Throttle Response Question Please Help Anybody...
So i just put new spark plugs in my subie...i took it out for a drive and it feels like i'm getting a better response when accelerating...should this be expected?? and then the actual question...when i try to top out my car(i still haven't found the top end) when i shift in to fifth gear the car just stops accelerating...why is this? Is there any simple mods that could push more top end power?

Dude you only waited an hour, calm yourself... Yes picking up throttle responce is normal.
Chances are your 5th gear doesn't accelerate much on the top end because your running out of power and you are drag limited. Headers, exhaust, intake, tune. But those aren't gonna do much, maybe a few mph but thats it.
