So as ive shared before i bought an 03 wrx with a decent build list including a fully built motor well it was running very very poorly well after removal and inspection of the motor come to find out the passenger side intake cam had aheared off the dowl pin. Somehow by the grace of god it didnt make the valves come into contact with the pistons and everything is perfectly fine in the motor. Lucky me. Cheap and easy fix for a car i paid 2000$ for. Now to get the motor back in the car and get it retuned because i dont onow who tuned and i dont know if can trust them like i trust mig 😂 also based on the build list i added (keep in mind whoever typed out the list cant type because they are 1000cc injectors) what HP number should it be good…

Whats up everyone? I have an event coming up that is going to require a long drive to get there (taking kids with me) and isn't going to require that my car be making max power... im considering pulling my Tomei catback off and putting the stock catback in its place for the weekend to cut down on noise. Am I going to have issues/ can it make the tune not work properly? I realize im likely pushing if not exceeding the limit of the stock exhaust. Wouldn't be permanent, just a weekend thing to make the drive a bit more pleasant.
Current setup is:
2016 sti- stock block/heads
Plm ELH, up-pipe+44mm ewg, and catted DP
TOMEI expreme Ti
8cm Dom 1.5 with g30-660 wheels

Ok so i have got a hybrid ej build so 2.5 block and 2.0 heads with bigger aftermarket cams (dont know the specs right now since i didnt build the motor) anyways the car will try to start and run but it idles very very poorly. Plus i was getting oil into one of the cylinders so i pulled the motor but i believe the valve stem seals are worn. I put air pressure into the cylinders and dont hear any leaks into the crankcase or out from the intake valves while the motor is sitting static. However when cranking with the starter i was getting air puffs from the intake valves. So im wondering if with aftermarket cams would i need adjustable cam gears or what. Or does anyone have any other suggestions?
Not an expert in this, but it sounds like bad sealing of the intake valves, possibly bent if youre getting decent puffs through the intake. May be worth doing compression/leak down test to verify all is well.

Ok so got this 03 wrx. Having an issue where the car dies not want to start. If you give it full throttle it will stumble sometimes. Cant get my code scanner to connect to the ecu either. Any ideas?

Almost sounds like a light miss. Try reflashing the tune and do a relearn. Something could have changed slightly.
