2016 Subaru WRX – Install, Maintenance & Calibration

Good day guys here again with another project that we have concluded the install on some goodies. Unfortunately because of the COVID19 epidemic we are not going to be putting this vehicle on the rollers just yet. Waiting on this pandemic to subside and then get back to calibration sessions.

With that said here are the list of items that were install on this ’16 WRX:
DBA T2 street rotors / Hawk pads / Grimmspeed EBCS / GS JPipe
GS TMIC / GS Stealth Intake / IAG Performance AOS / IAG TGV full kit
Invidia single CBE / Amsoil motor & Diff change / OEM subaru Trans. change / NGK spark plugs / Torque Solution EGR kit / Induction service

Some of the goodies for this install.
Rear OEM Rotor
Front OEM Rotor
DBA vs OEM
Grimmspeed JPipe
Preparation to install the IAG TGV deletes

Car is purring like a kitten and that Invidia Single CBE is doing the business and sounding very nice. We can not wait to get this vehicle on the rollers after all this virus stuff dies down and see what these parts on this build yields us. So for now a few street datalog session to make sure all is in order and stay tuned.

2019 Subaru WRX – Install & calibration

Its been a busy week of Subarus coming steady in the shop for calibration or installations of aftermarket parts. This vehicle was one of the last cars we worked on before the COVID19 pandemic hit the world.
Apart from another subaru, this one was also another military personnel that we had a pleasure in working with. His car was going to be involved in a car show that was going to be held at NOLA Motorsports, but because of the pandemic that was also canceled.
In any case parts came in for the install, so we proceeded to do the install on them as scheduled.

Here is the list of items that were installed on this vehicle:
Nameless CBE / Grimmspeed Jpipe & EBCS / Torque Solution EGR kit
IAG AOS & TGV full kit / Cobb Accessport v3 / KillerB header / GFB BOV

Torque Solution EGR delete kit
IAG Full TGV delete kit & seals
IAG TGV Ful delete kit vs OEM
Out with the OEM header and exhaust components
Killer B Motorsports Header
Killer B vs OEM
OEM 2port ebcs vs Grimmspeed 3port ebcs
GFB BOV
OEM vs GFB BOV
Nameless Performance CBE
Nameless Performance vs OEM
Grimmspeed Jpipe vs OEM

One major lesson that we found out on this install and calibration was that when ever you going to do this you better set aside some money for a good TMIC if not the power in the back end is not going to be available.
Another take away is that the Killer B header really shine and was able to bring the engine to full boost way sooner and low end torque was really elevated because of it.
Will post dyno charts when I get back to the shop to extract them from the dyno
