Anime girl stickers are -10hp
No way I find you here😂😂bro is a counterstrike nuke legend
This channel is ridiculously underrated when it comes to straight to the point wrx info. Borderline criminal.
My man, you honor me with such praise. I'm glad you are enjoying the content. 🤘🙏
Just got my first wrx a week ago and now here I am great channel very informative
I’ve been trying to hold off until the summer for a tune but damnit everyday it gets harder and harder to wait 😂
DOOO IT. DOOO IT. JOIN US.
Under hood looking minty-fresh for the holidays, Awais! Thanks for keeping the content coming, and for inspiring the modding spirit in all of us! Hoping to start adding
parts to my car soon!
Thank you so much! I can't wait for you to start modding. You're gonna think you got a brand new car 🤘
Here with a ets turbo kit otw but I still love watching your vids haha. Good stuff man. Hope you had a nice holiday
Always some great content Awais. I think your next mod is the radiator front brace bar in white :) get those sales!
Thanks so much! Unfortunately I would need to get the shorter one as regular size doesn't fit with the FMIC.
You were not kidding about the sales! I just got the cold air intake from Perrin at import image racing. You have me excited to start modding the engine!
Hell yeah! Perrin is like up to 40% off , it's crazy.
@@HeavyMetalWRX I got a bunch of Perrin goodies. You need to tell them to give you a code we can use for you incase we purchase during non holiday times.
Informative video! Tyvm.
I appreciate it!
Never been a better time to make that powa baby!
Keep those deals coming! ❤️🙏
Thank you
Love your channel... Man! My favorite store IIR just dropped 40% on all Perrin items. Gosh, the AOS for less than $300 and the front mount intercoolers for less than $920 is insane. I wish I could click buy on all these parts and get to 350 whp like you did, but I'm still gonna wait for that warranty to expire. It is so tempting though!
The Perrin deals are RIDICULOUS right now. People need to hop on it.
Dad is that you ;)
I just checked and WOW those are some killer deals. RIP my credit card 😆
im losing til the 27th and zero percent fi @@chrischarles9218
the video ive been waiting for
Well shoot! Had I know I would have made it sooner! Hope the information helps.
I have an ets intake ,tmic,perrin charge pipe, and ets turbo back exhaust on 93 im making 350whp/378wtq and man i love the car SOO much more 😂
Whewww man that's a fantastic daily right there!
In the old days, you would also need a catted/catless downpipe to make 3XX HP which was a nightmare for emissions testing in certain states. Now that required upgrade is no longer necessary since the stock exhaust flows so much better.
I picked up a Cobb intake pipe (I will be installing tomorrow) that utilizes the factory airbox as I'm going for a sleeper build. I want to keep under the hood as quiet as possible. Next will be a charge pipe and an intercooler. THEN an AP. I really like the design of the Perrin top mount. Oh and Perrin just released their Turbo inlet hose that is supposed to add 10-15 hp.
You're getting one step closer 🤘👀
This is similar to the route I'm planning to go also. Trying to fit an AP in the x-mas budget might be tough atm, but dang, hard to beat the black friday deals!
@@keiser255 Dont go to Import Image Racing.Those deals are EVIL 😂
Can confirm. With 93, intake and catback, 315hp 360tq. For now 😈
Love your content! I am going to take advantage of the Black Friday sales. Do you have any idea of the difference in power between ETs intake and the Cobb intake solution? I really wonder how much power I would lose if I used the Cobb solution over ETS.
It's hard to say exactly how much (maybe 5hp). It's not a major amount from the intake but ETS is the best flowing intake. In the long run for a weekend warrior it doesn't really matter tbh. Unless you're gonna go built motor and full turbo kit what's single digit hp difference if something is on sale. That's how I see it
Mic quality 👍
I'm glad you noticed! I started recording at a slight lower DB overall and adjusting in post if needed. I just need to be diligent with checking my settings before recording. I'm still a bit unprofessional in that regard but I'm working on it!
Just ordered a Cobb AP since I couldn't pass on black friday deals. I have a Cobb air intake, Borla catback exhaust, while retaining the stock intercooler and charge pipe. Hoping to reach at least 320ish HP/lb-ft torque with the parts I have on. My question is that do you prefer a dyno tune over an E-tune?
