If anyone’s wondering how long or how difficult it is, on a 2004 wrx 2.0L with a hoist with no prior experience I would estimate 2-3hrs, with a bit of experience 1.5-2hrs. On the ground I’d say expect 3hrs, not as difficult as some make it seem. I was scared to attempt it, but this video is exactly how it went. Huge help!! Very happy with the results:)
Just installed the Black Competition Version on my 05 STI. Quality is superb and car seems to run smoother with the thicker pickup tube, extra baffling, and greater oil capacity. Install wasn’t nearly as difficult as some people made it out to be. Patience and the proper tools will get the job done. 10 out of 10 product and well worth the money. Now I can go to the track without worrying about oil starvation, lol. Thanks IAG 🙏🏾
Car seems to run smoother? An oil pan and pickup wouldn't make a noticable difference in regular driving unless something was wildly wrong with your stock setup to begin with
@@VS666 I literally said that “it seems” to run smoother because it’s a thicker pick up tube. That’s literally all, lol. Nothing wrong with my old oil pan other than it beginning to rust a little. Had to get a new oil pan anyway and figured I’d take a shot at IAG. It’s a great product nonetheless. Take it for what you will 🤷🏾♂️
@@davconelectric I do actually! That’s why I said what I said. Could be a placebo effect too, but I did notice that it did seem overall happier when pushed to the limit.
Running the street kit on my 19' STi DD. Originally had some trouble with the dip stick o-rings sealing properly but i got that sorted out. Gives me peace of mind on spirited drives.
I’ve been running a black street series pan for a year and a half now, and it’s been great, takes about 5.5-5.7 quarts to fill it up. I have an aem oil temp gauge plugged into it. I will say the added capacity definitly helps with temps.
Great video and overall design. Was I the only one who noticed he installed a new "WIX" oil filter after the new pan swap and then there was a different Yellow filter shown at the end?
Before I changed the oil filter, I filmed my B-roll. That's why the old filter is still on at the end of the video. I'm impressed you noticed! - Foster
Thanks Foster!! I didn't know about disconnecting the pitch stop and raising the engine; you just saved me a days worth of heart ache and and thrown tools!
When you said you would never see the oil pick up again I thought how cool my old Porsche sump is. It's got a removable panel to access the pickup with an easy to clean reusable wire screen filter. There's often little bits of RTV gasket being kept away from the pickup. You've gone to great lengths to make a superior product. It could be a two piece with a removable bottom. Make the screen magnetic if you do.
Sounds great, but my wife has an Outback and I have a Forester. They’re just vehicles to get around in. But if I were much younger I’d be needing one for my WRX
@@theiagchannel it’s a little hard to drift a Forester with my wheelchair flying around in the back 😂. My wife told me that she wants a WRX when she retires. My wife is a feisty redhead and is a bit younger than me, so she has a ways to go before retiring. I surely miss fast cars, When I was 18, I got a speeding ticket for driving 140mph in a 55mph speed limit. I was lucky that I didn’t go to jail, but my fine was $997, which was a LOT of money back then. If I knew that I wouldn’t go to jail, loose my license and only have to pay $997 now, I’d do it again in a heartbeat !
Why did you use the exhaust pipe to raise the engine? I am changing my oil pan soon. Hoping to use wood spacers after using the old oil pan as a point to raise with jack
i want one so bad but $730 for the black one is just too much for me right now. i got a lot of other issues with my FXT that need to be addressed first. but ill get one eventually.
lol man that glove took a beating would have been just as easy to take the exhaust manifold off lol did mention if you reuse any of the or pan o rings?
how did it fit?! I'm trying to install this on my AUS delivered gc8, and the sump is unable to clear the gc8 subframe, the sump extends too far out for fitment on the gc8
Damn foster, clean shaving, then growing a red beard, getting tattoos, then back to clean shaving. Does this install normally take weeks? The time it takes to grown an entire red beard then shave it?
Can I ask about the shape of this pan? I thought the whole point of the stock oil pan shape is to make a tubbed version and keep the oil right next to the pickup. In that case, the stock OEM EJ oil pan is already quite good in design to prevent oil starvation. The IAG pan looks flatter, where oil can slosh around at higher lateral G force. Can you comment on this shape differences? thanks. I will probably stay with my reliable OEM STI pan, it hasn't caused any catastrophic failures for the 50k miles I've driven across two different STIs during my ownership.
Yeah I’ve seen tons of people use there stock ej20-ej25 oil pans, the main concern is the pick up tube cracking or failing after a certain amount of miles. I do know for a fact the killer bee and even iag pans are completely different in size and shape. Even the baffle ks different I’ve always wondered if the shape of the pan was a contributing factor on why the pick up tube starves of oil. Good question
i was scrolling a forum about this, and the killerb employee that developed their oiling products said that unless you’re using your car on the track a lot, you should be fine with a stock pan and an aftermarket pickup and baffle
@@davconelectric i think it’s worth it to get the pickup just for peace of mind, but the oil pan probably isn’t necessary. people have said their oil doesn’t get up to temp because of increased capacity which is just as bad.
What was the purpose of the 2 little dabs if the Fuji Bond? I am curios as to why 2 little dabs and not the entire surface. But I am also confused because the pan already has a gasket. Thanks in advance
This was an awesome video! was looking for a video just like this on this product! just a few questions: can you still use the readings on the stock dipstick with the the new higher capacity pan? or are modifications required to get an accurate reading and will it fit an ej205 gc8 wrx Thanks!
Yes it will fit your EJ205. If you plan on running the pan and pickup you will be fine, but if you just plan to run the pickup you will either need a EJ25 pan or you will need an aftermarket pan like ours.
Thanks for posting this video. The new oil pan looks to stick down more than the stock one. I do have concerns with this as I drive in winter conditions and I do drive over ice chunks that do hit the underside of the car. How much more does this new pan stick down from stock? It looks like beautiful design. Also, are all of the o-rings Viton - Viton seals will last longer than conventional EPDM rubber.
Any update from anyone in time wise using this kind of set up? I'm interested in the longevity terms. So i can purchase and order a new oil pan and oil pick up tube. Otherwise, I'll just get a new set up in stock. Thanks who replies
Some say yes. If you do everything at once it’s cost effective to save labor cost. I’m just running the IAG oil pick up and I have a Cobb 20g, killer b header ETS TMIC and supporting mods. Running stock oil pan and baffle. Whole year on the set up and no issue. Doesn’t hurt to have extra oil. Stock car overkill.
I have an IAG 750 longblock w/ The IAG street series Oil pan package, rotated turbo, and a bunch of other things. My questions is, how far does this oil pan hang down, because my car is already lowered. It is a static build but I'm just wondering if I need to worry more about my oil pan hitting stuff. As it is lower than the front axle cross member, but not the OEM downpipe.
There are a few different spots where you can lift the engine from. You can use the stock headers or lift from the front of the transmission. Once the engine is lifted high enough, you can undo the engine mount hardware, reverse it, and reinstall it. This will allow you to lower the engine onto the nuts, so that the jack is out of the way.
I'll be picking up one of these oil pans in the near future, specifically due to the oil control & extra capacity. Also, whomever is making the music louder than the person/people speaking..... Please stop. It is highly annoying and completely unnecessary.
With the current age of these cars this is like putting a bandaid on a shotgun wound. Great looking product though hopefully someone can actually put it through its paces and document it. I know there's been some extensive testing with the new 86 and the baffled oil pans aren't making much of a difference
We have conducted extensive real-world testing of our EJ baffles and pickups to ensure their effectiveness. Our products undergo rigorous engineering development before being released. Currently, we are working on a superior baffle option for the GR86/22+ BRZ platforms, but the development process will take some time.
Hm... I'm a VA and VB owner. VA is send it to the moon and lives in the garage 99.9% of the time and VB is daily stomper and seems to of be the new project car on accident.
@@theiagchannelif you make it, they will buy it. Figure all and I mean all FA24 owners need to drop the pan to fix the RTV issue, it would fantastic to have a billet baffled pan to install during this process. I do understand the oil capacity may not increase with the header/manifold design for both fa20/FA24 but that's not the main focus. Added benefit of an IAG pan would be heat displacement and proper oil baffling.

