Good quality exhaust and tune here would be cheaper than purchasing the exhaust and ECU for that model anyway??

Smoke any crack this morning Mitch?

Clearly... however I was curious what changes are actually made to the exhaust to get that "note"..?

All that photo has done is convince me to steal Soksta's MY11 rims, paint them black and shove them on my car.

If it ever got to New Zealand, expect to pay quite a bit more than the current recommended retail price of $74,990 for the WRX STI spec R Sedan in this country.

Wouldn't be able to afford crack if he paid for an Sti in NZ.

If you installed a set of UEL headers (to keep the burble), TBE and get a decent flash tune, I'm sure you'll get the same Mitch. In relative terms its 280 / 290hp atw (~30 to 40hp more than what you have now).

The Spec R is around that price here too... only difference is South Pacific Paco's are worth less against the Yen So really we are paying more here in Australia.

The plan is still a nice Butler TBE and EcuTek tune by year 3 anyway.
