Power is unknown as I haven't had it on dynod but at current boost it would be around the 320 bhp and the plate hasn't been transferred yet, I'm waiting for a deposit before I do this as won't take plate off if it doesn't sell

Okay I’ll bite…
Specific details of history – who has done the work, when, what work was done, which brand of fluids and other service parts were used
How many owners? How long you have owned?
Imported when?
Reasons for selling?
Brand of FMIC?
Who has done the mapping?
37k miles or kms or mix of both?
Etc.
I don’t mean to be rude as you’re most likely a genuine and knowledgeable seller (albeit inexperienced when it comes to advertising), but the advert comes across as either slightly clueless or lazy or both, and for my 14k I would ideally like to buy from something who knows what they’ve got and can give me the confidence that it’s been looked after well.
You also need patience – this is a specialist car with a very small pool of potential buyers. The right buyer will come along, but you may need to wait.

I see your point mate but if I was a buyer looking for a car like this I would pick up the phone and talk, maybe I'm old fashioned, think I'm best maybe trying auto trader

Quite shocked it hasn't been snapped up already, as white JDM STi usually people are queuing up at the door to buy these!!!
My mate sold his JDM hawk STi he didnt even have to advertise the car, it sold with just word of mouth, and then the next owner put it for sale not long after and it sold a day later with a advert on here.

**** me.. short and to the point. I always thought people went with this set up for big power otherwise whats the point?
Im aware it will reduce intake temps and make it sound different, but you dont often see it on a standard ish powered car?

A front mount on a JDM twinscroll is not a great idea, because it reduces spool , same as using a 3" exhaust, but people still do it..the standard IC is fine for in excess of 400bhp, but lots of folk just fit one anyone due to internet folk law, so it dosent mean it has been running 'bigger' power i,e a different turbo just because it has bolt on accessories