Is one coming for the 2023 BRZ?
Baffles for the stock oil pan are in development. Potentially an oil pan replacement down the road as well!
You don’t say how much you jack the motor or a good place to jack from and where to keep it up.
Jack it up enough to reach the back bolts go as far as u can it will eventually stop cause the gearbox mounts won’t flex that much
There are a few different spots where you can lift the engine from. You can use the stock headers or lift from the front of the transmission. Once the engine is lifted high enough, you can undo the engine mount hardware, reverse it, and reinstall it. This will allow you to lower the engine onto the nuts, so that the jack is out of the way.
Which dipstick and tube is recommended to use with this pan? I know there are different lengths/tube designs out there
The OEM STI dipstick is recommend while the dipstick tube will remain the same!
If I replace just the oil pickup...is it necessary to replace the stock OEM pan?
The pickup is designed to work with our pan or the OEM pan
do N/A subaru engines have the oil pickup issue?
The issue is oil slosh. Unless you're tracking it for whatever reason it's not worth on an na motor.
Do they have these for the new WRX engines aswell?
Not yet, but we are looking into making an FA pan!
will order one for my 13 hatchback. What wheels are those??
Cosmis R1 in hyper bronze
much appreciated!@@theiagchannel
Will there be one for the FA20 anytime soon?
It is on our radar for the future!
So i need to get the spacer when i buy the oil pan ? I already have the pickup tube but i did not know i would need the spacer for this iag pan
We do sell the spacer separately but it should be included in a package. Reach out to us if you have any issues support@iagperformance.com
Would the process be the same on a 02 WRX?
The installation process should be very similar on your bugeye WRX.

How much lower is the pan from the ground?
This pan sit about 1-1.5in lower than the OEM STI pan.
We don't have an exact measurement at the moment but will try and get one!
do you have to jack up the motor? and I have aftermarket headers do I need to take them off then loft the engine?

Either use spacers or get the tbw for the iag pan, it’s .5 in lower
