    Just a tip for foresters: don't try pulling up pipe out from below... pull the up pipe out out from top (behind turbo) rotate pipe and out through the space where down pipe would be.

      Patric McClancy I would pull it from the bottom. All you have to do is jack the motor up a few inches and your can sneak it out. Iv done so many I wouldn't do it any other way

    I saw this video too late! The catalytic converter already plugged my turbo and I had the change the up pipe, luckily it didn’t destroy the turbo. I just had to remove every single piece from inside the turbo

      Good to hear. I just replaced my turbo on a new to me 05XT and could see that cat down there in the uppipe - looked really good actually. I think i will checking the thing once a year until i bite the bullet and change out the uppipe.

    Lots of great information on your site, thanks!
    Have you seen any difference in using a smaller diameter pipe versus a larger size? Aftermarket ones range from 1.75 inches to 2 inches (4.4cm versus 5cm)

    Hi Brett, You may obviously not know me but a personal friend of yours says Hi! His name is Jim from Mackay North QLD.

    @MRT Performance Does a aftermarket CATless up pipe need a ECU tune after or is it safe to keep running the standard ECU mapping?
    Does it throw CEL codes because the CAT has been removed as there is a sensor in that up-pipe?
    Thanks Brett

    Based on the forester models that had air pumps not having upipe cats, is it correct that all turbo model subaru with air pumps don't have catted up pipes.

    Do you have an instructional video on how to change the up pipe? I’m from the US and I don’t really trust any shops to work on my cars. This Forester XT is my first Subaru so this is a whole new ballpark compared to my SRT4

    Does the same apply for an 05 Baja turbo? And can you get a careless up pipe for that? Also if so is there any tuning required for just the careless up pipe? I’m working on a budget as I just replaced my turbo.

      Yes, the baja all have the catted up-pipe and you can use any up-pipe for the wrx, sti and forester. I bought an HKS uppipe for my 05 baja turbo.

    1 John 3:15 (KJV)
    15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him
    Psychologists generally define forgiveness as a conscious, deliberate decision to release feelings of resentment or vengeance toward a person or group who has harmed you, regardless of whether they actually deserve your forgiveness. ... Forgiveness does not mean forgetting, nor does it mean condoning or excusing offenses.
    Matthew 5:44;
    44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; ... [46] For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye?
    If we forgive others, we will be forgiven. "And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."
