can't find him on this forum and can't get onto the other one to find out about some stuff...

Any ideas if all the bits will fit on an '02 STi???

I'm changing my manifold from a 99WRX to a 02STI and trying to find out if I can get a bigger inlet pipe under the STi manifold. Maybe they're all the same.

I think we all order together and get one big bag of Silicon bits sent over to save on post ?

jamie, geoff watts actually managed to get the GD STI inlet pipe squeezed under the GC manifold, theres quite a bit more room underneath them actually- the only consideration is the GC power steering pump.

I'm having Verso done on Aug 2 so I won't be able to get these parts beforehand. ASG will be pulling out stuff from the gaurd and all replacing the filter, pretty sure a new panel filter will be going in but could be a pod, not certain as yet . If I do these parts (Silicone bits) later will it affect the tune? As far as I can tell they are just replacement material, not higher flowing etc or are they?

The silicone bits are well better flowing than the stock hunka junk, will probably need a retune unless your running the stock ecu which has a bit more leeway in it.

Im happy to fire off a PM myself if it helps you guys out, have you checked your junk box for the activation email?

Just had a quick search and it seams he isn't.

Pete has said any one who is interested email him ASAP as it is coming to a close in less than a week.

If anybody has any questions regarding inlets, short fat bits or y-pipe kits, feel free to email me at pete_mac @ hotmail.com ASAP as this is drawing to a close. Happy to combine postage if required too.

Stace,
I have sourced a MY02 STi Manifold with decaps. What were the flow figures for the STi manifold compared to MY99 one ?

Also bit off topic how did you go finding a 4.444 CW+Pinion ? PM me if ya like.
Thanx

I've been in contact with Pete on Rexnet.

If anyone else is ordering these inlets let me know and we will combine postage back here to WA.
