the 06 wrx maps available in the cobb site does not offer LWG or HWG maps, just stage 2 91-93oct and the ac91 oct maps.... i had to, like i said in my previous post, lengthen my wg arm to avoid the overboosting, the trade-off however is the fact that it made my car sound like it had a tremendous exhaust leak.

Issue is I don't think the v332 would support Aem intake. :/
I have installed a Perrin pitch stop and made a noticeable difference. When turning the car on it has a crisper sound. When cruising in 1 or 2nd the car doesn't jerk aggressively.
I only ran it around town once to test it, but my initial impressions....
- Starter was noticeably louder when firing the car up.
- Engine feels crisper turning over on startup if that makes sense.
- Car doesn't jerk around when braking hard and then accelerating..I'm sure this will help cornering.
- Shifts seem more solid with less lag/slop between gears and acceleration.
- Engine noise increased in the car. Doesn't take away from the Pros, but I did notice it.
Overall, feels like money well spent.
