I test drove a 07 but that is about it. From my brief experience the 07s power felt more intense but at a little higher RPM. I didn’t get to take the 07 to the hills though.

Gotcha, I hear the new 08s are much more user friendly. I'm nearing kidney failure going into my 3rd year with my STi.

I definitely want to do mods just not sure which route yet. I will let other people play around first. I just got the widows tinted and I want new wheels, but as for ECU and Exhaust I’m not sure yet.
