Josh you make complicated things look so simple. This video will help those out there a ton. Great attention to detail and passion. Great video. Stay safe brother.
One simple video like this, for people that don't know what the inner workings of a Boxer motors is like, will make any man 's head spin. Thankfully, you have done enough to calmly explain the process while you are working rather than explain it in detail but nothing to show for it while it's happening. Know what I mean? Purrrrfection!!! Why? 'cause at the end of the day, they purrr(Or growl, depending on whom you ask).
Even though I've got an FA, I'll wait a moment for you to stop laughing, I do enjoy the wrench turning how to videos. I especially like when you touch on what tools you use, it's really helpful for those that don't do this for a living. Keep up the great work!
Great video. I also have a Series White. Got it in late March. Great car so far. I’m over in Seattle WA, Roads can be ruff but love hitting the freeways . Keep up the videos!!! 👍
I’ve always done the fuel feed lines in the back and use Cobb Y to connect the lines, but I like how short the lines are to the flex fuel I mounted mine in the same spot
I’m honestly trying to decide if I want to get a STI or a EVO at some point. Such a hard decision because both seem to be such good vehicles for going fast lol
Very well explained 💪Looking forward to do this in my 15 STi, I'll be doing stage 3 and flex fuel, stock engine, stock VF48 at the time, I'm changing my mind now with the injectors, i was planning to get 1300cc but now I'll get 1700cc instead. Is the ETS 3.5" FMIC good enough for this setup?
Great video as always! What do you use to block off the existing ports on the TB for the coolant delete mod? I will definitely be goin that route when i install my TGV deletes
I couldn’t be more jealous it’ll be forever until I do any performance mods to my series white...gotta keep my warranty as long as possible my ass is broke lol
How do you like the series white so far? I have a 2017 WRX Limited that I'm considering trading in for the series white STI in the next week or so. I'm having trouble deciding if I want to get the last of the EJ engine or wait for the next generation.
Motocrosser22 I absolutely love it. It being the last of the EJ’s was a big part of my decision. I own a 16 forester XT with a FA and wanted a EJ before it was gone. Buying used with these cars is a huge gamble and I plan on keeping it forever. I love the fact its still so analog. It Really forces you to DRIVE it. I hate cars with driving nanny’s. It doesn’t spool as fast as a FA but that in my opinion is the only down side. The transmission is so satisfying and feels great. The Bilstein suspension matches with the cup 2 tires is next level but not so harsh you don’t want to daily it. As far as looks go the color and rims are only rivaled by the hyper blue. I’m 2k miles in and I’ve hit the canyon’s and mountains twice. Did 200 miles this weekend and loved every second.
I have a silly question and I hope it comes across the right way... If all of these mods make the engine run better and in some cases be more reliable, why wouldn't Subaru implement at least some of these after market mods/upgrades? I ask because I am waiting for my 2020 STI and it's mind boggling to me that a brand new series white owner would just throw his warranty out the window with the confidence that he won't have any issues with his engine? Thanks love the videos & your work and knowledge.
Braw.... turbo noises drive non car people mad crazy. Any little noise and the owner of the car will freak out n take it to the dealer n pay $100 to change their wiper blades. Plus who needs warranty when you swap built blocks for stocks from IAG every week lol. Also performance enhancing mods or bolt ons are not cost effective for the normal/average consumer. Subaru pays $0.01for that plastic quiet intake. Versus 10$ for a “performance” one. Then times 10,000 STI’s later there’s not much profit there. Kind of like why the S209 is $65k+ n then if you want tires that’s an extra couple grand!! Lol
Here's a DIY question: HOW do you go about removing and deleting the secondary air pump? It's clearly removed in this vehicle ( it usually sits to the right side of the alternator, you can see that empty space at 1:51 ) and I am desperately wanting to do something similar to my 2018 STI. Is it something you can achieve in your garage or should you shop it? Thanks!
_BaderBuilt soon! I’m thinking first trip is full exhaust, elh, up/down pipe, oil separator, and fuel system. Second trip we swap motor and go front mount rotated turbo. And tune it. And maybe take it to the track while I’m there lol
Yo bader! thanks for this video! and that TB coolant delete! what do we do with the throttle body nipple after the delete? Also, can we get by without taking off the AC line and belt?? just the alternator and power steering. If we are using the cobb/iag premade lines, do we still do the brake cleaner and watering the hose? Thank you so much! for fullfilling this request.
You can leave them open on throttle body or put rubber caps on them. I dont suggest trying and take off intake manifold with a/c still bolted to the engine because you are going to fight it 10x more and the a/c line runs right across the driver fuel rail area and theres a good chance you will bend it. If you have bought pre made hoses, im sure they already took the time to clean them out due to not everyone having that knowledge that they should be cleaned.
_BaderBuilt ahh thank you so much bader! this video is god send! you wer saying that the ac line belt is stretchable? so i can just pull that thing off right, then reinstalling it, just stretch it out to fit?
Yes sir, i can go back over that. I have made a couple videos on how to delete the expansion tank. Take a look back at when we were building our 800whp series grey sti and i believe its in the IAG AOS video
Hey quick question. Could you please explain how you get the car to the tuning shop after installing parts that require tuning? Would it be safe to carefully drive to the tuning shop?(mine being about an hour away) or is it best to use a trailer? Thanks a lot
Hey guys and Bader. I need some help. I have a 2016 Subaru WRX. FBO running E60. I have upgraded fuel pump and a proper tune. Recently at the top of second gear. WOT. my car just cuts all power. I’m hitting full boost. And no weird knocking or anything on the access port. It just cuts power. Any idea? (It’s only in second gear)
yikes! you definitely need that barometric pressure sensor! I can see why it was forgotten, not exactly intuitive that you need to cut it off the valve.
At 8:53 that baro sensor is connected to my down pipe your friend Steve told me that was the first time he has ever seen it like that. Some ghetto s**t, last owner had no clue what he was doing
@_BaderBuilt thanks - you should check out the Innovate ECF-1 gauges instead of using the Cobb stuff. Ben West (BW Tuning) makes a nice harness for them too.
you have to have all your monitors set up if you know a “smog guy” the rest is 💵 talks. gotta have all your sensor on the car. especially the rear 02 sensor. u delete that when you install a downpipe.
Josh you make complicated things look so simple. This video will help those out there a ton. Great attention to detail and passion. Great video. Stay safe brother.
I appreciate that!
Great mechanic
Great driver
Great instructor/trainer.
Awesome content man.
Thanks 👍

