Nothing too crazy so far, 18x9.5 Rota DPTs in hyper black, sitting on Epic springs. As far as engine goes, Cobb SF intake + box, Cobb catback (matching downpipe is in the garage waiting to be installed), Forge BPV, running a Torqued Performance Stage 1.

Nice and clean. I'm not a fan of the orangish fog lights though.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I'm currently running 255's all around and as far recall, my dealer hasn't said anything yet. As for the orangeish fogs, at first I was skeptical but they've grown on me, plus I have a set of covers in case I ever change my mind haha. Gonna try and do the downpipe and put on my R205 diffuser this weekend

You are supposed to uninstall your accessport which writes your stock ecu data back to the car. They flash over the stock ECU data with the new reflash. You remarry the accessport before you leave the lot. If you are open source the same process follows.



pvtdonuts: Nice car and choice in exterior mods.

I don't have accessport or open source because the car was tuned by somebody.

Just did the DP install today, what a pain in the ***. One of the bolts was cross threaded into the nut from the factory and I had a ball getting it off. Ended up having to dremel the nut and peel it off the bolt, thankfully there's a Subaru dealership across the street, so I picked up a new set there. Did a full reflash and loaded the Torqued Performance stage 2 map. Butt dyno feels a lot more power down low and it gets into the boost faster. Tried to install the Cobb heatsheild but it just wouldn't fit, kept hitting the actuator arm.

Next up is probably stainless brake lines and a master cylinder brace.
