Dan's 2007 Subaru Liberty GT Spec B Tuned By STI

[Ben]

Looking mint Dan!

Started on the performance mods. So far just a dump pipe, huge improvement over stock! Turbo comes onto boost a lot faster!

Here's a quick vid, planning on keeping the stock mufflers but upsizing the mid section of the exhaust from single 2.25" pipe to twin 2.5" pipes with dual resonators.

What dump are you using??
Did you end up going with the Phat dump?

Found that with the dump and stock tune was a bit jerky at around 3K rpm.
Get an upgraded Intercooler (top mount) and a reflash... Guarantee minimum of 170AWKW runs and Mabey prob more like 180AWKW

Oh... And btw... My brothers one made 115AWKW on stock tune with just the Dump....
That's how big of a difference the tune makes!
Different car... Much smoother and just bucket loads more power.

Yep, managed to get a Phat dump. Might be different with the STI tune? I haven't noticed it it to be jerky, although still getting used to it pulling from 2,000rpm all the way to redline in a few seconds

Yeah a nice big intercooler is on the list, waiting for a Perrin one to be redesigned to clear the STI strut brace and I'll probably get that, although it's not very subtle...

May also upgrade the fuel pump depending on the tuners recommendations, but yeah hoping to get a very usable 180kW ATW without changing out the turbo.

Haha nice, I think my model is supposed to have 130-140kW stock atw but obviously depends on the dyno.

Started work on the carputer again. Gathering parts for the computer itself, as well as fixing the fascia to get it perfect this time. Also got the software I need.

Software:
Windows 7 (I'll strip it down to the essentials once it's all running)
Centrafuse Auto 4 with maps as a front end, music player, navigation etc
BlueSoleil for automatically connecting my iPhone to the computer via bluetooth and managing contacts

Hardware:
Motherboard: AsRock H77M-ITX
CPU: Intel Core i3-2100
RAM Patriot G2 Series DDR3 1600MHz 4GB (will only run 2GB if I can get memory usage down enough)
SSD: OCZ Agility 3 60GB SATA 3
Case: M350 if I can't find somewhere to fit the computer without a case
PSU: M2-ATX, still yet to order this
GPS: Nokia LD 3W (to be upgraded later)
Bluetooth USB adapter
ELM327 OBDII USB cable
Cables: HDMI, lots of USB extension cables, various 3.5mm cables etc...

I'm tempted to run radio through the computer instead of using the headunit as that way whatever is playing will automatically mute when I make or receive a phone call or use voice control. Opposed to me having to reach all the way to the AUX button on the headunit (or press the steering wheel control) :P

Here's a pic of what the front end will look like, nice big buttons to press and hopefully a very smooth interface with the i3. I've also modified Windows 7 a little to remove most microsoft/windows branding so now the interface has Subaru logos and tbSTi logos/wallpaper


Also fitted a reversing camera which automatically switches, need to rewire it a bit as there's a 2-3 second delay before I get picture after changing to reverse. It's very well hidden, you can see it in this photo (just) and that was the angle it was most noticeable from

Found it! Lol
Nice and tidy install tho
Good stuff
