi 1:18th scale made by AutoArt. I have always wanted this one since it came out. I plan on eventually getting the AutoArt model to match my 2002 WRX Bugeye!

And finally, my own digital camera! I don't have to use my parents dinky 3.2 megapixel anymore!!! Its a Cannon PowerShot SD870 Elph, she even got me a 2 gig memory card for it!

Chris05STi · 07-22-2008, 07:27 PM

So heres whats left:

-Intake Manifold to TGV
-Deatschwerks 850cc Injectors
-ProFlow Design Bored & Ported Throttle Body
-Okada Projects Plasma Spark Plug Boots
-ATi Harmonic Damper (The WRX gets the Perrin one)
-Cobb High Volume Oil Pump

Then from Geoff:
-Vac lines
-EWG Dump Tube for the TiAL 44mm EWG Setup

JJ18Sniper · 07-22-2008, 07:35 PM

I am up for traveling 75% of the time...per Monster.com

The real question is...is she happily engaged?

I think I just busted out a long-distance-blind-date-leg-hump for car parts. Lets hope it works out.
