Ed has done three cars that i know of here in Fresno two of the bugeyes are just stupid fast, and the 06 is possibly the best daily tune i have seen. I just swapped to a vf43 today and hope to make the drive up there by march.

My car would not be the way it is today without EQ Tuning. I tip my hat to you guys and will continue to be a loyal customer as long as I have a Subaru. Thank you.

The Tune: Ed was able to extract some really good power out of my 2.0 liter bugeye. At 18.5 lbs we were able to put down a whopping 306whp/255wtq. I believe...the most Ed has ever made on a 2.0 liter wrx, VF-series turbo, and on 91 octane. Below is my plot...the power is much more linear now and the car pulls all the way to redline without running out of steam. The torque is also one of a kind (Flat almost all the way across to redline). Enjoy everyone.



Mod List:

2007 STi Turbo (VF43)
TMIC
Perrin Turbo Inlet
APS 65mm Intake
Perrin Equal Length Headers (Thermal/Wrapped)
Grimmspeed EWG Uppipe (Ceramic Thermal Coated)
Tial 38mm EWG
Titek Catted Downpipe
Borla Hush 3" Catback Exhaust
Cobb AP v2
Hallman Pro RX Manual Boost Controller
STi Pink Injector 565cc
Walbro Fuel Pump



Please feel free to comment! Thanks
thats good stuff!

lol hey bmxhotsauce,

umm did you want to take over my thread? you're most welcome to since you've posted in here more than me haha. =P. Congrats on the new power man. Ed does fantastic work. Did you find a STi 6 speed? How much? I want to get one for my bugeye as well...
