Excellent video. Really clear. Great work. Just what I needed. I need to gain access to the gearbox speed sensor. So this has helped a lot. Thanks for sharing.
I don't know what I'd do without you. Currently tackling take the motor out of my 2007 STi for headgaskets! PS you can make all those fins look perfect if you use some tweezers to grab them individually, and pull straight out. Long process but makes it like new.
Yes. Totally fine. If that AC compressor is making noise or failing - this is definitely a good option if you want to postpone fixing it, or of you just don’t need the AC anymore. Cheers buddy! Thanks for checking out the videos!
SubaruONLY cool that's what's up. actually is working nothing wrong with it. I just took the crank Pulley and timing cover off just for a Inspection had to cut the AC belt off thank you very much
That’s the PVC system crossover pipe - pulls those oily vapors from the valve covers and injects in the turbo inlet side of intake. This is also where you want to tap into the system and add a high quality air/oil separator! 👍
It's me again with GC8 v5 sti. It has another problem which is cruise surge. when pressing the gas pedal gently for slight acceleration, the car will not bring more power, but RPM still rising steadily. After pressing the gas pedal more, it will "kick" you and accelerating hard. Feels like it can only hard accelerate and boost up but not cruise. I have changed to OEM AFM and OEM super coolant, no big intake leak, and idle boost pressure -17psi. Engine running fine with no vibration or misfire. Could be a fuel pump or fuel regulator?
Very informative and you always have a good camera angle.
this was so helpful ive watched a bunch of tutorials and this was the best one
Perfect. 👌

Hell yea, good call on the tweezers! Thanks!
Quality stuff. Keep the build going!
Thanks!!! Working on the next one every night!!! 😁😁😁
Great video man, never removed my TMIC before and this was a great overview! Thanks!
Stoked it helped. Cheers man! 👊
awesome video. POV removal and easy & detailed explanation
Great video I want to ask you if I would be ok driving without AC belt on my 2010 Forester sohc
Yes. Totally fine. If that AC compressor is making noise or failing - this is definitely a good option if you want to postpone fixing it, or of you just don’t need the AC anymore. Cheers buddy! Thanks for checking out the videos!

Np buddy. Cheers! 🤙
thanks mate
followed these steps lastnight and got it off and on -- getting the y-pipe back on the turbo was a nightmare if i'm honest haha
True. I need to show some tricks for that step!!!
Perfect explanations! Looking forward on learning how to remove the whole engine. Thanks!
Awesome thanks.
Great explanation of every step. I love it. I build more confident in my ability to do my own swap one day with my gc8. Keep it up!
Thanks man. Stoked to hear!
My tmic is stuck at the turbo inlet. Played with it for hours yesterday only got it to budge a little but it won't slide off..
Spray a little WD-40 around the seal. Should help.
Helped me out big time 🙏
Great TIP Love the video
Thanks. Many more to come! 😁😁
will removing intercooler to maintenance the starter affect my cars tune setup?
Thanks for the video. You just got a new subscriber
Can i do this while all the fluids are still in the car?
What's the two pipes on the front called
That’s the PVC system crossover pipe - pulls those oily vapors from the valve covers and injects in the turbo inlet side of intake. This is also where you want to tap into the system and add a high quality air/oil separator! 👍
This oil in TMIC is from PCV or turbo? How much oil is too much?
Most often from the PVC system. If it totally coated and some liquid oil is pooling up in the manifold low points, def too much oil. 👍
@@SubaruONLY thank you for the answer!
👍
I know this video is old but I have a question! Despite getting both bolts out of BOV it is completely stuck. Any advice to what I should do?
Maybe try whacking it a bit with a rubber mallet.
@@tomc8829 I definitely tried that. Actually ended up selling the car later!

And also tried ECU reset, plug green to green, and black to the black connector and drive for 1 minute above 11km/h.
Sounds like may be a good idea to take it to a tuner. Might have a larger turbo or other aftermarket parts.
@@SubaruONLY Accutually a smaller turbo, the factory was VF28 but TD04 now. Thanks for your help and ill get it to the tuner for inspection.
Ok, good luck. Hope it gets figured out! Cheers!!!
@@SubaruONLY Thanks again and problem solved, after I soaked the O2 sensor into gasoline overnight and reinstall it, it's running perfectly now.
YEEEESSSS! MORE MORE MOREEEE!! : )
You know it. Life and breath this stuff - it’s never ending journey man! And it only gets more interesting every year... 👊
I cannot believe I didn’t try taking the IC off with the Y pipe, don’t even mess with the screws in the back!
Totally. So much easier. Glad it helped.
