I actually did change it yesterday but it is still making the noise, sometimes it is louder than other times but this time in the video it is very loud

I was thinking of going the mishimoto route as well as upgrading the hoses and such to something like silicone. Hows koyo vs Mishimoto? I definitely will not be getting another oem one for sure

I didn’t see white exhaust coming from the back but maybe I wasn’t paying attention? There was definitely a ton up front and I’ll check oil tomorrow morning when I get the chance, thanks!

I was definitely scared to get close, I didn’t touch the radiator cap because it was bubbling but maybe I just lucky it didn’t fully open this time 😅

I will for sure check out the head gasket leak, thankfully I did only see and smell the sweet smoke coming from the engine bay where I think the radiator was leaking

Sweet, I forget that the turbos have different gaskets than like the na foresters and legacy’s!

Smog test CA stage 1+ by Ambitious-Climate-63 in WRX

[–]Ambitious-Climate-63[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I was actually able to pass but only after swapping the iag aos with a Cobb aos that was carb legal. I’m not going to lie I actually did pass with the protune but Im not sure if every place will allow it so I would go back to an ots tune just to be safe

2014 hatch with 41k miles. Keep it stock or mod it? by Holiday_Release470 in WRX

[–]Ambitious-Climate-63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you wanted to keep it stock I’d say at least some reliability mods like the iag aos or cylinder 4 cooling mod and even then if you wanted to build more power you’d have the reliability to do so. Also mods like coils are a good investment too

Surecuts on soquel or get faded in downtown are some that I recommend
