To get more power and economy by tuning out factory richness in place for tolerances? ie. every car off the production line is different, so the factory tune is rich/safe to account for this.

EDIT: wait, was your tune a custom/dyno jobbie?

Back on Track..

After driving the Chum Bucket today - I have decided that my original plans for a 6 Speed are indeed good ones!

So - After the body touchups, and my Work Trip, itll be 6 Speed STi Gearbox with Whiteline Products all round, 18 inch wheels, and some real rubber.

Had massive grip problems today on the track - As much as I want the official V6 STi Wheels - I think I need to go something a bit more modern to get the best out of the car.

Also will be giving the suspension an overhaul.

But yea the 6 speeds are amazing compared to the stock wrx 5. Feels like it has a short shifter in comparison.

I've got 18's on my GC8, but if I did it again I would get 17's. Much better range of tyres, much more comfort driving etc etc etc.

Or if you want grip for the track grab some 16's with R-comps and leave the bling wheels for the daily stuff.
