They get loud haha. I swore up and down my valve lash was wrong even though I let my master Subaru tech buddy handle that part (I torqued everything down to 155 ft lbs 🤣). Sometimes these motors just get really clanky once they are done up
What's the difference to an A or a B forged piston? I've just forged my 2007 Hawkeye STi...again! Block cracked sadly, all good now. I've just never heard of two different types of pistons for one engine?
The ej motor comes factory with a and b pistons. I forget which, but one piston is slightly smaller than the other. There should be a stamp on the top of the block, where it splits, with letters a and b representing which piston goes to which cylinder. Of course, this only matters if you are using standard sized pistons with standard sized cylinders. If you go oversized then you just buy pistons to match and a or b pistons are irrelevant.
my ''a piller'' gauge pod is an autometer one I believe. and all my steering wheel/ quick release stuff is "works bell" brand. I uploaded a vid on it a ways back. labeled all the products in the description of thst vid.
I did upgrade the turbo. it's a gtx3076r dual ball bearing turbo. I just need to get my driving down, so my tuner can set my car to kill mode. it's got more in it.
It's called the "You don't need that retarded shit cause its not an actual race car where you need to take the wheel off for whatever reason" AKA a useless "look at me bro im cool though" upgrade Hope this answered your question
yragg96 I've never had a build yet..I cracked cylinder 4 piston when my motor was bonestock. so we dropped in forged pistons, Killer b pick up tube, and felpro gaskets. Other than thst motor is basically stock still.
Alex Lespier thanks. Running 20 psi full throttle. Launch control is set at 8lbs at 6200rpm. I've only managed to get a 12.9 @ 110mph out of her at the dragstrip. But i think she can run mid 12s. I just gotta drive better and build full boost at launch. No clue on hp. But i do know my car is on the safe tune right now. There is a kill mode tune that has yet to be flashed. My tuner wants me to get good at driving before giving me all the power.
That beeping sounds like my microwave lol
That beeping tho sooo annoying u need to mod that shit asap
Did you guys noticed a change on the sound of the engine with forged components? When forced.... it has a ticking sound...

How much km you drive since installed forged pistons?
what kind of oil do you use?
Very nice, you should do an engine bay wire tuck and delete some stuff to clean it up
Hmmm, forged piston chatter I hate it lol, nice build though hope it was fun
we're all sti beware not forged pistons already

any reason for having solid mounts over poly? i remember having solid mounts on my 3000gt back in the day and it drove me nuts.
ever had blown motor before or after the built?
yragg96 I've never had a build yet..I cracked cylinder 4 piston when my motor was bonestock. so we dropped in forged pistons, Killer b pick up tube, and felpro gaskets. Other than thst motor is basically stock still.
may i ask how much that is in total?
+panzerth weres the turbo inside the engine
right in front of the passenger side firewall. see the red turbo blanket sticking up from my enginebay? that is sitting on the hot side of my turbo.
How many psi and horsepower you have on that 2.5L engine because that car of your is awesome panzerth
