New soobie owner intro

Hi to all,

I just purchased a 06 WRX Wagon limited WRB and its my first Subaru and first turbo. I love it, its awsome. The break in period is killing me though, even bone stock its like a freak on a leash. I've had projects in the past mostly honda/acura but I love that stock power and potential of the WRX. I've wanted one since the WRX came to the U.S. but it just wasn't in the cards until now. Thanks for the info that I have learned thus far from all your contributions to the site, and thanks in advance for future help. If anyone wants to check it out here is a link to my last project vehicle its the only one I've been able to work on since moving my family to Hawaii back in Nov 03. I will try to post pics of my wagon soon.
Thanks
Peace
Jay

Welcome to i-Club, Jay.

I think that you waited until the right time to get a WRX with your '06 wagon. The new-for-WRX 2.5 turbo has more driveability than its predecessors and the wagon always has great practical value for everyday transportation and hauling, of course.

You might also want to check out your Hawaii regional forum here on i-Club.
