So I'm looking for some resources on the STi's. I would like to find the manufacturers for the following types of Parts:

Suspension:
Tuning:
CAI:
Exhaust:
Boost Controllers:
BOV:
Turbo:
How to manuals and such:

Any others you guys can think of, as I stated my my "newbie" thread, I don't know a hell of alot about the subaru's and I want to learn.

The car will see only quality parts, and I will be doing the work myself with the girfriend.

Good retailers would be nice to, price is important, but service is critical, it doesn't matter if I save 10% on a part if I'm going to get screwed over.

Thanks for the input guys. Hopefully someday I will be knowledgeable enough to answer these types of questions.

Search around, there is a lot of information here. The User Reviews section has a lot of user input on parts. Also take a look in the different sections dedicated to each of the areas you specified.

Cobb and Perrin have a good US Subaru base. Most of them started their parts making business making parts for Subarus. They have basic bolt on things like exhaust, springs and even more advanced things like a Cobb's AccessPort for remapping the ECU and Perrin's GT35 rotated mount turbo kit.

Then, there are the big JDM companies like GReddy, Tein, HKS, Cusco, etcetera. All have great reputations.

What do you plan on using the car for? Drag? Autocross? Track? Rally? The hell of it? That'll help people point you down the right direction.
