Hi folks, 2012 WRX owner newb to the forum

Hi folks,

I'm a new WRX owner, second Impreza I've owned after owning a Sport a number of years back. God only knows why I never got a WRX sooner - never had so much fun in a car that looks badass off the dealers lot.

4000 miles away from the 36000 warranty threshold, I'm obviously now casting a wishful eye at an AP. I have the SPT pipes on it and a Cobb short throw shifter but that's it so far. Hoping some of you can offer some sound advice regarding what I can do to power it up without making it much louder than it is right now - she growls a very nice tone as she stands with just the pipes.

Also, look into a tactrix cable and a torqued performance stage 1 tune. The best route is always a custom dyno tune though
