Finally installed down pipe
Ok so today i decided to see if the down pipe i ordered off ebay would fit and to my suprise it bolted rite up. Ive heard stories of flanges not lining up and having to be cut and reweld, but to my suprise it was a direct bolt. Only took about an hour with a 14mm wrench and a 14mm socket and rachet. I even wired my air fuel guage up at the same time, for those of you with subys if you install an A/F guage there are 4 wires to the O2 sensor your goin to want to use the blue. There are 2 black 1 white and the blue signal wire. Oh and just so everyone knows it PULLS extremely hard now i had to turn the boost controller down as it was almost over boosting. The turbo starts to spool from about 1,000 RPM's now where as before it didnt spool until 2,000 RPM. What a difference, the down pipe has no cat either. The only down fall it has, is that its very loud now.

Isn't it actually an up pipe on scubys?

Cant do a sound clip my outers not set up for it, but i can assure you it is loud and the turbo spools very fast, almost off idle. There is no more turbo lag either, now all i need is a cobb access port and ill be at stage 3.
