One bottle treats up to 20 gals, so I use about half the bottle every fill up.

Getting rid of the annoying 2.5K -> 3K stumble - deleted the Dampers, Cross Over Tube and went with a GD style Fuel Pressure regulator.

Are your new pads the same brand and type as your old set? Just thinking about the bedding in off the new rotors...

I sell it for 10 a bottle.
I use Redline and it does provide a noticeable bump, though I tend to use it only once or twice a year. Put it in when the tank is almost empty and run it like that for a while then fill up over it, usually before a long drive. On my last trip I got right around 30mpg in the FXT, which was unheard of in my WRX. It usually sells for $12, but I managed to pick it up for $9 a few weeks ago; too bad they didn't have more.

Nope, had Axxis Ultimates switching to Porterfield R4S. Car hasn't moved from the garage since I put the rotors on, new pads should be here tomorrow.

Sup PROcede, I checked the logs, the FBK didn't happen on the pulls, was doing a cruise data log before hand and looks like it happened on a shift. Looking good so far though. I'm not getting any stumbles either so far, per his requirement - I replaced the stock damper / fuel pressure regulator setup.

check out this cool site one of the forester guys posted last week for sharing/showing data logs in a graph style!
