Have you seen this!
YouTube - Nuevo Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2008 Institucional Prensa
Its the promo video rushes for the 08 STI. Still pictures there also take while filming for the Euro brochure.
Wish I could find empty roads like that

I feel soo at home 
How about we ask the folks at Powerstation if they'd play host to us for a day?
That way we could try and wangle a group buy on the ARB kit as well as generating a great photo op.
They will probably even pick up the odd extra penny as we all seem to be scheming on some mods or two!
(I'm thinking front splitter, some tasty 18s in Antrhacite, the suspension upgrade............................)

in that case.....
It would be cool if we could get 5 cars looking for the same kit on the same day and maybe drive 5-10% discount or something?
Let me know if you want me to try my faded Jedi Mindtricks on the folks at Litchfiled

just to say anyone fitting a CAI to their STi would really need it mapping straight away as it leans the mixture out so much. I was told to drive off boost until mapped.

Speaking to Ian he reckons with a cold air induction kit and a remap it should make around 355bhp which I think is a healthy improvement.
I worried about turning the wick up too much as I have already had a new bottom end after piston number 3 got a little hot and melted the rings.

Iain runs I believe on his stage 2 about 1.25bar peak boost, mine is 1.5 and I think others are running 1.6bar. The horror stories about rings going are to do with detination and a bad map from Subaru which a reflash sorts or even better a custom remap.
