Hey, so I want to send a shout out to Kiwi Ian and Delvin for the great work doing the clutch replacement in 4 hours with the valve delete. It is such a change and have not stalled it. The old clutch was worn to the rivots so the new turbo when it goes it would of smoked it on the dyno...haha I have a very few pics of the install but here you go. I will get pics of the Grimmspeed up-pipe I received from TiC. It is great looking and it will compliment the turbo install which should take place end of July.









And also, the infamous VF39 Waste-gate crack(fresh rust, so it much of just happened because it was not there 20k ago.

Hey All, well I finally took pics of the up-Pipe for everyone to see...The welds are awesome and they are fully ported out. Also, got my 2007 STi Limited Dash kit in for my car. I thought the metal shifter surround was included and have send an email to Jamie for a answer. For now, heres Pics. Thanks to TurninConcepts.com and SubaruGenuineParts.com for all the help.

Nice....wrap that up-pipe up!!!! Try and protect the engine from any heat trying to get in. So what FMIC are you now going to get?

The dash kit doesn't come with the shifter surround, atleast not that I know of.

and here is what I need to get an opinion on.

Definites:
