Whats the exhaust/ turbo setup?

@@windingroadmagazine😮
This car giving me an eargasm
Probably fantasize about shoving your 4 letter c word in the exhaust don't ya?
@@remissiveslave what’s wrong with that
@@Marvin91790 man youtube don't like ppl joking about ostensibly perverted ppl.
I'm going to try and dodge the algorithm with this. How many different degenerate factions can there be a letter to, to describe the legit girls Boys team quest
@@remissiveslave just go away please for everyone's sake
@@shad3128 nope. Will not.
This is my dream car! Can't wait until I own one
Good luck haha
@@nativeoutdoors1780no luck needed
Besides my uncle in total, I know 4 people that had this car. Make sure you have a lot of money good car reliable in the winter. Lotta headaches lotta lotta of headaches good luck man.
useful tip, turn the key to the "On" position without starting the engine. Within 30 seconds, buckle and unbuckle the seatbelt 20 times. This turns off that annoying beep for the seatbelt warning/reminder.
oh, so I didn't have to cut the wire off...
I always love this sound of boxer engine from Subaru ! 😍😍
The only reason they have a cult following. If they sounded like any other turbo 4 cylinder car, they would never be this popular. Surprised sound is enough to overlook their many weak points in the engine.
@@remissiveslave are you mad the lancer was killed off or something?
@@notthatguy424 don't care but it's a shame the Lancer was axed and this turd stuck around for 16 year Olds who think because it sounds cool that it's good.
@@remissiveslave Who hurt you?
A responsible Subaru owner can definitely have a fun and reliable car. Not just the sound, the feel of the car, the AWD , the 4 doors , the fact it’s turbocharged , the look of it maybe ? The love for rally? It’s Manual?
Many reasons why I have my 07 STi, Most fun street car for me !
@@BoostedBrando oh that's right. Nevermind me, who am I trying to kid. It's a phenomenal car. I take it back. Just needed your perspective.
Nice to see someone drive a subi how they are meant to be driven
Have to agree buddy. :) Just did a test drive ... I mean the WRX. Can check it.
Thinking of the days driving my black 07 STI and how much of a fun raw car it was
selling it would have been a big mistake
@@TimberWulfIsHere especially in today’s market
I’ve seen low mileage stock examples go for $40k+ now. That’s more than the car cost when it was new. Bought my 04 blobeye sti for about $12k a little over a year ago, but it had some issues to be addressed and high mileage.
I like Mario riding Yoshi keychain on the rearview mirror.🙂
Thank you so much for posting this. I didn't realize how much I missed my '07 STi in SWP until now. You took me down memory lane with my old GDB STi.
I was literally grinning from cheek to cheek throughout the whole video.
P.S. Looks like you can't resist going into boost in this car (reminded me of how I couldn't resist not getting on it every time I drove it)
@Esh Sold it 6 years ago to get into a new 86. I found this car to be the perfect way to step into HPDE and RWD :)
You live in Michigan? I'll give you a ride.
@@KAPSGarage That's very kind of you man. I would've love to take you up on the offer but I'm in NYC. Would've loved to feel the surge of torque from 3-4K RPM and the overall toy like feeling of the car again.
@@spiritzn6 its a damn blast!! I'm going to be putting up a little build series for it once I'm caught up releasing old footage of my BMW wagon build. So if you wana relive some memories feel free to tune in!
wow the dashboard/steering of this one is in immaculate condition!
I have a 2007 WRX wagon, and its amazing, but this right here is my dream car
My dream car
Thanks for this video man. For a few minutes I felt like the owner of my dream. It took my breath away. And now I am even more motivated to come to her! All the best to you!
And Im really happy with my blob impreza wagon 125 hp😂 really looking forward to buy and sti in the future! Freaking love my wagon even tough its only 125 hp. Fun fact, did a dragrace with my friend with 160hp galant v6 and I was ahead to 60km/h, so you can drive fast up to 60😂
Ahhh yes!! Been waiting for this for 3 to 4 years!! This would literally destroy the new 2022 WRX 😅😅. Love this Hawkeye 🦅👁
My dad had a 2002 bugeye wrx turbo when I was little, bought it brand new off the lot in 02 drove it almost 400k, original engine clutch and tranny such a wicked car miss it so much.
