You should have gone to Subaru Specialists MotorSports. If you need it, their number is: (916) 442-6409
I bet they can fix it for you...

I'm hoping for 240+whp but we'll see what Nate can get out of the car. It will be nice to have some power back in my car - I've been hating life since I sold my Cobb ECU on Sunday :|

I heard it was a tad higher then the rest.

Sadly, I'm still on the fence with what tuner to use

Do some searches using keywords: Gruppe-S, SHIV, VISHNU etc.
Oh and shoot ECUTEK an email asking for their advice.

ATM, I'm a bit biased towards Shiv because of my buddies success with his Stage 1+ Evo. Also from what I can gather, Egan has had some pretty good success with em. I just haven't had any personal friends who've been tuned by either Gruppe-S or Nate.. If Nate's a good local tuner, I'll prolly look more into it when I'm serious
I'm not that worried about it right now...Peace
