Maintaining your Turbo Charged Impreza Car Engine

Starting and Stopping your Engine ( including Turbo Timers) When starting the engine, do not press the throttle at the same time! The engine management system is programmed to automatically adjust the settings and if you should press the throttle during the sequence it is actually possible to cause the system to shut down with the result of a non starting car. (A couple of owners have reported a more persistent starting problem. When the dealer connected the "select monitor" to the ECU, a fault in the crank sensor was reported: a new crank sensor cured the starting problems) In order to prolong engine life, a few common sense rules should be followed when starting and stopping the engine of your Impreza. When starting the engine from cold, you should avoid hard acceleration or high revs (i.e. boost conditions on turbo cars) until the engine has fully warmed up. Most engine wear occurs within the first few minutes after starting when the engi...

The HKS Carbon-Ti catback exhausts are exclusive Special Edition HKS Hi-Power catback exhaust systems . Also referred to as the HKS Carbon Titanium Hi-Power catback exhaust, these exclusive versions of the HKS Hi-Power catback exhaust consist of a carbon-fiber wrapped muffler shell, titanium tip, and polished SUS304 stainless steel piping for a stylish and aggressive look. Each HKS Carbon-Ti catback exhaust looks as good as it performs. Inspired by GT racing in Japan, HKS developed its Carbon-Ti catback exhaust system with features found on racing exhaust systems. The HKS Carbon-Ti catback exhaust series incorporates a race inspired offset muffler and piping design, eliminating unnecessary bends for the straightest exhaust path. This less restrictive design allows the HKS Carbon-Ti catback exhaust to have greater exhaust flow and less back-flow pressure, enhancing higher-PRM power gains. The HKS Carbon-Ti catback exhaust system can be used for both turbocharged and naturally aspirated ...
