Cool introduction!

VF39 will fit, intercooler will need to be upgraded. Not 100% sure on ancillaries like injectors or fuel pump.

Sorry,i know it's not a cool intro but i needed an answer,i'm the 3rd owner of my MY06 Wrx and i still can't get many answers to what has been don to it before i got it,having never owned one before i have loads of questions.It has a high flow cat an a 3"exhaust,not sure what else has been done or how it should go but it seems to be able to spin all 4 wheels in 3rd without much effort.

Hi,i know very little about the car,trying to find out more,i know it's due to have the plugs changed but as for the ecu not sure,i'm not looking forward to changing the plugs .....

The cat's usually on the Mid & down pipes I thought, so if they've replaced the cat its likely they've put a full TBE on? Which would mean it's been tuned already?

And if you're spinning all 4 wheels in third, I very much doubt you've got the stock turbo...

First thing to do ASAP is find out if the ecu is tuned for the exhaust, the 06 wrx have problems with untuned engines that have exhaust and/or intakes on them, if driven for too long or driven hard untuned the engine can melt