Hey there! Fantatsic you were able to get some fancy parts! Etune and dyno tune are both identical in nature. They are both tunes dialed to your car. I would suggest going to the dyno at least once if you've never been as it is an experience. After that if you keep getting parts id stick with an etune as it's cheaper plus you could probably continue with the same tuner. I just keep going back to the dyno because I have access to it.
What are the solutions out there for increasing fuel? It’s seems around that mid 500hp range that starts to become an issues. I know with direct injection it’s a lot harder but I don’t know why.
How accurate is the integrated boost gage...during test drive my boost gage read 12.3.....first real drive it bumped up to 13.4
AP, INTAKE, CVT COOLER, TUNE all the difference dyno tune next
Have been watching you for awhile now...just want to see your estimate/guesstimate, I have a DMann 93 tune with ETS intake, ETS top mount, ETS charge pipe and Remark full CAT back exhaust, after finished the tune I hit 19-21psi feels great, I asked Anthony of a guesstimate of power he said 340-350whp and 360-370 torque, clearly rough estimates, you think these are accurate, regardless of the #'s it's just so much more fun and exciting
I appreciate the support! Yeah I'd say he is pretty on the money. When he gives estimates it's based off what he saw on the dyno with similar numbers. With my ethanol tune he quoted 380 and I was at 386. So give it +/-5hp but id say you're prob closer to 350hp. The ets I take breathes just a bit better than the Perrin.
Appreciate your your feedback and input, all I know is I love it
I have a 2022 with the cvt and I’ve done a Cobb top mount ETS intake and catback exhaust I have the JB4 on the way. Any idea how much power I can expect with the extra mods?
It's hard to say. The 93 map 2 would out you at about 295-300whp. If you use map 6 and edit values for the Inyake it could be more but it depends on how well you edit it all.
My VB is making 353hp and 409 tq with ets top mount intake charge pipe j pipe.
On what gas?
What gas? And what’s vb? And could I just put in an intake in without a tune?
I raced a Lexus something this morning in my 23 and beat him by a couple cars even bouncing off the rev limiter every gear. Question is do tuners move the rev limit up ? It seems like it would keep pulling easily another 500-1000rpm. I wasn’t watching the tach but I easily hit the limiter pretty quickly in each gear.
Oh yea the hard rpm limit is rough. They do uo it to 6500 and some even go to 7000.
Hey brother. I went to Dyno with basic mods on 93 octane (intake, charge pipe, turbo inlet pipe, top mount intercooler, axle back exhaust). We got 332hp, and 460lbft to the wheels. The torque feel is insane. Will this likely blow the transmission for daily driver?
@@moods4208 BROOOO thats way too much torque for the stock transmission ☠️☠️☠️☠️
Are all these horsepower and torque numbers you speak of at the wheel (as opposed to at the crank)?
Yes! All this is wheel horsepower
I’m new with this, I have my first wrx. Could I get a new intake without a tune?
Hey there! It is strongly suggested that you get a tune with an intake. You could run the Perrin Intake as a daily without a tune but you don't want to race it like that.
I wish Subaru would have options for displaying the name of the car, I got the lit up led emblem, but I wish Subaru had different options.
Everyone always has the blank grille.
Are you still on the stock clutch? Do these clutches hold the extra power/torque reliably?
I am! I've been at 400tq since last January. It's held up all year. I will be doing a STI swap early next year so I'll be able to get my eyes in the clutch.
I’m at 420 hp for awhile and my clutch is starting to slip in my vb😢
Does getting your wrx tuned void your engine warranty? I’ve heard that it does, just want to make sure before I fully commit
Technically it doesn't void your warranty. What happens is if something goes wrong and you take it in they may fix it or they may debt a warranty claim if they can determine your tune cases the issue. If you are paranoid about warranty then I would suggest not tuning at all. It's the only realistic way you can be sure.
Do you recommend the ETS FMIC over the Perrin in terms of quality and reliability? Both have great discounts right now but Perrin does have a better discount. Also considering that the ETS FMIC h the option for the front crash bar, which I 100% want if I get a FMIC. Your thoughts??
