Get a decat up-pipe and sports downpipe. It'll throw the odd cat efficiency cel when cruising on motorways etc until it's mapped, especially when the weather is cold. Also a little risky giving the car the beans before a map.

Car looks good but needs a few exterior mods , I've got the same model and colour and mine was in similar shade as yours in now . A few tweaks and a couple of months later it looks like this .

Looks decent! That's pretty much what I'm aiming for! However nothing is going to happen overnight! You done any engine modifications?

Nah no engine mods , that's not my thing , the car IMHO is bulletproof in standard form and very powerful , it's my only car so it needs to be ultra reliable

Agree with that statement. The 2.0L lump in the Newage WRX is probably the most reliable Impreza engine they ever produced! If looked after.

All the moore reason to tune imo. Decat and remap alone will see 270+ bhp with zero reliabilty problems if done right and looked after. Will transform the car
