i have an 02 WRX and recently purchased a Cobb accessport v.1. I "installed" the stage 2 map with 91 gas map and have noticed that when i push the car, it hesitates, the RPM indicator kicks up fast (above 3k RPM) but the car doesnt pull. After about a couple seconds I noticed the indicator goes back down and then the car begins to pull. What could be causing this problem?

I have a Perrin pulley, Helix catted DP, STI up pipe, and Perrin Turbo Inlet Hose installed with about 89K miles.

Thanks in advance for any help

 

Sounds like your clutch is slipping.

 

^ that is what I was gonna say!

 

yes.. sounds like clutch.. at least u dont have my stage 2 ots map problem!

 

thanks for the input fellas. im going to get the clucth done soon any suggestions where to take it? Not looking to spend an arm and a leg though...

 

I did it myself. It's not so bad, just have another Subaru buddy helpin you out. Plus you'll learn alot about your car that way.

Look into an Exedy Stg. 1 clutch or ACT's.

 

i picked up the exedy clutch/fly wheel combo from gruppe-s was $650 shipped to HI..i'm sure it's a lil cheaper for you mainland guys..anyways installin it was simple and luvin the feel..since your down there re-place the main seal (it's only 15 bucks)..you mite also wanna look into the ss clutch line i heard good things about it..pedal feel is great and i'm luvin it..

 

hey Hayn WRX where did u get instructions on installing the clutch? I have a buddy that may help me out. Thanks guys. Man I wish I live in Hawaii.
