It's such a huge difference between the two cars. I'd road trip in the soup over the Impreza any day. I love how different they are because it makes me appreciate one car over another in different ways.
Almost done with the oil drain. Prob work on the alternator drop down after this. If I can...
Interesting article! Thanks for sharing. I want to cut the manifold on that line and use a aluminum tube. The tough part will be to cut off the idle valve flange cleanly so I can reuse it.
Another reason for the FFIM is that the compressor of the holest is so big that IC pipe will be tight in...
Thanks guys!
I have a ms3pro that I will be wiring in after I get the engine mechanically done. Shooting for 350whp with a great street power band.
Progress is slow right now. I had to modify the oil drain because the 10an fittings would not fit with the compressor housing. The ID of a 10an...
I would contact Aaron before you buy it. Might be able to get you a few different fittings to accommodate your set up exactly. I am also running a stock exhaust manifold. I personally do not think you will run into an issue with the 90 degree compressor outlet but you will need to disconnect the...
Would like to thank Aaron at Driftmotion for working on this project for the 7mgte and mk3 lovers. I contacted him about a custom kit and 2 weeks later it was at my door.
Here is the link for the kit now online

Rollus. - I will take pics of the inside for you.
Janch - yes I considered that. I personally don't like the oem shape lol, so that's what I want to go with the 4" tube.
The tube will match the opposite side of the engine bay for the 4" intake too :).
I want to try and cut off the oem...
Awesome. Thanks guys. I think the 110 will suit my needs just fine.
I took off the intake manifold to help visualize how I will do the FFIM with stock TB, where I would need to cut the plenum, idle air flange has a little lip in the inside so I'll need to save that.
I can get a 1/8th thick...
Got some good pics for everyone. Few questions along with them.
- Is this the AC fan? I have 1 push fan, 1 pull fan.
- Experiences with BOV? Has anyone experienced recirculating vs non on their own car. The noise does not matter to be, looking at the Bosch OEM 110 part number one.
- would...
that looks very nice Janch! i decided to go with the black.
I have a thing for a black/polished or chrome look right now.
How did you shine the intake manifold?
Cut up the eBay down pipe. Will work better than I planned. All I will need to do it weld the 4 3/8 holset vband and extend the vertical section a few inches. Great way to save me some $$.
Done for this week until I get some parts.
Flex section is a true 3" too.

Thanks Sheedy. I can get a he351 flange, will be here Friday. Which is a 4 3/8 vband. No one makes a housing for the he351, at least that will help my issue. The housing is pretty straight forward, no plated vband like I have seen other holsets with.
My plan is to shorten that heater hose...
-Valve covers with stainless bolts
-Manifold and adapter installed
Mocked up the turbo for you guys and start to visualize the down pipe. Will be tight with the heater hoses but I can make it work.

Thanks! The dealership I work at renovated the entire building so all the old lifts were available on the super cheap. Paid $500 for that bad boy!
