Downpipe, Intercooler, Tune at the same time. We have the ****tiest intercoolers, they like to blow up even at stock boost levels.

Definitely get some good brake pads too when you can, stock subaru ones have good initial bite but don't hold up well, plus having a turboback and a tune will definitely put you back in your seat, you'll want the extra braking power.

Stop by the Ocha meet its in the meetings events Donuts section. It's in San Mateo and starts around 8ish. Post up in there, we have a few 08+ wrxs that come out and I have a legacy which is the same platform for engines. Check it out
