I assume thats some sort of mechanical valve normally used in a heating system. Thats what I've seen for sale before for that money.

IMHO don't fit it or the induction kit, save the money for a remap for much better results.

Its not the cheap boost controller, its an "R" spec one, private seller... Bought but never fitted... Had one on my volvo 850 R worked very well....

Update!

Have now got the WR decals, fitting them on Saturday.... The ninja 2 exhaust is on and sounding mmmmmmmmmm awesome! Having a few probes with the DV though.... But that's another story! The prosport gauges are here too, so looking like a busy day for me on Saturday in the garage! Will update with pics after Saturday!

Default So here's the pic's!
After an 8 hour day in the workshop, ive totally transformed the outside of the car..... Here are some before and after pic's!

Tell me what you think

Engine bay before ........


And then after the demon motorsport induction kit is fitted ........


Heres the before side shot of the car ........


And then after the WR graphics were PAINFULLY fitted today ........


And then a few random before and after shots including some with the graphics during application!




















Hope you liked em?

Let me know what you think......

I also fitted my prosport gauges today, but only finished the boost gauge as i ran out of time, i need now to finish the oil temp and oil pressure gauge wiring including fitting the sensors!

Thanks guys, it looks good from a distance, however close up there's a few mistakes and bubbles/creases..... But a warm up with a hairdryer and a good squeegee should sort it.... The sponsor decals are not an exact copy of the wrx car but I wanted it to be personal to me
