vishnu or cobb...cobb puts their name on other companies stuff and sells it for more...still good stuff though and they know what they are doing...vishnu has nice people, service, and good products...i think vishnu wins

vishnu is not located in southern california. if you are going to go with vishnu stuff, you are going to want shiv to tune it since he is the best subaru tuner in the united states. he is located in pleasanton.
however shiv and his parts are quite pricey.

downshift is already getting the stage 2 so doesnt their ecu reflash come with it? already tuned... meaning they just have to hook the ecu to their comp or something? on a side note is shiv indian?

yes i think shiv is indian, vishnu is an indian term. but i could be wrong, anyways yes i know vishnu is not in south cali but they have official vishnu installation centers set up everywhere in the U.S.. if u looked carefully at the site you would have known. http://www.vishnutuning.com/welcome.htm
yes awns729m u are right, stage2 comes with ecu reflashed.
jus goto the site and check it out, its very organized. his parts arent to pricey compared to some other places. its expensive but worth it.
unless you know another reputable company that can make my WRX run 12's for that price and still have stability, drivability, and adaptability.

yeah vishnu is an indian term and shiv pathak(i think) sounds like an indian name...anyway you got cobb, prodrive, turboxs (i think) but vishnu is a better choice than all of those IMHO

I ran a 12.5 in Las Vegas, probably a 12.1 or 2 at sea level, with only 800 bucks. You have to know how to drive!!!!
1. stock intake
2. stock boost
3. stock down-pipe
4. $50 custom straight muffler (no muffler rear section, just a straight pipe with a tip, never once got pulled over)
5. $150 stock supra twin turbo fuel pump
6. $500 NX 75 wet shot
7. $100 boost gauge and manual boost controller to 16 lbs (at race track only because of part throttle full boost problem)
pros: never once had a problem, won't waste gas daily driving, no knock or ping, no cel, cheap speed, no ecu tuning needed, still passes smog, mean exhaust note
cons: 3 bucks a lbs, have to run 100 octane, you really have to know how to drive!!!!
