2015 WRX - INSTALLING ETS FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER & HKS BLOW OFF VALVE! 

KING AKOO he is a pretty cool dude 😎

KING AKOO his paid dude. that's why

Cj Acepcion I dont know if you a hater are what lmao I didnt say he paid him are not but the fact that he always helps him at HIS OWN HOME is awsome its hard to find friends these day anyway so im just saying

O shit WAIT are you that dude lmao

Oh what?

thanks so much man!!

They don't really help. They are only rated to withstand 5-15mph impacts, which is pretty typical. Most cars don't really crash at highway speeds they slow down and crash at very low speed. The car is designed to crumple and deflect the impact away from the driver. If the crash beam did much more than it already does it would be like you hitting a brick wall and would kill you rather than protect you. The biggest issue here isn't safety but the fact that your insurance would deny your claim in a front end collision because you tampered with the safety equipment. It might not make sense why they would do that if it does virtually nothing in the first place, but their goal isn't to pay out claims it's to weasel their way out of as many payouts as possible. As you can see in this video the car isn't traveling super fast but still seems scatter parts all over the place. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KHO_Iq6zZE8.html Impacts happen from distracted drivers who are doing something like texting and driving then suddenly hit the brakes to avoid an accident. That is why most crash tests are done from 35 and under. Most people driving on the interstates going 60-70mph attempt to stop and crash into cars in front of them that are stopped at 5-25mph. Modern cars stop very well compared to older cars so the odds of higher speed crashes are lower. What concerns me the most is that the piece of metal they removed mildly helps keep the frame straight during very heavy cornering. It is also designed to break away to create a weak point to allow that corner of the car to crumple. Does it really need to be there? I'm not sure. Sorry to reply to such a old reply by the way. It's just important for people to know why it is there.

In other words, the ETS FMIC is one expensive crash beam

Or drunk driver lol

@@dsmbilly3690 damn thanks for that info, very useful

Not true. I was in a 45 mile an hour crash and the crash beam saved my engine.. I still totalled the car but only a chunk of the bumper cover was removed, no dammage to the front hood or engine. Withiut a crash beam the whole engine will get collapsed theres nothing to absorb the crash without it. Bought my car without one. And it would suck getting in a 5 mph fender bender cause then you damage your ecpensive ass fmic you just put on.

thanks John!

thanks man!!

hahahaha we got it connected

Dustin Williams haha nice. When are you going to dyno it?

thanks man!!

Tato. I wouldn’t completely base your STI build off of a WRX build. Completely different motor bud

thanks dude! really appreciate it!

Sean Fricke I second that. When I get my Sti I will not do a frontmount. Removing the crash beam and the other piece be did RIP car if he gets hit in front. Instead of the crash beam doing its job to absorb the crash it's going to demolish the front end and mess the frame up.

Or get a speed density set up.

Does a recirculating bov still make the same noise?

yes!

thanks!

oh yes, it's going to be sick

Mickey Andrade no it fit perfectly. We were both glad that happened. Almost like it was made for the bumper.

not at all!
