Well, I think she's done.
The black beastie finally got an ETS FMIC last week, and shortly thereafter I reflashed with Cobb's Stage 2 Aggressive Stock map. Currently: Wheels HRE P40, Nineteen Inch | Machine Brushed Finish Michelin Pilot Sport 2 Suspension KW V3 Coilovers Exterior Revosport 2 Piece Carbon Fiber Front Lip Revosport Carbon Fiber Sideskirts Revosport Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser Revosport Carbon Fiber Roof Revosport Carbon Fiber Kidney Grille Revosport Carbon Fiber Side Mirrors Revosport Carbon Fiber Vented Hood Revosport Carbon Fiber Trunk Revosport Carbon Fiber Trunk Spoiler Performance Cobb Tuning Access Port Stage 2 Aggressive, Stock throttle ETS FMIC Interior Revosport Carbon Fiber Front Door Panels Revosport Carbon Fiber Rear Panels I might take her down to Portland to visit Cobb Surgeline (anyone have experience with them?) to get the most out of the tune and to address some sporadic knock that I have going on despite 94 Octane. But other than that... I think she's complete! Love the 1M. Loooooove! |

I've had a Subaru tuned by Tim at Surgeline. Nothing but great things to say about that shop.
If you're going to pony up for a tune, I recommend opening up your exhaust first with a DPs and a mid pipe at the very least. |

That is route I am contemplating, tho have Forge FMIC on way. If you have done this with catless DP and mid, what did you use and how loud and/or smelly?

In my opinion if the OP is going to shell out around 400 bucks for the pro dyno tune and drive from BC to Portland for the tune it does not make much sense to do it on the stock exhaust system. |

Thanks! I think I will try Surgeline. I did mod the exhaust: forgot to list that above. Bugger. Full Akrapovich Evolution titanium with catless stainless downpipes. It is insanely loud so I had to go back to the installers to get the wireless butterfly valve, to keep the neighbours from stringing me up! Thanks for the reply! |

I may be mistaken, but unless you have an aftermarket intake and downpipes, in addition to your ETS FMIC, I don't think you should be running a Cobb Stage 2 tune.

He has the exhaust, full Akra with dps but there is no mention of an intake. An intake and charge pipe would really finish it off. He also needs to post some pictures...and why not a dyno run results too...please

PICS
Ok, ok!
Pics coming! I just didn't wanna rehash some of the old pics already on here (I'm the SR auto "Project Kaiser" guy)... Infamous posted pics elsewhere. I'll post some later this evening. |
