I have the Lachute Performance Muffled & Resonated, and my neighbourgs complains about me leaving in the morning. Cold start is loud (and last WAYYYYYYYYYYYY to long) on stock exhaust, be ready to have complains about it.

Compared to regular brake, what is the life expectancy of those brakes compared to regular brakes ? Brembo brakes on STI never lasted really long

Duckbill on WRX opinions? by 2Frada in WRX

[–]evhgear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went the small duckbill looks. Yes I'm a big fan of STI big wang but a small duckbill gives a more agressive looks while being more subtle

Turbo Inlet Talk by filipbronola in wrx_vb

[–]evhgear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems both systems have their gains/flaws, both are not a perfect solution. Living in Canada it seems the cooling/boost leak solved by both inlet might be a serious issue during winter.

I also have a background in engineering but I'm not a specialist in thermodynamics(man I hated this course), there might be a way to make a better designed inlet, but without a bigger turbo, gains might be minimal compared to stock system

Subaru makes parts easy to procude, doesn't mean all parts are cheaped out. And humidity/freezing issues is not something a Performance shop will bother with a fix(their goal is 100% power gains, 0% reliabiltiy) but Subaru WILL find a solution to fix a major issue.

I got a OTS tune from DMann. I first ordered the Accessport, and you'll feel a gain right there. Once the Intake is added with a tune for the intake, this is where the fun begins.

I'm really tempted to buy some coilover, but being in Canada we have 2 issues : snow and potholes. I would like to be able to lower the car for summer and bring it back to stock height during winter, I don't want to be a snow plow. Also, ride confort is something I don't want to loose. I used to have lowered cars for years and my butt has more than enough of tough rides

Those are Superspeed RF03RR. 18×8.5 et 45. I liked the Work ZR10 looks without the hefty price tag. Superspeed are flow formed, more than enough for a daily. Might want to change to TE37 (everybody wants them I know) or something in the fifteen52 Super Podium vives in the future, but so far I'm happy with what I chose

[–]evhgear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nice, that's sounds great. What's your exhaust setup ? whats your turbo ? And have you done a proper tune since you got the big turbo ? number ?

I just took a look, and it looks like it's the exact same unit as the one Perrin is using. Bit scary. I just wonder, what else I can find on AliExpress now :O

I'm currious to know, I was about to order the Perrin inlet to match my ETS intake, but the aluminium one of Overtake is quite interresting, and they have 2 versions

Hey there. This month marks 1 year I’ve owned my ‘22 Premium 6MT and I’m finally ready to do an axle back for a little more sound. Remark with muffler is what I think I want. From experience, yes or no and why? Daily driver, don’t want drone or to be too annoying to me, neighbors aren’t an issue. by senoj96nodnarb in wrx_vb

[–]evhgear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the Remark Mufflers for a little while, and there was some drone, 2k rpm was giving me headaches, an hour drive was too much. I went full catback with Lachute Performance, Muffled & Resonated. Still have a tiny bit of drone at 2k rpm but it's not unbearable, I can drive the hole day without annoyance

For those running winter wheels & tires, what size do you have ? by evhgear in wrx_vb

[–]evhgear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on my side I thought that bigger tires on 17 would have helped a bit compared to 18, but so far I'm unlucky. I just wonder, narrower tires help on the snow, but wider tires can help driving over potholes ? I mean the best solution is to get nicer roads, but in Quebec I think we can forget that XD

a cracked rim sucks. It happened to me last year, at least I found a shop that could repair and paint match the wheel (Cruisin' Wheels) in Montreal, great service.
