Re: WRX Mods

More parts

Perrin 22mm adjustable rear anti-sway bar; should work very nicely with the Eibach ProKit lowering springs!


Megan bellmouth 3" catless downpipe; final part needed before the car gets tuned.




Extra o2 bung for a wideband or maybe EGT probe.

Re: WRX Mods

Downpipe and anti-sway bar installed! Thanks to Scheides, Anna, and Emily for lending a hand, and thanks to Shane for a Stage 2 base ROM to hold us over until Janelle is able to get in for a tune!

The swaybar install was a breeze and the downpipe wasn't too bad, it was just the stock heatshields that were a total PITA. Start to finish, including ECU testing/flashing, only took about 4 hours.

I'm sure Janelle will post pics later

I've got that exact sway bar! A guy actually gave it to me for frizee! Pick up some solid endlinks and put that bad boy to use!

Re: Janelle's WRX Mods

Yeah the stock plastic end-links are weak as heck, plus they have rubber mounting points on either side

Re: Janelle's WRX Mods

These look like a good, lower cost, option:

Eh if you're going to buy something, you might as well get something worth the money. I found a set of Perrin links for $90 shipped, but I passed em up because I feel I can find a better deal. Some chick from the boards told me she picked up a set of cobb links for like $50 shipped.

Here's the Perrin links I was thinkin about.

Whiteline does great suspension work so I trust their products. I think those steel rod ones will be plenty for a 22mm bar, especially since they are much thicker than the stock Evo links that are supporting my 24mm bar.

Re: Janelle's WRX Mods

Janelle will be posting pics when she stops being lazy

Shane from DB (ecoli) gave us a Stage 2 base ROM to use for the time being, but as soon as we get a chance we'll be bringing it to him for a full dyno tune. Hopefully we'll be able to get it done later this month.

I see this is coming along very nicely, hopefully next time I see you guys on the highway we will have to test and compare.

Re: Janelle's WRX Mods

OK well I tried to upload the pics last night... but either my pictures are too big or Scheides needs an update to the upload software... or both =P

Will get them up soon.
