[QUOTE=Spektre;743876]yes, thankyou, for being the five hundreadth person to tell me..[/QUOTE]

Fuck the others, listen to me ya cnut! :D

Low km 2009 JDM STI - (would have loved a Spec C ...)
- EJ207
- Twin scroll IHI VF49
- Quad AVCS

I have already ordered the necessary parts to do the air pump delete. I will hang onto it until next time someone is quoted $2200 from Subaru to replace theirs ;)

I'll be pulling the red "drive by wire" manifold off as we had done the cable throttle conversion on my original engine, so manifold / throttle body / tgv / injectors etc will be for sale.

Cable manifold will sit on these bad boys, TIC composite TGV deletes

Bolting onto this will be the 09 STI TMIC I ran on my previous engine, I scored the TMIC brackets on this engine too which is killer!

I'll delve into one of my "box'o'parts" that I have been collecting for the last couple of years and grab out the Cusco engine / gearbox mounts (under the foggie covers) Also a custom Kap Industries pitch mount (post up a pic Russ?)

[QUOTE=Mike;743860]Plastic manifold was only on the EJ255's. EJ257's still copped the good mani.[/QUOTE]

It is also on Japanese EJ20xx :) (my MY06 EJ20Y had one)

Hrmm what else:
- Needs an exhaust, I got part of the twinscroll dump which is basically only good for the flange (hehe, flange) pic below. But I don't see the point in putting something stock on
- Silicone intake. Not necessary but I [i]want[/i] one.
- locate my collection of top feed injectors & decap
- Crank pulley. Once again, not necessary but you feel the difference
- Clutch. Likely a twin plate ORC if I can rustle up the cash.

Hrmm, that should be about it. I am having a very hard time not pulling the exhaust manifold & turbo off to port / ceramic coat / wastegate mod. Who doesn't like 500rpm less lag?

Actually at one point 4 years ago I actually owned a OEM twinscroll dump complete, I have no idea where it went :/ Almost as useful....
