This is the first step in modifying your WRX or STI for better performance.
This package will greatly improve the overall response, smooth out drivability, improve fuel economy, and improve overall reliability of the engine. This package will also provide a slight increase in turbo induction sound. Expected power gains are 50-60 Horsepower and 50-60Ft-Lbs of torque. Total install time is about 1 hour.
This setup consists of an AEM Cold Air Intake and Cobb AccessPort V3 with EQT Custom Base Map:
-- We start with an AEM Cold Air Intake which increases airflow and improves overall response. We chose the AEM CAI for its excellent fit and finish as well as consistent and stable airflow and MAF sensor characteristics. Some intakes on the market introduce unwanted turbulence around the MAF sensor which can cause inconsistent fueling, power, and drivability issues. Many intakes also do not use heatshields which results in heat soak and very high Intake Air Temperature readings which reduces power and consistency. We've tested many different intakes on the market and found the AEM CAI to be the best all around in all of these categories.-- We round out the setup with a Cobb AccessPort V3 with an EQT Custom Base Map. The Cobb AccessPort is the world's best selling, most flexible ECU upgrade solution that gives us full control over the factory ECM. With this package we include an EQT Base Map custom tailored to these specific modifications to optimize power, response, drivability, and reliability. We achieve this by fine tuning and optimizing boost levels, air/fuel ratios, ignition timing and cam timing for the specific parts and fuel being used. Our custom base map for your car will be loaded onto the AccessPort and ready to install.