That EJ20 engine sounds so beautiful
Ej25 with forged internals. ;)
I can see the understeer starting to build in a couple of the corners where you got the tires to squeal.
This was my favorite build to do! The Build series on this car will be coming within the next few weeks if you wana see just what was done to it.
Sold my 2015 STI in 2021 to make room for my 911 Carrera S. While my 911 is the best I miss my STI. So, now I'm waiting for my 07 STI Limited to be delivered that I found in Ohio. Cant wait, and hope its all the seller said it is.
A Fluidampr pulley really improved my 05' Legacy GT feel, significantly smoother and made it easier to shift smoothly.
I was looking into this. Im gonna have to get one ordered. Ive heard some good things about them!
Ah how I miss my b5 spec.B
Had a 2006 STI Hawkeye for 6 years. Have a 2020 STI now. The interior has been improved quite a bit. Really like the OEM 2020 wheels, short throw shifter option, steerable LED headlights, flat bottom steering wheel, gauges incl. boost, and Recaro seats. The ‘06 was slightly lighter weight with a taller hood scoop and came with terrific foglights (‘20 has none)
Newer model is so heavy just doesn’t look as good as the gc8,blobeye or hawkeye inside or outside
I’ve have my 2021 wrx sti for 6 months now I love it to death:)) but I can’t help but also love these older ones so much. Can you describe how the driving experience was different between old and new STI? Which you like better? Why? And how they are to daily?
@@Gii1234 problem with the va it’s just to heavy all I can say is jump into a gc8 sti and you’ll feel the difference straight away
@@danielbuttriss6879 you’re right it’s is heavy I came from a Pontiac solstice to a 21 sti so I can feel a HUGE weight difference. The STI is one of the most raw cars on sale today, even still it feel too over assisted. Numbish steering, number clutch pedal, light weight numb gas pedal. Can I fix any of these things with mods…? I already fixed numb and loose shifter with bushings.
@@Gii1234 easiest way to sort it out is to sell it and go after a early model probably have to import a gc8 sti there or if you wanna go with the va then obviously replace majority of your suspension have the motor built front mount and piss the stock position turbo off for a rotated set up but you’ll still have the heavy af curb weight with all the safety systems and will never get the feeling driving it as you would in a gc8 sti what I get everyday
Gosh refreshing to see + hear a modern classic 😍
Almost like brand new. :) Great video. Keep up man. Did a test drive of the WRX. :)
My dream car
I get it. :) It is addictive. Drop by to see more. :)
Classic Subaru goodness. I still have my 04 Forester XT, owned it for like 12 years, still looks like new, still not another vehicle in existence to replace it. I own newer stuff, but zero manufacturers, including Subaru, has ever built a successor.
My childhood (and adulthood) dream car! 😍
Impossible to find one of these beauties in okay shape. Let alone for a decent price they still cost the same as brand new… :( been looking for months now.
now i knew why the most viewed part is at the engine off, guy put it on second, gave me chills
I don’t care what it costs I am going to buy this car some day
Shes so beautiful !! Miss my 04 every day!! I normally love the boosted UEL rumble but your car is definitely the exception with running equal length headers
i'm gold wheels fan on STI but damn those whites look epic too
Just got my drivers license and the first car I rented was an Impreza!!... TS. Was kinda disappointed when I found out that it was an underpowered 1.6 Flat 4 that could get beaten on straights by a base Civic but boy does it corner quick!
By far the best usdm sti ever made.
This was my dream car in college
ahhhh the time of the real subaru the time of the indestructible❤️
Luckily the 2020-2021 models have forged internals, the models 2008-2019 didn’t from what I know.
Oh wow that’s good drive bro 😎👍💙😍😘🌹😘❤️
You have my dream car bro🔥
Waiting for this vedio🥺🥺😍😍
Subaru Impreza WRX STI, Beautiful 🤩😍😎
Parabéns pela máquina.
Didn't hear much boxer rumble from this one, UEL deleted?
Cool the WRX!!!
Looks like fun!
