Bro ur vids r becoming godly mane @13:35 transition was so underrated and the angles u get have come such a long way. Been subbed for over a year now and it’s so cool seeing the journey you do with every car and keeping the same inspirational quote outro every time always makes my day. Just wanted to say keep up the great work Chris!
Sounds fire. Louder can be over rated, the tone is spot on. About to install a intake and access port on my 2021 sti tomorrow i have a ti exhaust . Let’s go, Subaru love
I have a modded 2020 STI. I would highly recommend you install Cobb or ID 1050x injectors, AEM 340lph fuel pump, Cobb or Grimmspeed boost controller, Cobb fuel stumble kit or an Aeromotive A1000 fuel pressure regulator/fuel line & rail upgrade and get the car open source tuned to avoid maxing out your fuel system and to avoid a P0420 fault code. I’d also get an IAG AOS, cylinder 4 cooling mod, and oil pan/oil pickup upgrade.
STI is looking 10/10 so far! It would be cool to see a cinematic car edit with the FRS, BRZ, and STI in it! Thanks for doing the quote at the end of the video
@@sti_ken I ran a nameless for 4 months it was ok. I don’t like how after the y it drops down to 2 in piping. I had an awe touring after that loved it. Car sounded like a muscle car but too loud in socal, went to grimspeed which sounded better than nameless but droned like crazy. I currently run a Fujitsubo rm single exit and it’s Cali legal weighs 25 lbs and sounds great with 0 drone.
Since you asked... there was a couple videos with the frs where you basically just drove around I'd like to see with the BRZ and Sti. I appreciate all you do Chris you're the most inspiring guy ever.
Have you gotten any codes with it yet? with Cobb's new emission rule, it would pop up a check engine light wouldnt it? When I had my Grimmspeed Catted downpipe in my sti, it would still pop a check engine light for me
I'm subscribed brother. I own a 2020 STI, and I'm so happy I upgraded from the 2017 WRX to my 2020 STI. The STI is the better car by far. A great video brother as always. 😊
Thanks for the boosted performance I actually did not know about them and by the current situation of cobb green speed this SOOOO! much of help thanks and thanks for this content
Apologies for the long message in advance.... I'm new to the STI platform and have a question in regards to the up & downpipe. I have several big HP GM LS & LT vehicles ranging from 630whp to 1,017whp. So in no way, shape or form am I trying to build this car, but want it to run the way it should once the real tuning starts. I recently purchased this STI to replace my Focus ST, which was my daily. Immediately, the STI became the far more fun to drive vehicle than the ST ever was, and can corner nearly as stable as my CTS-V3. Long story short, the STI ran good with the patches the used car dealership done to sell the car or the previous owner stripped it before selling it because there are signs where an AOS would've been located, or possibly a DP by looking at the broken zip ties. The car currently has the SRS non muffler axle-back "and sounds great", Cobb Carbon Fiber Intake, and an OTS map. I recently replaced the turbo inlet due to half of it being mounted onto the turbo with the bottom nearly halfway in the turbo itself, so I replaced it as well with a Perrin. Car ran fine for a few days, but the PCV valve that I thought I cleaned up pretty well stuck again. So, it's torn down again at the moment to replace with a new OEM piece. While I have a lot of the shielding off to put new clamps on the turbo drain, I want to know if the DP and UP worth it? More than likely I'm going to go catted since I don't want it excessively louder than what it is, but wanting to cure the well known problems that exists, along with the weight, and bulkiness in itself. Is it worth the money, what's the typical whp gains, and overall driveability/reliability of the car afterwards? As far as the DownPipes, are there any benefits with the divorced DP and the standard DP? At the moment I'll be keeping some type of recirculating BOV. May upgrade once tuning, but don't plan to vent to the atmosphere. Understand that the FP may have to get upgraded, but hopefully you can tell me yes or no. But the car will not see E85, and only pump 93.... Will the Injectors be enough for those few boltons? 2019 STI Base & thank you in advance for any info provided.
Did you end up with a CEL after installing this DP? I’m trying to figure out which one to get and the tuner is telling me pretty much the Cobb Gesi is the only one I can get to avoid CEL’s.
You could've bought an AOS like three times by now with all those mods you have. You need one of them like yesterday, along with a cylinder 4 cooling mod and a Koyorad. STi looking sick though so protect it
Would’ve loved a catless downpipe more….if you won’t you don’t actually need to buy a whole new downpipe….you can just cut the catelitic converter off…would need a professional though.
Just change the exhaust to tomei if you want loud. Tomei exhuast on a stock sti is loud on its own. Now with a catted downpipe its going to be extra loud and the cat will help it not be too raspy in the top end. Everytime you do catless you suffer from rasp at the top end unless the exhaust is resonated well.
Jealous you got the sti hahaha I kinda want one now haha but really just the sti trans haha the car is looking awesome man! I personally love the exhaust note but I know you like LOUD lmao invidia r400!!!
Catted and catless downpipes have it’s benefits and flaws to their own, catted obvi makes it give less toxic fumes and etc. also controls the boost a bit more, and is more tamed. Without that cat it lets all those toxic exhaust fumes mix with the engine and would make the backfire more aggressive and pop a lot, but could also result in boost creep because the catalytic converter is now deleted, so you may need to pay more attention to your boost or get a bigger waste-gate to handle the increase amount of pressure and air from the turbo without a cat. I’m sure I missed a bunch of other key points, but from personally having experience w/ both those are the major factors I personally experienced. Great context as always tho and it sounds awesome! Keep growing and doing what you love !
I always had a catted dp. It's nice to have exhaust that doesn't give you a headache and feel like brain damage. I also feel like catless equal length header makes my car sound like a clapped out honda at take off. Header might be another think to look at if yoy want it louder for unequal length and a bigger turbo will also make it louder.
oh yea sounds beautiful i mean a little louder might not hurt unlike the brz haha but it’s sounds really good i can’t wait for everything to come along and wait to see what’s coming ❤️🔥
Hey Chris, are you still running the Grimmspeed downpipe with your access port? And if so, how? I recently went to my local tuner to get a Grimmspeed downpipe installed on my 2018 sti and he says he can’t tune it with my access port without my car throwing a check engine light since Cobb’s update. Did you run into any issues with that?
@colby Clarkson Well actually, I ended up going with the Cobb Gesi downpipe instead of the grimmspeed one because I bought the wrong Grimmspeed downpipe. So everything works great with the Cobb downpipe.
I have a 19 wrx. I have the GS catted dp, GS ebcs and GS intake. I wanna get a retune for the fmic and methanol but I was told it would throw a code for the downpipe cause the green speed update.. did you not have a code??
Hey there that sounds good to me. Can you post a link for a downpipe for 2020 subaru wrx. That's the car I have. I also have the tomei Unequal length headers on my WRX. So with the downpipe it should sound more louder and better.
Dope vid as always! Sti looks and sounds good but it's definitely going to look better when u wrap it. I'm not a fan of silver either so that's why I wrapped my car a different color. Also, more vids of the frs. It's still my favorite.
Ok Chris that final quote really hit me i needed that, i reacently bought a 2019 GT86 and got screwed over on the deal.. long story short i paid about $40k canadian for it in the end. Thinking to myself everyday about how im paying STI money for an 86 has been killing me, but i really do love my baby.
Chris is yet again coming in with the perfect timing on the post. My go to lunchtime TH-camr🙏🏼