Tbh for the street idk how much of a difference the ETS will make over the Perrin. I know my Perrin is actually a 3.5 core. I think any fmic will actually be better in the long run over a tmic. I asked ets if their bar fits on other FMIC but no word yet. Tbh I think it might fit but for the price I'd go for Perrin.
Thank you for the quick response! Looking forward to your build! I'm currently sitting at 369whp and 388.8wtq on 93 for my 2022 WRX!
@@ROROSWRX damn that's some good power on 93! I kind of want my 93 tune to be a bit higher. I may look into upgrading my hard parts to something else.
@@ROROSWRXwhat mods do you have if you don’t mind sharing?
I don't mind! I got the following mods: ETS intake with airbox, Remark axle back and mid pipe (non resonated), P&L Motorsports J pipe, COBB TMIC, COBB AP, IAG AOS, and Perrin charge pipe.
I just bought my ETS Headers (on sale for $930 from IIR) and ETS FMIC w/ 4in core (on sale from IIR). Hopefully I'll be able to get more out of it and keep my wtq under 400. My WRX has been dyno tuned by Felixperformance and will get retuned by them afterwards.
If you just put in an intake alone, will you need a tune along with it right away?
It is highly recommended. Your car won't really increase in power much. The tune is really what allows the intake to make more power ( or any part really)
does a tune with intake void warranty?@@HeavyMetalWRX
Wow, 260whp bone stock? So let me ask you this: is the factory claimed 271hp at the crank or at the wheel? I thought it was at the crank, which would put whp around 216 using the ~20% power loss formula (powertrain loss). But with this 260 number from you as an independent source, that has me wondering if the factory claimed 271hp was actually a whp number (albeit maybe a little optimistic).
Tbh I have no idea wtf Subaru was trying to claim with 271. I feel like they pulled a VW and just said whatever they needed to say to get through epa regulations. It doesn't make 271 to the crank and it doesn't make 271 to the wheel. Only thing I can think of is they did the mustang dyno and converted it to crank? I wish I knew the answer.
Hey bro do you know if the perrin front mount fits with ets intake and Airbox
Hey man, I think you might find it a bit of a tough fit. You could probably make it fit with some cutting. My Perrin air box also had a bit of an issue with the piping. Id like to go back and put it on but for now it's been fine without.
@@HeavyMetalWRX ok thanks im going to stick with the cobb tm ....... id like one day to build engine inside waiting on the results of that fa 24 build from iag they havnt posted much about it have you heard anything
Can I get a decent horsepower/efficiency boost AND increase or otherwise not effect my fuel economy or is that a pipe dream?
Yea the fuel economy won't change because of the tune. If anything you might actually gain a few mpg. The reason mpg goes down after a tune is because the car becomes even more fun to drive so you floor it more often to hear the noises 🤣
@HeavyMetalWRX So if I add no new parts to the car and just put on a Cobb tune and use 93 octane as usual. I'm looking at 300 horsepower with the same fuel economy, assuming I don't drive like an asshole?
@@samael1981 exactly! Your foot has always had the power to control your mpg 🤣
@HeavyMetalWRX I'm not an expert like you. But my intuition is telling me that there's a little bit more to fuel economy. A heavy foot on a base model Toyota Corolla is still going to burn less gas than a normal foot on a Hellcat, for example.
@@samael1981 no worries! So b cusee we have a turbo and direct I jevtion the ecu will put the exact amount of fuel and air together. As we tune and out on an intake we adjust the amount of air going in and so the fuel needs to also be adjusted. When tuned and we floor it we are using more air AND more gas. As long as you are staying out of boost ( cruise control, no wide open throttle pulls) the air intake is low which means fuel is low. The rcllecamples you gave are greatm the Camry is tuned to use minimal fuel and air to make it's power. The hellcat naturally just needs more fuel because the increased cylinders then even more fuel because of all the extra air going into that big engine + supercharger. It all comes down to the tune.
What is needed to run e85 other than a tune
Nothing at all! No file upgrades are required to run ethanol in the 22-23 WRX.