Tip let the car run on idle for a minute before turning it off
I’m about to buy an 06 regular Impreza as a first car. We’re not allowed turbocharged models where I live (while on restricted licenses) so I’ll need to make do with this beauty for the time being.
I learned how to drive stick so I can drive a WRX STI. Still wish I had one to this day.
oh yeah...thats the good stuff
I need this so bad
It is a Subaru Impreza WRX STI
She sounds quite nasty over video! Can't wait to get this build series up on the channel soon ;)
yes
Sounds almost identical to mine :)
I love Subaru
Keep grinding boys, one day... one dayyy
1:20 that whole part and then shuts the back door😂😂😂
2022,RIP STI😥😥
Bunta approved this video
Lol the picture of the sloth on the accessport on startup
Magnifique voiture
I'm curious to what your audio set up was here? What settings or was it a external mic?
Hawkeye is best, no one can ever change my mind on that! Cool car.
Fun Fact: Subaru developed an App to bring their immensely popular 'seatbelt chime' wherever you go. Waiting in line at the bank? Play the chime on endless repeat and share the Pavlovian experience with those around you. Looking for a new experience in the morning? Set your alarm to go off in the iconic chime. You can even set your "smart" coffee maker, microwave or doorbell to alert you in seatbelt chime.

How much engine horse power ? and how much wheel horse power ? and what kind of turbo you have on and which blow valve ?
es demasiado hermoso dios mio lo quiero hawkeyes
Nice car subaru impreza i love this ❤❤
I mean… how many gauges for a car REALLY need. Lol. This is my favourite Sti in recent years. Amazing car.
With an EJ... as many as you can get lol
Oil pressure and temp, boost, and AFR are the minimum in my opinion
@@JaydenET Is the top one a digital oil pressure gauge? I've only seen mechanical ones so I was confused
@@static_ls4004 I don’t know for sure but all you’d need is a sensor
@@JaydenET you do realize that the second most serious things happen, having gauges won't help you? These engines run on such tight margins it's a wonder anyone bothers.
What mods are done to this, exhaust wise?
Full catless perrin exhaust. Tomei Equal length headers, Tomei Uppipe, Cobb sf intake and Tomei turbo inlet. Aka ALL THE AIR
I died when the accessport loaded up
My favorite part! Hahaha
Nice
Do one for forester sg9,sg5, XT
Why is the idle so high?
Funny, my 2.0r hawkeye has the exact same rattle inside
This and a e30 m3 are the best sounding 4 cylinder cars
I want this car. Its my only dream and it's very expensive in my country. It takes 10 years of collecting money from the minimum wage :/...
Stiill cool))
My man started the car and it was allready up to temperature 😩
Please for next vidoe test Toyota landcruiser 2013
Dream
I thought this was a truck for a second
cool video.Like)
❤️❤️
My goodness, that waste gate. You can tell this is owned by a Subie fan lol
It sounds like it has equal length headers. Some of the rumble is gone!
Yeh mine has equal length headers and it sounds exactly the same. Not the traditional subie rumble
Still has a distinctive sound to it. Sounds great 🤩
Yeah, Tomei equal length Headers, with Tomei uppipe and full perrin catless exhaust.
haha the chime sounds like a microwave
Omg my luv
can you not heel toe? almost seems like you are braking-letting off brake-rev matching-then back on brakes.
Nothing wrong with that
So cute
I’m keeping my 2004 till it seizes! Peace.
how many car you
whats that looking glass anyone? this shit is dope
Oh yes man Subaru Turbao
Sounds like it has an ELH.
😍😍
Sounds much better without UEL headers on there. I know the "Subie" fanboys are triggered but this is where its at😍
Japan Classic))
POV lol it never get old
Yurp
SHEEEESSH
Где где... Нормальный прохват!
Why did he start data logging after getting out of the car in the beginning😂 hopefully I wasn’t the only Subaru guy wondering about that lol
Lol I came to the comments to see who else noticed. That and the upside-down digital readout for the wideband
@@Kageyama_Hiro Hahaha yeah the upside down wideband was bugging me. Mine actually came shipped upside down from AEM because I guess they dont check orientation at the factory. Easy fix, just thought it was funny.