Much love bro. Messages like this honestly means so much to me. Thank you. ❤
How do you tune with the downpipe and not get a check engine light ?
You can’t
Do you have a check engine light on after the install? After Cobb Green speed I'm not sure if all aftermarket DP result in permanent CEL.
^
Does the the cobb greenspeed update affect anything with your downpipe?
^^
I love your car mannnnn!!!!! I hope you respond to this!
Much love bro!!
With catless now with Cobb tuning your going to be running into problems with emissions and what not since your from Cali
Question so how do you know the down pipes that won’t throw a code for the STI and WRX?
Sounds fire. Louder can be over rated, the tone is spot on. About to install a intake and access port on my 2021 sti tomorrow i have a ti exhaust . Let’s go, Subaru love

Install starts at 5:12 cause he likes to hear himself talk
Yeah he's a bit of a lil 🌈

That would be fire!! 👀🔥
I thought you couldn’t do catless with Cobb. Do you know the difference in the gesi v2 and the one you got? I’m in the market to.
You can’t turn off the check engine light with Cobb for emission components, doesn’t mean you can’t tune the car and run it.
What happened to your SUV?
Sold it awhile ago man. Took up space and wasn’t driving the project cars enough!
You should tried the Nameless Performance catback I run a 3.5inch pipe with 4inch tips and I absolutely love it cause it sounds aggressive
Lol every cat back sounds aggressive on an sti. Tomei and awe are definitely the top 2.
Hmmmmm 👀👀
@lucian7182 true but how many people you know that run a nameless

