calebz Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 This is from another site. I know a couple of you have seen it. The guy claims to be a 15 year Subaru tech, but I have to call BS on this.. 13s with nothing but raised boost? and has anyone actually tried to get the full 15psi from a VF7? I Have turned boost 'in standard trim' to 11 Psi with no Cooler and Pulled Cyl Head Bolts from the Block, ONE PRODUCT....VHT TORQUE-TIGHT-COPPER-GASKET-SPRAY, NEXT PRODUCT, (a bit tricky first time round), RE-COIL THREAD INSERTS or 'Porsche-Type' CASE-SAVERS, trouble is, if you do it yourself, (is there any other way?), it is awkward to get the 'TWO INSERTS' to 'align themselves so-as a bolt, (11x1mm from memory), will pass through both without friction, (enemy when torquing.....DER!). That's what I DID, THENM TURNED THE BITCH UP TO 15 PSi, DISCONNECTED FUEL CUT AND RAN LOW 13's with standard ENG management!! Ended up popping the C/Wheel in a 31 Spline EFI 82 Series BOX!!!! Chucked it all away, (sold it to a HILL CLIMB FRIEND), and bought the 95 REX.....but that's another story......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Id have to agree. Sounds like a load of BS really. He lost the last ounce of credibility by calling this newest car a 95 "rex"... its not a dinosaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baccaruda Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 where's the video of the guy at the car show who "VTEC'ed his mustang"? *cell phone rings* hold on, maybe that's my VTEC rep..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