Yes please more "how to" vids.

Great job Boss! Move to NYC, need you here to work on my 2020 STI. Keep up the good work.
If it were up to prime motoring id already be there!
You should do a side feed to top feed conversion for the 04-06 Sti!
Great video. I also have a Series White. Got it in late March. Great car so far. I’m over in Seattle WA, Roads can be ruff but love hitting the freeways . Keep up the videos!!! 👍

lol i dont trust myself making thosw fuel lines. this is why i got the premade cobb lines.
Marc James Galang lol they’re no that hard tbh just do it how he showed you and when cutting it wrap it in tape
Love the content. Seem like a hard worker and a pretty cool dude. Appreciate your channel. Starting from the beginning.
Definitely get that go pro set up so we can really see in detail your installations and component break downs.
More FA20 content please haha!!
I love your channel and every video you create, keep up the awesome work!
Thank you so much 😀
Very pretty looking Series WHITE
I’m honestly trying to decide if I want to get a STI or a EVO at some point. Such a hard decision because both seem to be such good vehicles for going fast lol
If you have want to use it for a daily driver then id highly suggest test driving a 2015+ sti. They are the most comfortable and enjoyable to drive
Very well explained 💪Looking forward to do this in my 15 STi, I'll be doing stage 3 and flex fuel, stock engine, stock VF48 at the time, I'm changing my mind now with the injectors, i was planning to get 1300cc but now I'll get 1700cc instead. Is the ETS 3.5" FMIC good enough for this setup?
Great content as usual. I know I ask a lot of questions but I really appreciate the responses keep doing what you doing lol.
Thanks! Will do!
Great video as always!
What do you use to block off the existing ports on the TB for the coolant delete mod?
I will definitely be goin that route when i install my TGV deletes
Love the attention to detail. Keeps my OCD at bay. 😜

