UP/DP installation difficultydanny8630 10-20-2004, 03:07 PM like the title. I would like to know how difficult it is to install these parts SabreKhan 10-20-2004, 03:58 PM I haven't actually done this mod, so I can't say for sure, but seems like it would just be one of those "unbolt the old one and bolt in the new one" kinds of things, right? I mean, they're a little bit buried in the engine bay, but with the right tools they're not all that hard to reach. danny8630 10-20-2004, 09:43 PM yeah, thats what im thinking. But im taking into consideration that on some cars, the motor has to actually be lifted, and/or critical engine components removed like the tranny or...something else that determines whether or not the engine will run. or better yet, rather than the engine being pulled; all of the hoses and brackets and rails will have to be taken off. If it is a pain in the ass, i probably won't do it simply for the sake of the car. freakray 10-20-2004, 10:01 PM Get the car up on a stand and have a look at how difficult it would be from underneath. I think the Subaru is actually one of the easier ones to tackle being a flat four. SabreKhan 10-22-2004, 11:13 AM Yeah, so many people have done this mod that I'm assuming any idiot can do it. lordvektra 10-23-2004, 10:26 PM I heard doing the up is a PITA, one guy said it took him 14 hours but im not sure if that’s the case with everyone, probably would be with me. I know you have to remove the IC if you go at it from the top. DP should be cake danny8630 10-24-2004, 01:46 AM if you do decide to do this mod, are both the UP and DP necessary or can they be installed solo? moger21 10-24-2004, 11:22 AM im pretty sure you dont have to do both at the same time. i know when i do those mods im doing it one at a time because i dont have the money to do them both at the sametime SabreKhan 10-25-2004, 10:33 AM You can definitely do them individually if you so desire (or because of monetary restrictions) lordvektra 10-25-2004, 12:09 PM You can definitely do them individually if you so desire (or because of monetary restrictions) What he said. if your going to do the up the best IMO is a gutted stock or a STI up that way you get the less restriction but none of the leaks and you can find both cheaper than most aftermarket brands. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
