What Are The different Stages of a Subaru?
Рет қаралды 216,748
Күн бұрынWelllllllcome back! In this video we talk about what exactly each stage of a Subaru is, what are the expected power levels and how much does each stage cost. Overall this is general information that I wanted to get out there as I still see some confuse in the community and wanted to do what I could to help Clear it up!
I suggest using Cobb Parts (Cobb is not sponsoring or affiliated with this video)

I would say that stage 1 is just the tune with accessport and stage 1+ is ap with intake the +1 being the intake in stages. Stage 2 is downpipe and ap (cobb supported) and stage 2+ is air intake, downpipe, and ap (maperformance) no issues here with ap readings. Stage 3 bolt ons, flex, & other supporting modifications. Just my thoughts. Good video 😎🤙

BoostedQuickScope There is nothing that will outright “void” your warranty. Nothing. However, if something breaks, malfunctions, etc. SOA will try and most likely succeed in linking any and all hard part modifications/ecu tuning etc. as the reason for engine failure. Best advice I can give (I have a 2019 wrx and went stage 2 over 3k miles ago) is do your research intensely and then do it some more. Welcome to the subie fam and hopefully the tuning world bro, stay safe and mod smart

From a guy at Boost Controlled Performance, you can see upwards of 350whp and 340 ftlbs of torque. Going higher than 350 torque is what causes engines to blow on stock internals. You can obviously make around 400+ with e85 BUT you need upgraded pistons and conrods.

Hey @Smeedia, I just want to make a correction on what you said: Stage 1 for WRX: you literally only need the accessport and flash it on all stock parts, not the intake. I know "opinions" varies, but if you consult forums and reputable tuners, they'll tell you that the intake is one of the LAST mods you should do. The factory one is actually very good up to ~400HP. Cold air intake is nothing more than a sweet noise maker and at most, you'll gain 5-10hp for a $300-$400 upgrade. You're better off spending that money on a AOS and TGV/EGR delete than an aftermarket intake. PS- I'm not biased. My WRX is a "stage 3" track-oriented car. And I have an aftermarket CAI.

@@hariskeso4183 my car makes 351whp and 403wtq at e70 and only 309whp and 353wtq on 91oct. The car runs great and feels great with all the other driver mods I've done to it since (pitch stop mount and brace, bushings, tranny mounts, engine mount, etc). The only downside rn is Cobb's ethanol sensor failing on me but it's getting warrantied to their newest version and my fuel pump failing due to wiring and voltages/amps on the stock wiring harness for the fuel pump (aem 340). But other than those minor inconveniences, the car always puts a smile on my face every time I drive it or look at it.

Your videos are full of knowledge. I’m learning a lot from it. Thanks for what you do. And btw, idk where’d you get the $2100 stage 3 price but on their website, they selling it for $4600-$5000 depending on what you get.

Hey dude! Love all your videos, great learning lessons. I'm running a 2006 WRX Limited w/DC Short Ram Intake, STI intercooler, Exedy Stage 1 clutch, and COBB AP. FINALLY getting it dyno tuned in a few weeks to Stage 1+. I've already taken care of all the general maintenance (timing belt, head gaskets, etc.) but the engine has approximately 180K on it....This will be the last engine mod because Betsy ain't no spring chicken anymore but wanted to know your opinion about the upgrade and what to avoid with a high-mileage engine. Thanks in advance!

I think it needs to be pointed out that peak HP is not the only thing you get with tuning. I have an 18 STI for example, and with a tune alone I didn't get much more peak HP, but I got a hell of a lot more power lower down in the RPM range. It makes the car noticeably quicker.

Agreed, the low end is where we spend most of our time driving as well.

Quick question. Does cobb’s AP have a tune for a 2016 WRX for the stage 2? (Just the turbo back exhaust and stage 1). And also thinking about getting cobb’s top mount intercooler. If I did, would that change how tuning to stage 1 or stage 2 would go? Car is currently completely stock.

Awesome video bro! One little issues I had with it though is the fact you only focused on the 2015+ WRX. While I understand that's what you have, it seems like every damn video on youtube is just 2015+ WRXs. Even though I'd say more people still own and drive older models such as myself. It makes it a lot harder and very frustrating to find info especially in video form for these cars. Other than that, great video, and sweet Subie too!
@Smeedia 4 жыл бұрын
Totally understandable, I did address the older gens later in the video based off of the STIs numbers. Because the older EJ255s, 205s are similar to the 257 you should expect about 20-30 less WHP with the stages. But thank you for throwing it out there I'll make it a little more prevalent in the videos!
@Reefer-Rampage69 4 жыл бұрын
@@Smeedia No thank you bud I appreciate it! There is a decent amount of info online for the older generations but it's very hard to find actual dyno numbers. Even Cobb has none on their website that I could find at least, for anything below the 2015 model years haha

Hey man I got a quick question for you. My tuner recommended a Boost Controller before I get my car stage 1+ tuned. What are your thoughts about this? They said it was just to make it so the tuner can control the boost better. Just wanted to get your thoughts before I buy and Install one.