@@lucian7182 never heard of that I gotta look that up for sure
I had a 2011 STI with a 3inch catless downpipe + Invidia N1. Perfect set up IMO. It shot flames at high rpm's but wasn't too loud down low.
Geeeez 👀🔥
Since you asked... there was a couple videos with the frs where you basically just drove around I'd like to see with the BRZ and Sti. I appreciate all you do Chris you're the most inspiring guy ever.
Ahhh good ol throwback videos. I definitely should bring those vibes back!
Get some Equal Length header and external wastegate with FMIC and BOV. Sound would be nice, louder and more power.
EWG is definitely on my wish list 🔥
Have you gotten any codes with it yet? with Cobb's new emission rule, it would pop up a check engine light wouldnt it? When I had my Grimmspeed Catted downpipe in my sti, it would still pop a check engine light for me
Got a CEL light but should go away after the tuning process!
I gotta come meet chris at a meet one day. I was today years old when i found out chris is 6’2🫡💀
Hahaha people so surprised whenever i mention it in the videos. 😅
Remember wrx and Stis are completely different cars but! If u do catless it might be more of a hastle but just yolo it
Might just stay catted. Lotta you guys are recommending to!

How are you installing a downpipe without getting the P0420 code?
I have the same Downpipe, throws the P420 code.
Did you end up with a CEL after installing this DP? I’m trying to figure out which one to get and the tuner is telling me pretty much the Cobb Gesi is the only one I can get to avoid CEL’s.
Sounds sooooo sick bro keep it up and love the content
Appreciate that big time!
im a bmw owner and i still watch your vids , just great content overall ! love the good work
Thank you so much. ❤
It sounds perfect honestly it doesn’t need to be louder
You could've bought an AOS like three times by now with all those mods you have. You need one of them like yesterday, along with a cylinder 4 cooling mod and a Koyorad. STi looking sick though so protect it
Bro thx 9:32 my car has one and tbh I didn’t know how to use it properly lmao but now I do ❤
Got you! 💯
Tomei Uel headers, tomei, catless j pipe, tomei cat back exhaust....
Would’ve loved a catless downpipe more….if you won’t you don’t actually need to buy a whole new downpipe….you can just cut the catelitic converter off…would need a professional though.
It’s the cats that are muffling it. I got ELH with catless DP and Greddy SP mufflers. It screams.
Sounds good, bro. Keep up the good work, and I'm sure your neighbors are use to your loud cars by now.
Hahah hopefully they are! 🤣💯
Why didn’t you get the Cobb down-pipe? It would read off the AP v3
What’s the loudest j pipe/ downpipe I can pair up with the tomei catback, i wanna be obnoxious anyone got recommendations?
Hi there I would like to ask for subaru wrx sti ver 11 user... If u guys fuel up full tank how many kmh the car can go?
You selling that stock down pipe?.. if your in a state we’re emission is required deff keep it catted. If not I’d go catless. 👍🏼
Just change the exhaust to tomei if you want loud. Tomei exhuast on a stock sti is loud on its own. Now with a catted downpipe its going to be extra loud and the cat will help it not be too raspy in the top end. Everytime you do catless you suffer from rasp at the top end unless the exhaust is resonated well.
Thought about pulling the trigger on a tomei. 😅
@@chris_borges Friend has one and seeing that you have one on the FR-S is almost obligatory you put one on the STI ngl lol
Can’t wait to get my VB, subie boyzzzzz
Ayyy soon soon! 👀👀🫡
Sounds mint IMO but what about some induction mods? Intake/Intercooler/BOV type stuff either wait can't wait to see the color change 🔥
Goals definitely!
sounds nice, but if you want LOUD, im 100% sure you gotta go catless

Where’d you get earrings?? They lowkey fire @Peter Patterson
Your WRX videos was one of the reasons I got one for myself. Much love, keep doing what you do!
Ayyy much love and appreciate you sticking around! ❤
No need to take it to a shop for a tune just with the cobb access port?
The car looks mean as bro .
The colour , rims and kit looks hard ..🤙
What coilovers/tire specs? Fitment looks great man
Would you be able to drive it for a long trips, wouldn't it be too noisy
the STI will be yellow 10000%

yess i love the sti content #roadto100k
Glad you like it man! ❤
Put the OEM tails back on! 😢
Not a fan of those tbh 😅😅
did they stop making down pipes for the sti?
Downpipes are gonna be huge
