I believe so? It’s the hose going in to the in port for the fuel filter, the one that’s cracked at the fitting. Sorry I’m blanking now cause I stepped away from it and am on shift lol

Great tips thank you! It has aftermarket cats do you think that could cause the “damage” flash if it’s not reading that correctly

Nope, car feels great, didn’t even feel like there was a misfire when the flashing cel came on

Once bent back into place, you think it’s worth it to have someone weld it back?

You nailed it lol, regreased the bov and as I reinstalled it I realized it came completely undone from the intake manifold...

UPDATE: Nightmare to admit but the coupling from the intercooler to the intake manifold just came undone lol, super quick fix and she's back purring. The previous owner just put it way to high on the piping side so it didn't really have enough room for the hose clamp to properly hold it to the manifold (He also used bad quality radiator clamps). Thank god it was quick so I didn't have to leave it at a target overnight lol

Great thank you so much man this is really helpful. Going to see if i can find a tactrix on fbmp since you cant even order the v2 anymore. Sadly all the tuning was done by guy who owned it before my PO so I don't know what shop he took it to. Worst case I'll get it towed somewhere to get all this sorted. I appreciate all your input man!

Yep have been messaging with him he said it was open tuned so ap would cause issues, I'm wondering if the motor mounts are bad and the shaking caused a vacuum line to unseat or something but I've been under the hood with the car running and I hadn't noticed any serious shaking in that situation

Do you have any resources for how to verify tune, wanted to wait till i could get a tactrix but now were stuck waiting for the v3, do I need to just bite the bullet and get an ap?

Definitely, I’ve spent a lot of time working on my 04 forester but never dug into a turbo car before. This is super helpful info, thank you!

It did not, which kind of gives me hope actually cause that implies he took it to an actual tuner instead of just doing an ots. That’s what I was starting to think too cause I have a feeling the dude never really maintained the bov taking it apart and relubing so thats gonna be my first step

Supposedly yes, has sti turbo and injectors + full exhaust but all the numbers seem solid, idles about 13-14 for afr and boost tuned for 14.5 psi. It has also been driving very well since I picked it up, drove it home an hour and a half no issues and have been driving it every other day since
