Resonator successfully removed.
Bit different on a 05 wrx as to the 00 sti instructions from fobz, like the guard under the wheel goes all the way around the wheel arch. You don't even need to remove it, just unclip from the front and get round. The only thing that got me is that the resonator has an extra bolt underneath the guard as opposed to two in the engine bay. Easy work around though.

I was going to hack the resonator too but decided to keep it intact incase I get a canary and need to put in back on.

Walbro fitted, verso turned. Chuffed. Thanks for all your help guys.
The fellas at AllStar Garage did a great job too.

Now if you don't mind, I need some alone time with my car.....

What numbers you Pull dude?

Sean and Nick always work there Magic.

218.7hp (163kw) at the wheels and 321nm of torque.
So that's only with the walbro pump, butler TBE and the verso tune (and the missing resonator).
I'm really happy as I was only expecting about 140-150kw at the wheels.
