I apologize in advance for my ignorance (car n00b)

alright so I did some more research on the EcuTek and ended up at dynocomp.com but I only saw ECU stuff for 06 WRX/STI...

will someone please help me find one for an 06 2.5i? seems like a good way to boost HP, right?

I don't think Accessport or EcuTek are for NA cars like the 2.5i and the older 2.5RS. I was referred to the Rallitek Perfect power. This is for NA cars too. I don't know how good they are because I don't have a piggyback unit (or need one yet). You might want to take a look at it. Its on their website. rallitek.com
