Apetron's 2007 STI Flared, E85, Lots of Carbon - 422whp/457ft-lbs
 

Hey All -

Here is my ongoing progress and work on my 2007 STI.

I bought the car new in April of 2007, and have slowly been working on it over the course of the past 6 years.

Car went from mostly stock, to stage 2, to stage 2 with E85, to fully built, to fully built and sleeved so far.

Nice car!!!I just went through the same Crap as you, #4 ringland. But the new power must be worth the troubles..Always wandered who owned that Sti @Eq..

Very nice! That's about the atp 3076 turbo right?

Looks amazing!! That turbo is the same as a ato 3076 right?

Nice!! Can't wait until I get my car back :cool:

Similar, however you have a 3" inlet and your hotside is slightly larger.

This is a 2.4" inlet and 7cm hotside.

Wow, that's one serious build! Looks even better in person! :thumb:

I actually had ringlands cracked on #1 and #4, burnt exhaust valve guides and seals, and my factory crank was out of spec on the #4 rod journal. (Crank was milled incorrectly from Subaru, no spun bearings or evidence of any type of damage.) Yay!

Looks great, when you going to Infineon? We need to get a good Subaru turn out one day!

Probably not anytime soon, not into drag racing or 1/4 mile stuff really. I'll probably be up there this fall for a track day or 2 but that's probably about it.

If there was a huge group going I'd maybe be up for it once just to see how it does, but other then that probably not.

Yea, and I am on stock headers, catted downpipe, internal wastegate, and greddy evo 2 catback which is pretty restrictive.

I think you'll be in the 450 range easily.

Cusco V-Brace (trunk)
Cusco Front sway bar
Cusco rear lower braces
