The problem comes to the fact that they are inconsistent.. some of the injectors are okay, and others arent. These ones might be okay.

If I was owning the car, I'd change them.. but I don't own the car, so its just an opinion.
Interesting. I see your point about inconsistent maybe, as the same workshop told me to buy PE's for my evo build.. ha ha

I just wanna see the 700hp this thing is claimed to be able to make. NEW OWNER DOO IT!!!!!

Ha ha not the inconsistency I was talking about

Maybe the Evo's have a better time running with the PE's? They are notoriously difficult to tune on Subarus!

Same here.. 700HP or bust!

Can you start a driveway thread, with the cars current state of affairs? It sounds like a bloody good read, and a good purchase. And current pics please!

I did see this car on the road on a couple of cruises... just interested to see how it ended up now you are the owner.

Have to say I disagree with you there, the high wing is a trademark of an STI. It'd be the same as buying a pitbull and then dressing it up with a poodles outfit with pom poms on it's feet!!

good to see it in what appears to be capable hands
Thanks, I will certainly do my best!

I'm beginning to realise there are more similarities between a hot car and a hot chick than one would think eg. both are rewarding but usually very high maintenance, both attract a lot of attention although a lot of it is unwanted attention, both tend to perform better with higher priced modifications and both pretend to not like it when you treat them roughly but always seem much happier for it when you do
