Hi Carsten, It is pretty easy to find another intercooler. There are several companies on the net that make them, in all shapes and sizes. I'm standing by to...
Mickey, I'd forgotten about the upcoming turbo. I still have at least a year before I'm anywhere near flying, so it might be out by then. So this allows me to...
Anyone who wants to see the Gary Newsted electronic throttle hookup can see it on this month’s engine web page: http://brian76.mystarband.net/engineDec06.htm...
Just to let you know you are not alone in wanting to make several changes to the package. But, like you its gotta fly first. Can't wait any longer to test...
Carsten, Don’t know if I ever told you, but if you’re ever up this way, please feel free to stop by & see my installation I’m around every day brian ... ...
Brian, thanks! I'd be very interested. Free time is tight before the holidays, but let me check on the family demands, and I'll get back to you off-list. ...
I stopped by Brian's house today, deep in the NH woods. As described on his website he has made significant progress, is close to having completed his...
By how much is the Van's cowling too short for this STi engine? Are we talking an inch, half inch or what? ... From: EggenfellnerSubaruSTI@yahoogroups.com ...
A builder of the H6 are reporting a 3/4" gap between the spinner and the cowling when it mates up with the firewall. In my case, with the older engine mount...
Out of curosity Chuck and I mounted the prop and spinner then fit the cowl today to see if we had inadvertantly worked ourselves into a problem. We are...
I haven’t checked my cowl fit yet. I am proceeding under the assumption that, if it is too short when I come to that, I will just rivet a strip of 0.063”...
We never did find out why Subaru has this wrong. You are forced to make your own marks, with the engine lever, after running, then sitting for a while. Jan...
Can someone tell me what the torque should be when mounting the upgraded SC Drive pulley? Also, I think I remember a comment about replacing the bolt if it has...
No problem making marks, but where should the marks be, above or below the Subaru full mark, and by how much? ... From: EggenfellnerSubaruSTI@yahoogroups.com ...
The oil level is set by first adding the right amount of oil. Then dip the stick in the oil, then make a mark. The center pulley bolt should be inspected and...
That’s what I keep trying to find out, with no luck. I exchanged a couple emails with Robert on the question, but no definitive answer. I know I can add...
Jan, First off, thanks for the response regarding the SC dive pulley. I have been researching / studying forced induction tuning and doing so has gotten me...
Getting closer all the time! Last night, I finished making the connector for the electronic throttle. I plugged that in, connected the ECM switch, and powered...
STI group. This forum could use a little action, so I thought I would post something here. Ziggy, I would love to hear an update on your progress. How many ...
Hi Randy, Great note - thanks for the update. I think I'm in about the same place you are - ready to start on the cowl. I just installed the aeromotive fuel...
Randy/ Mickey Thanks for the progress reports. FWIW here is my status report. a.. The engine is installed and run - I have modified the engine mount,...
John and Mickey, Thanks for the responses. Good tip regarding the secondary wood ring for the ID of the cowl. Good timing for me... Here is one you might be...
Randy, Thanks for the update. It is good to hear from others that are somewhere close in the process. If we are not careful, we will soon have to take this ...
STI group, merry christmas to all of you ! Thank you Randy for your report. I just returned from flying on a -3°C day. Visibilties were from pole to pole. I...
... Hi Siggi, Great info - thanks for sharing it. The starting problem does not sound good. Are you really sure that the cam sprockets are on right, not off ...
Mickey, I am pushing to get my plane finally finished within the next three weeks. It will be kept in Germany until spring. As usual I go for skiing in Zermatt...
Ziggy and all, Thanks for the reports. It is good to see some information flowing here again. I think I count possibly 5 STI powered airplanes that might fly...
