Installed a boost gauge today and found out its boosting to about 18-19psi then tapers down to 16psi, contacted the previous owner and told me that it's only ever had the Subaru base map tuned onto it nothing aftermarket. Seems to be coping fine will not be driving it hard till she gets a tune in a couple of months. Very keen to see what she makes

Found a slight leak on R/hd side rocker covers .. Haven't had the funds to spend a lot on her yet as I'm going away next month and having to save up for that.

also decided to take the STi wing off today! I think it looks much better!

I do love the look of the STi wing but i've always been a fan of wingless! After my holiday will be going for a GD STi wing instead!
They just seem to look and suit better than the old one.

ASG did my rocker cover gaskets for $700 all up from memory. Subaru wanted $800 per side.

GD STI wing would suit better than the other one IMO.

I'm tempted to try wingless and drop the coilovers.

Tidy bug though. I am biased..
