Hey guys

Just wondering what my stock PSI should be??
Im only get 8 max and it sucks
Also i have a weird rattle in my engine when you rev it... its down near the turbo but cant tell what it is?
Wondering if it has anything to do with my boost issues to?

dok dok...

in all seriousness... u might have blown a turbo. Is there any white smoke when you rev?

Could be a heat shield vibrating, but it does depend on what the rattle sounds like..

Replace the pill in the vacuum lines.

Tighten bolts on turbo heat shield/exhaust to stop rattle.

Anything other than that and it will need to see a Subaru workshop... Check the workshops sticky.

And my pill is not there so where can i get one quickly and how much?
Same for the turbo

How many K's are on the car? MY01's have a catalytic converter in the up-pipe (Only WRX to have this) and sooner or later, usually after the car has some mileage on it, the cat begins to break up and go through the turbo, which usually results in turbo death.

You say you have a TBE on the car, was the up-pipe done also?

I just spoke to sik em wrex and they said that a MY01 doesnt have a restrictor pill and that it will only run 8 pounds unless you install a boost tee and its the tee that has a restrictor in it??
