I have been following the wheel well issue since @TUnica described it. I plan to fix it as well with the kit that @heinvs made when I get my GT (~April). So far I have not heard of ANY traction with Ford on the issue. I have tried with the rep that follows this forum. He blew me off. I...
Nice try. That's not it.
The recording was from the front of the car and it was revved several times. It sounded more like my old Carter AFB without the air cleaner.
This will most likely be my last new car. As you can see by the build in my signature, I went whole hog on the performance addons.
When I get my GT, I'll have to do some test drives with the various settings to see if I notice any differences.
I am in uncharted territory here.
Wow! I REALLY feel old now.
My 2018 WRX is electronic. I didn't know that. However, my throttle response is more than satisfactory. I don't notice any lag.
Boy, do I feel old!
Are you saying the linkage between the accelerator pedal and the throttle body is electronic? This could be kinda scary from a Big Brother perspective.
When I test drove a GT with an MT-82 back in early December, I didn't sense any throttle response lag.
Yes, I double checked. The lady said it populated with make & model. I got my VIN two weeks this Thursday.
We may get built the same week. I'm scheduled for week of 3/25.
After all this research, I finally called USAA to get a quote based on the VIN.
Bottom line, my six month rate will only go up $50.00 for both cars. Perhaps USAA thought my WRX (being dropped) was a race car!
Another user from Florida was quoted 4200.00 per year from USAA. I'm on the phone with USAA now trying to get a quote. $4,200 a year is a deal killer for me.
I want to hear the pipes - NOT the air intake. Someone made a recording of revving the engine after one of these installs. Most of what I heard was the Waaaah of the air intake.