Do you need a fuel pump for an ethanol blend or e85 for the vb ?
At this time we do not. No changes need to be made to run a blend or full e85.
@@HeavyMetalWRX wait really ? I didn’t know that I could’ve gone e85 a while ago lol
Botti's WRX was 645whp and failed at 675whp do to a valve spring. He mentioned the springs are very weak..
Ohhhh I did not catch that! Thank you for the information. Still to get THAT high in a Subaru. 👀
@HeavyMetalWRX Yes it is! I've been on the fence on a VB and been watching your channel lol appreciate the great info!
When you tuned did you keep 2 separate maps one pro and one e tune
I do have the individual maps so I can switch back and forth between 93 and ethanol.
I love the setup and thank you for the information. Still waiting to tune and haven’t really driven it since February and have only 700 miles on it. I highly recommend though the trans swap as bottom end is where most of the damage will come from once you get into those higher horsepowers.
As a suggestion for your build the trans swap
@@briangamba8064 oh most definitely. That will be happening here in January/February for sure!
Have you thought about getting a trans cooler when you change to a 2019 Sti trans that integrates with the VB chassis and clutch
initial tune and exhaust will happen on my 2023 WRX
Blend up chicken, broccoli, and rice, and pour it into the gas tank
Now that's the fuel my body needs 😭😭
So what’s the secret to running all this in California and still be able to keep your cars warranty just in case?
For you id say get the Cobb stage 2 package. It will still get you to mid 300s. I do need to do a video and dyno round up on that for my CA people.
I wonder what would be a good hp figure to shoot for absolute reliability? always hear about people blowing wrxs up with almost no power gains.
260 WHP stock? Dyno jet right?
Dynojet,yea
@@HeavyMetalWRX that would explain your stock numbers.
@@JordieG8 yea all my numbers are dynojet. That's what we have at my Subaru shop here.
@@HeavyMetalWRX they’re great dyno. They just tend to read quite high. Usually around 15%. AWD Subarus almost always lose 20% + in drivetrains loss. On Dynos that read a bit close to really, the sock numbers are probably closer to 220. But if you’re going back to the same dyno the gains are going to be pretty accurate even if the final number is inflated.
@@JordieG8 They don't read that high.. that's a stigma from people explain their poor numbers on mustang dynos. I have a MD250 dyno in MY shop and I read just a tiny bit lower than most dyno jets and mustangs are supposed to be humbling. It's not as big of a difference as you would think. For example I dyno scats always around 395-405 hp and dynojets see 400-420. Not a big difference 15% would be insane that's a 60hp difference.
I wanna go stage 1 so bad in mine (2022) but I bought the extended warranty so I know I shouldn’t 😩hey it was a 4K warranty that I got for 1500 and is 7 year/100k. I know it’s probably fine reliability wise but something would so happen to me I swear 😂
Don't trust my opinion, but I also have the extended warranty and went for a tune (no aftermarket parts) after 11k miles because I decided it was safe enough for the engine. More worried about transmission issues down the line, which the tune (hopefully) won't void. Planning on keeping the car for at least 3 years/50k miles, will probably swap it out before 70k miles.
@@rawkombucha hey good thoughts comin from me then ✊🏻I’m sure it’s gunna be fine, I just am overly paranoid I suppose
@@rawkombuchaHad my transmission replaced under warranty. Before they moved forward with an approved warranty claim, they checked the ECU if it was ever tuned. They told me if it was, then I'd be on the hook for buying a whole new transmission. Luckily I'm completely stock or I guess you can say super unlucky since all these other people have been modding without transmission issues.
Wow what happened to your transmission? I have not heard a whole lot of stock transmissions having issues.
I think the tune a d driver are what keep the transmission in working co dition. Now this doesn't take into account freak accidents, of which are possible to happen. The guy below mentioned this transmission messing up as stock but that's not a norm occurrence and I haven't heard of many at all where that'd happened.
your car is lasting cause you are doing the tunes smart. not using the SEND IT attitude..
You might be on to something. 👀
Your engine bay is beautiful. Can I sire your car babies?
Hahaha idk if that's gonna be possible 🤣🤣
