And here we have a "Scooby" in its natural habitat. The Scooby tends to avoid over populated areas especially areas with asphalt. The Scooby spends most of its time sliding around corners, and when the scooby feals threatened, it rumbles or growls at you.
suspension, exhaust, bigger turbo, wing is OEM, and usually some kind of electronic in-cab tuning for the suspension/engine for when your on different road conditions.
Because the BOV is releasing air to the atmosphere instead of recirculating it like the stock recirc valve. The MAF as compensated a certain amount of gas for a certain amount of air, but some of that air is now being let out resulting in having more gas than air, causing backfire.
Mines just a standard gx bug so doesn't quite have this kind of rumble even though it's still there but not quite as loud, so do you reckon this would just be due to the centre pipe I have a pro drive back box but the middle pipes are only 2.5 inch I think so if I upped to 3.5 or around that do you think this would increase the noise I get by much? 🤔 😀👍🏼
I can't believe how many people are giving out so much bad information on why this car is backfiring. It's NOT because it's catless and it's NOT anti-lag! It's doing this because the motor is running rich most likely due to a combination of a rich tune and a vent to atmosphere blow off valve. When I was running a Cobb Stage 2 tune with a cat I would backfire a whole lot more than I currently do with my current catless setup and a pro tune.
It sometimes happens when you upgrade your car with aftermarket modifications which sometimes adds too much fuel ratio to the engine causing extra gas to flow through the muffler thus creating a backfire when the fuel burns.
Subarus naturally run rich and few of us still run catalytic converters so there is alot of unburnt fuel coming out of the exhaust. sometimes it explodes causing a backfire.
Got it.The in cab tunning for suspension if one of the thing i love :D Also ... does the wing work ? or is just LIKE a crappy aftermarket one that is just for looks and only create drag. Also 2 ... Is it true this things only work over 160 km/h ?
@Mariomonsta I'm 6' and if you let the seat back a little and slump you'll have tons of room, even if you put the seat up right to the stearing wheel like a granny you'll have room :) That's what I call inovation, gotta love the Subaru
i have a 02 wrx with a straight pipe from the cat back and i was wondering how you get it to make all the pops and bangs. i love that but i cant figure out how it works..
im pretty sure even the japanese engineers dont even know why the car back fires so much or how antilag works but they do know that is excess fuel and a hot exhaust and im guessing the timing right before you release the throttle allows the chambers to open before the flames are put out causing excess fuel to ignite , because fuel by itself doesnt blow up it burns so i has to be compressed with air for it to ignite like that maybe im wrong backfiring is still awesome esp the 2 step
you could always swap everything into an older GC/GF chasis. I have a WRX now but I pay the insurance of a impreza brighton. it's a big job but it's so worth it
@calebseestars1 incorrect. It's so much more than just mods that differentiate the three. 02-05 WRX's have an EJ205 (2.0L motor) which are open deck and somewhat decent internals. 04-07 STi (they didn't have STi's in America 02-03) have an EJ257 (2.5L Motor) with a semi closed deck. Some forged internals, bigger turbo, bigger intercooler, bigger everything. The base Impreza has an EJ251 (2.5L motor) which SOHC and has the basic of basic material internals. Basically Impreza:2.5, WRX:2.0, STi:2.5
He is probably running a tune that is a little bit rich for one... secondly it sounds like he has a blow off valve. Without some work and tuning the ECU still expects that air to come back into the intake through the recirc, but since it's getting vented to atmosphere the air is completely removed which is forcing the engine to run even more rich under deceleration. Hence all the backfiring caused by the mass amounts of unburnt fuel in the exhaust.
For those wondering about the exhaust set-up, by what I can see in the video it's a Lachute Performance cat-less turbo-back exhaust. Your car sounds great dude! Love bugeyes! In the vid, are you tearing around the Gatineau hills in the Pontiac area? Couple spots looked familiar.
It is a manufacture feature, when the parking brake is pulled the lights turn off, the car thinks it is in park. The guy just used it to slide the corner.
