Unfortunately for the GR STI's, there's been folks with OTS maps and protunes that still had ringland failures.

Stock power has been way more than I need / can handle for the past 16k miles, so I'd rather not have to worry about warranty if my engine does blow up.

I will be honest though, everytime I go and visit my folks at Fairfield, I'm so tempted to go look for Ed hehehe
