Noticed both of you guys have those expensive/op engine dress up from that one company. I emailed them about a month ago but no reply. Did you buy direct from the site or elsewhere?
thanks so much for making this, I've been chasing a boost leak for 2 weeks found this vid and took my intake tube off to discover mine had collapsed same as yours
I agree with you. With the COBB SF intake being the standard for aftermarket intakes for WRX/STi's, it 100% should be built better. Pipe deforming/bending like that shouldn't be the case ever. They should have had that in mind when designing it. The section of the hose where the clamp goes on should be reinforced for that price point so I think COBB holds some responsibility in this.
Brooooo, you truly be sounding like a mechanic. Love the fact you get both sides of the story about what is going on and how to resolved it. Smart thinking
Super late comment but I hope it’s insightful to some people. These Cobb intakes are great it’s the air filter and worm gear clamps they give you that are absolutely garbage. The dent you see in many of these pipes are from those worm gear clamps they hold a crap ton of pressure in one spot and it crushes anything under it. That’s why you need to invest in t-bolt clamps they are a lot better at spreading out the pressure evenly. That’s why they work prefectly the first time you install it but then start having issues when you remove them multiple times. If you have one of these intakes or plan on buying one get a Aem filter and 3 inch T-bolt clamp.
Cobb delivered me 2 bent tunes. 3rd one was good. I eventually got the code again with the replacement. My tuner is now advising to drop in a grimmspeed or stock.
Just bought a 2020 wrx that's modified.The car won't hit peak boost just found two holes in the intake after the sensor because it's resting against the frame or some bracket attached to it
I sure we all felt that frustration at one point in time on our wrxs! Good for you in being honest too. Glad everything worked out. Definitely enjoy the vids!!!!
Yeah had some weird vibrations on my big sf turns out there is a metal bracket from the farm that juts out just below the maf location and it was slamming into that scuffed up the metal but thankful no major dent :/
Bro I have the same issue with the same Cobb intake and exactly thoes crazy numbers on accesport.. super frustrated can’t find the issue your video are helpful for sure
I have the same COBB Big SF intake on my 2017 WRX with code P0171. I cleaned the MAF sensor with MAF sensor cleaner as well checked for vacuum leaks. I'm also on my second COBB MAF extension harness.
Love the video brother! I’m unfortunately have the exact opposite issue of running too lean but only at idle. Have had a few times over the past couple months it’s getting as high as +30-40 correction… definitely would appreciate some help if anyone has more insight on this fuel pump? Spark plugs potentially?
man, thank you so much for making this video. not only have a been experiencing the same issue but i found it was the same solution today. i changed the turbo inlet first bc i thought maybe that was broken, then i removed my boomba bpv and put my stock back on thinking it was that, cleaned my maf several times never inspecting my intake pipe until watching this video. today i went outside to clean the maf again but also inspect the pipe and the pipe was unrounded. thanks again man.
So glad it helped! This is exactly why I wanted to document this entire issue. Hopefully you got figured out! Thanks for taking the time to check out the video! 🙏
Man I’m having the exact same problem. Af correction 1 hit 34.83 yesterday. Got a small bend in the opening of my pipe. Thinking about just switching out for the GrimmSpeed
Yo man! Your channel is super insightful. I'm running into the same "issue" where my AF learning1 fluctuates from -25 to -33. Had a few times where the engine stalled during idle (rough idle). Cleaned the MAF sensor and the MAP sensor with CRC cleaner. I THINK that might of fixed the rough idle and my car idles OK now but still getting weird AF learning1 numbers. Going to try out what you did. I Got a Red FA20 too! Yours is a nice build! Keep up the informative content 🙏
Thanks so much man! You can also buy a new MAF cable, that might help! Currently having issues with the car after cleaning the intake and sensors. It’s running rich which it has never done before. Bought a new intake filter and coupler to see if that helps!
@@ronfromportland Right on. Considered buying a new MAF cable, which would you recommend? Just trying to work down a checklist before I buy anything "new" but appreciative of the suggestion.

@@Bigjawnnn117 I ended up putting the stock intake back on, but I had a much larger issue that the big sf intake made 1000x worse But the issue with the intake was that something hit the tubing and it bent it just right to throw a code, I bent it back and sold it to a friend who has had 0 issues in the 4 months he has had it on
@@ronfromportland yeah you'll see this video slowly grow for sure. It's a big help to document issues for other people. It at least helps them brainstorm
It was for sure the dent in the pipe. Once I addressed this issue, the AF numbers became normal. Since the maf is on the tube, I guess it can be considered a maf leak like you said. It doesn’t matter anymore because I ended up blowing a turbo a few months later 😂
I had the same exact issue in the same exact spot on mine. I noticed when I got it out of the box from Cobb ran it anyways was good for 2 months and all good then it started shutting off at stop signs check engine light p0172 extreme fuel trim rich. Wish I had kept it know that I’ve seen this
im having the same issue.. thing is i already swapped my stock intake back in cleaned my MAF and MAP sensors and it still giving me the same issues. I think i will have to take it to a Subaru specialty shop and have them look at it and see if they see something im not seeing or if they can find the problem. 2019 WRX
I’ll have to check mine to confirm if it’s AF learning or correction since I noticed some spikes up to -30. Emailed logs after some pulls to tuner and they said everything is normal but I still have some lingering doubts lol. During cold starts it does gradually drop and pick up until about 900-1k then stabilizes which is normal for this tune.
@@ronfromportland yeah mine runs pretty smooth better than stock (lol) but that's kinda the point but yeah AF correction will sometimes hit up to -30 but hover around .78 to like -11 or something
The end of the tube was bent which was causing the issues since it wasn’t sealed properly. The dent probably has very minimal impact on the way it runs.
Ron, did you check your pcv? Perhaps it is stuck open and fouling the map sensor. Looks like you have a lot on the sensor, do you have to clean it that often, seems abnormal.
I was going to dig deeper and check the PCV but bending back the intake fixed the issue. Thanks for the suggestion! Regarding the sensor, yes, completely normal for my car. It has been like this for as long as I can remember. I clean it often.
@@ronfromportland ok, I’d keep track of it. Get that GS Stealthbox installed asap! I have one as well ready to go in my Stage 2 car, but need to schedule a pro tune session.

So ima just buy a Grimmspeed since I can’t really do much more to bend it back. And also. The p0172 code only comes up if it’s at -35 for more then 10 seconds. That’s y the check engine usually comes up after a few pulls. I learned this from phatbotti tuning faq. Sucks cus my Cobb intake was less then 1k miles
I never use any of these aftermarket intakes, Everyone I know that had one had so many problems after they installed them between erratic running, stalling, Weird AFR readings, Put the stock unit back on the car and let it alone, You will gain 0 HP from an intake on these cars, These cars are to expensive to repair when engine issues arise from aftermarket junk, 99% of engine failures on these cars are from low oil or poor tuning with aftermarket bolt ons.

The link is my 2019 subie with that problem.

Definitely can understand how annoying that is. Hopefully you get it figured out, let me know how it goes. Just watched your vid, that was rough haha
I have code 0172 no leaks
Check MAF extension cable to see if it’s dirty/corroded.
Maf leak dude
