It was modded when I bought it. The owner had a Cobb Ap and was running the wrong map. I was getting feedback knock often and the Dam value was dropping frequently . I changed to a Cobb intake vs the eBay one the car came with , and got a protune by a known tuner with a good rep. After the engine issues , I checked for codes. They where all cam related. There where no codes while driving. I already have a low mileage used engine on the way. I

Any help?
Model/Year: 2019 wrx premium
Milage: 40,000 EM: Cobb stage 2 91 Mods: Cobb big sf intake, invidia catted turbo back, Perrin AOS, Perrin charge pipe Fuel: 91 Circumstances: it was -32 here for three days. Car wouldn’t start, finally got started third morning, let warm up for 30 minutes. Left house, coolant temp was at 135. Got on highway, started to accelerate, hit third gear with boost at around 6 psi, and BPV opened and closed for unknown reason. Boost spiked upon BPV closing, and then a bunch of smoke out exhaust and pumped all my oil out exhaust in 10 seconds. Actual engine failure: hoping just turbo. Need more info? |

Looking back I sometimes wish I'd gone dual catch when I installed my FP blue. I'd still rather have an AOS than nothing though... |

If ou mod, you SHOULD know what the pros & cons are as well as newly added maintenance. An AOS is a reliability mod for its function on any turbo car --- keeping oil out of the intake tract or at the very least minimizing it. Over the life of the car, this is a good thing. In the immediate short-term... probably not going to be worth it especially with the majority of the community here keeping these cars for relatively short term. An AOS can be a liability mod if you do not know how to check or maintain the mod. If you live in an area where freezing temps can take place, you should be running some sort of check list to make sure you are good on all fronts --- one of them being a backed-up & frozen AOS line. Sound like OP --- no disrespect intended --- thought an AOS was a "reliability" mod where you just install & forget about it. Unfortunately, that is not the case considering the blocked/frozen line that he failed to maintain/resolve. So, if you know what you are getting into, you will value the mod or not. Routine check ups on mods and general maintenance can help prolong the life of the vehicle as a system and of individual parts as well. If you plan on YOLO-ing the mods, don't be surprised when something goes south... Pay to play, amiright boiz? Here is a solid reference for almost any mod. I went through almost all of this and it helped me understand alot of what mods did and why we would do them in the first place. Still reference it from time to time. very well done. https://forums.nasioc.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=533787 Last edited by noobultimatum; 02-24-2021 at 09:14 AM.

Hasnt blown up or had and real issues
2019 WRX 30k miles Cobb stage 2+ BSF 93 OTS Wawa 93 Mishimoto intake, Mishimoto catted j pipe, mt45 muffler deletes and xclutch organic 500hp clutch The clutch blows, wouldnt recommend Have had the tune and all mods for over a year now (roughly 17k miles). Have had 2 turbo overboost codes about 5k miles apart, DAM dropped once and other than that the occasional -1.41 from bad gas. Its my daily and i enjoy driving it almost too much. Im a tech at a subaru dealer so im not too worried about blowing it up but so far so good. If you like the car, want it to go faster and have the connections or resources to get cheap work done, do it. |

how can cruise control lug the engine though?? cruising at 60mph the computer reads 5-10% throttle. If I see a hill ahead ill speed up for it or go into 5th. This is common knowledge for manual driving. Its not the car's fault its owner is sending it up a hill crawling in 6th. my engine hasn't failed yet, I will make sure to post here when it doesn. I am going to get at least 200,000 miles out of it.

27k miles Mods: aem intake, turboxs Downpipe, gs ebcs, gs tmic, egr/tgv deletes, flex fuel kit, random axle back Symptoms: excessive blow by, smoke from oil fill/dip stick, rough idle, loss of power. Literally just got my base map and parts installed right before all of this happened. Not sure how or why but I’m guessing cracked/blown ring lands. Gonna have compression and leak down test here soon… will edit once I find out. Car has been babied since I bought it with 19k miles/ 1 year ago. Oil changes done every 3k. Maintenance in general done accordingly to subarus recommendations. |

Model/Year: 2015 WRX Base
Mileage: Approx 58,XXX EM: Stock Mods: Stock Fuel: 91 Oil: 5W-30 Circumstances: Was driving home on the freeway after work. Accelerated to pass a car and got off at my exit (That part of the freeway where this incident happened is at an incline). I immediately started hearing a "knocking sound". I drove the last mile very slowly. Based on videos and other online info I figured the engine failed but couldn't figure out why. I checked the oil and it read as having plenty. Actual engine failure: Subaru claims that, after teardown, it had only 1.5 quarts of oil which caused major damage. Weird thing is the car didnt have a history of severely burning oil, no leaks, I had the oil changed less than 4 months prior and drove it about 2k miles in that time. Also, the Low Oil Pressure light never came on, before or after the issue |