I love how my man just pulls the manifold off like he peeled an orange when it takes me 3 days to put an aos in 😜🤦🏿♂️
Trust me, i started where all you guys are. It took me 12hrs my first time to remove/ delete tgv and reinstall lol
@@BaderBuiltRacing 😯 there's hope for me then 😂
So Josh u getting prepared for the new sti? I'd love to know your thoughts on the new design and any comparisons from the old to the new.
Hey bader I love your videos I just got a 2020 sti do you recommend me getting a Aos it’s completely stock?
Your the man bro, keep making these vids please!!!!

Brother, can you explain more things about Evo's transmission in the next videos about this car?
The dress up here is sick, I’m gonna twin this thing...but Stage V with rotated turbo
When you coming up mike :)

Great content, just curious do the 1700cc injectors idle okay on 92 octane or mostly suitable to e85.
Great vid - Does removing the stock intercooler, throw any engine codes?
no sir it does not.

@baderbuilt do we have to put back the 4 pain in the ass 4 bolts under the intake manifold that holds the wiring harness?
What spacers were used on the Series White 19” BBS wheels? I’ve been asking around and no one has a straight answer on what fits. Thanks.
Thx. Saved til I need it this winter.
How far have you seen 1700cc pushed to?
depends on the dyno since they all seem to read different. Trap speeds have showed 650-700whp is usually limit of them.
Could you please show us how you reroute the ebcs by the iag aos and how to delete the coolant resivor that is on top of the manifold? thank you
Yes sir, i can go back over that. I have made a couple videos on how to delete the expansion tank. Take a look back at when we were building our 800whp series grey sti and i believe its in the IAG AOS video
Bader Badass
Who makes the intercooler screen?
Thanks for sharing!
Hey quick question. Could you please explain how you get the car to the tuning shop after installing parts that require tuning? Would it be safe to carefully drive to the tuning shop?(mine being about an hour away) or is it best to use a trailer? Thanks a lot
Typically your tuner will send you a base map to run until you get to the shop.
have the tuner send you a base map to drive on after modding the car, just enough to get you to the dyno
Awesome that just solved a big problem of mine. Thanks a lot
Hey guys and Bader. I need some help. I have a 2016 Subaru WRX. FBO running E60. I have upgraded fuel pump and a proper tune. Recently at the top of second gear. WOT. my car just cuts all power. I’m hitting full boost. And no weird knocking or anything on the access port. It just cuts power. Any idea? (It’s only in second gear)
Usually thats a sign of a boost cut, ignition blowout ect.
@@BaderBuiltRacing anything that would cause that
yikes! you definitely need that barometric pressure sensor! I can see why it was forgotten, not exactly intuitive that you need to cut it off the valve.
Guys I need help 2018 subi sti or 2018 bmw 340i can you guys give me your opinion on what I should get??
STI everyday
Did you reuse the tgv gaskets or got new ones?
Always new ones sir
At 8:53 that baro sensor is connected to my down pipe your friend Steve told me that was the first time he has ever seen it like that. Some ghetto s**t, last owner had no clue what he was doing
That must of been the video he sent me lol
@@BaderBuiltRacing lmao thats funny you should of saw the up pipe the guy weld the nuts on It i had to take the whole turbo off an cut it off
❤️
What type of mount are you using for the FPR?
OEM
@_BaderBuilt thanks - you should check out the Innovate ECF-1 gauges instead of using the Cobb stuff. Ben West (BW Tuning) makes a nice harness for them too.
doesn anyone know if upgrading the fuel system like this affects smog in CA? lol.......
you have to have all your monitors set up if you know a “smog guy” the rest is 💵 talks. gotta have all your sensor on the car. especially the rear 02 sensor. u delete that when you install a downpipe.
Josh Great video always watch your content...what’s your Ig?
Where the evo
In portland still, last part just came in yesterday.
Good I want to see it on the dyno I want to buy a evo 8 or 9
