A good read on the inherent strengths and weaknesses of the Subaru EJ motor
Found this on the WRX Facebook group and I think it'd a good article for this new to WRX's and tuning and who want to increase their knowledge. (knowledge is power!) The Truth Behind The Subaru EJ-Series Engines - Tech-Knowledge - Import Tuner Magazine

A mate sent me a link to this today and had a few peeks at work. Looks like they're mostly referring to the 2.5, although I might not have gotten far enough into it yet.

If i had to boil it down, it really suggests that the "tuner" is key.

Here read on, around page 9 they claim the performance just jumped from a 10.54 at 142mph to the said 7 seconds and then its naisoc popcorn time: AMR 2008 Subaru STi - 1.9-2.0 60ft - 142.39mph - (unedited video) - NASIOC they have video and evidence of all their runs but the said 7.75. I read this import-tuner article a while back, I don't trust it, it's like a sales pitch for these respective houses, I trust my local tuner he's the pro here!
