Personally I would like a "flames out tailpipe on lift off" switch for night effect. Screw pop and burble, I want FIE-AH. Cat and exhaust may not like that, but....I still feel a need. lol

Also a setup with starter disable unless some sequence of switches are pushed for city parking would be nice.

Valet mode would be good for some too, limit revs to 3k,

So many things. I don't know what is and what isn't possible yet, but hope to find out.

Jan, maybe make a Vipec forum so we can try and keep things neat. Sticky up top for FAQ we create, etc.

@HRM - ask Jan for Rotational Idle with Afterburn for effect....... Tongue





Big Grin


Pointless....he doesnt have turbo, and hes not trying to make a antilag system....Or hell he might be i don't know lol.

There is a couple reasons for a rotation idle....Unless he has a rally car there really is no point.

Sounds like a vacuum leak to me...now if you put big cam(s) in then do RI it does sounds like its pretty mean. Well as mean as a 4cly can sound lol.



Aaaactually he does have a turbo. It's a 2006-2007 WRX STi (he just replaced the decklid to get rid of the retarded wing) it's still got the rear window spoiler on the the leading edge of the backglass  (harder to get rid of since it leaves holes. . .and generally if someone wants to do a fake STI, the giant retarded ass spoiler is the first thing they put on) and the  STi logo on the gauge cluster and the adjustable center differential (you can see the adjustment indicators on the top center between the fuel and temp gauges), The red stitching on the steering wheel, two tone interior  Those three bits are specific to the STi's.
Also looks like he's got it set up for an FMIC. . .engine bay shot is too dark to make out much else.

Sorry, my other car is an '07 STi Big Grin But with the boxer engine/unequal headers, a downpipe and a good exhaust (I'm using the borla hush), it sounds pretty darned mean and snarly without having to have the weird lope in the idle.


Lol being that I tune Subies, and mostly EVO's I know the Subie is turbo.

I was talking about HRM not having a turbo not the Subie.

Honestly since I've spent so much time overseas so much for work and only had a spare weekend here and there to work with her, it's taken forever and a half to get all the gremlins worked out so she was running like she should since the install was such a fiasco. I'm still pretty stinking irritated with the crap job Danny did when he put my car back together. . .AC didn't work, horns still don't work, fog lights didn't work, O2 sensor wire had a been crimped to some heat shielding which was causing some of our intermittent issues with tuning, there were number of spare parts in the back of the car that went AWOL, windows had been left open so the interior was full of grime and there was rainwater in the carpet and I'm still finding bolts he didn't tighten down. Oh well, live and learn. . .
The drive home from LA was amazing. . .highway 24 through Grand Capital Reef in Utah then through Colorado was pretty cool. As was a mid triple digit encounter with a jackrabbit that took out the front bumper, ac and radiator.
Then had the OEM harmonic balancer come apart on me. Smile

But all comedy aside when she's been running like a champ (like she is now) it's been an absolute blast. I'm actually taking her out of storage in Kansas tomorrow and am road tripping it out to my new home in VA this weekend and am planning on enjoying her again on a regular basis. (Woohoo!)

She's running pretty well but she could definitely use a retune, hopefully Jan will be around for a tuning party in the NE this spring and we can get the Vipec tuned in. Big Grin

And if those TVS rotors ever get finished up, I know there's a set with my name on them! Smile
