What difference will it make using the 2.5 inlet over the standard inlet and I take it the throttle body bolts straight on with any problems?

Thanks, I wanted something totally different and something you can't just buy off the shelf. I know what you mean about taking a long time to do. I have to get a few ports welded up and I'll relocate them under the manifold.
I'd like to rotate it but it sits higher than a stock wrx one and will sit further foward if it was rotated. It would hit the hood. Plus you wouldnt see the alien shapes.

It bolts to the heads without a problem. You need to get a few ports either blocked or welded shut. Also need to drill a few holes above the throttle intake something with the throttle body.

don't think smoothing out the plastic LGT intake is any easier. I think I used more 400g on it than I did on my hood and it has the IC rally vent.
Curious as to how that 2.5I would work on my build? How is the fit for the turbo inlet or are you rotated.

I should have quoted this pic... that's awesome..
2 words... .flapper wheels...
makes quick work of a LOT of material...
Could I get a better look at the other side?
I'm wondering if I couldn't use that one bolt hole on the upper passenger side of it, to hold a cable bracket for my cable TB...
Got me really thinking now man.. and I jus spent hours doing TGV deletes.. :lol:

24 grit wheel on air. then some surface pads to clean it up. i dont want to take off too much material at once. I want it to have a really smooth look when I'm done. Like it came that way. I already blasted it once to clean it up. Ill do it again before it goes off to powdercoat. I may have to make some brackets to hold the throttle body cables. or swap to a dbw system and run avcs
It will definately have a rotated turbo kit, custom fuel rails/system, shave/wire tuck and a semi custom aps 725 fmic
heres a pic from after the first few days of cutting and grinding

Most have an adapter plate made. I will probably do the same.
| 25rsti | 06-06-2011 03:40 PM |
That's what I did. Same intake manifold as Quads. I had a friend machinist make a spacer to adapt. It was sticking to far out though due to me reversing the manifold so I had Synaptic3 cut out the original throttle body flange and sunk in the new adapter and welded that on.

oh shoot, I forgot, something happened along time ago didnt it. No biggie, I haven't updated my thread for along time. I'll post pics of my manifold in a couple days. Just finished re-sanding it "again". I didn't like the way the paint came out so I put another 20hrs into it. Plan on primering it today and painting it tomorrow. I have about 100hrs into my manifold. I have no power tools so it was all done by hand, who needs a gym when you've got a manifold with crazy surfaces and areas to blend lol.
| Quadsbc | 06-08-2011 05:15 PM |
^^Damnn I got about 40hrs in on mine with power tools. You should just skip paint and go with powdercoating. It would really look much better. Also join CTSubie.com

| D Money | 06-14-2011 09:45 PM |
^Fuse box you can just stretch into the fender, but you'll see wires going across the fender area. Battery box is about $150-176 for a good one and comes with everything you need. Labor, who knows about that. Hopefully you have nice friends like I do!

Yeah, just a few small issues, pinched brake line, therefore manual brakes. So I'll be fixing that tomorrow. Needs a good hose tuck then I'll be done amongst other minor things.
Also threw in my V-Mount, looks so good.
I'll post good pics up once my build is done.
