then when you need power switch to S#..... which i only use for over taking or when needed.
'I' mode seemed to make the car labour too much on pick up. I use it wen its in snow though.

It is now only boosting to .5 bar all the time almost as if it's only running actuator pressure.
also where would I get a leak down test done? Obviously a garage but can any do it or should I take It to subaru Newcastle?

nice photo
Koyo rad, 18-row oil cooler and 95 fuel map with 1.1 bar boost + methanol for S#/1.3bar trackday setup so far so good - 21kkm since engine rebuild with no noticeable oil consumption - I replaced OEM rods and pitstons with cosworth in advance :P The car performs fine under 40-45 oC. - if it is hotter than that, there is no point driving it because the OEM aircon is not efficient enough anyway (for those hot days I rent something with Gulf specs Aircon instead, like Kia Rio or Nissan Tida )

As I feared my car is goosed it had the dreaded ringland failure So engine getting forged.
I've decided not to take any risks so going with
Wossner pistons
Carrillo rods
ACL race bearings
14 head stud conversion
Pinned block
Bored and honed
Updated oil pump
New timing belt
2.0L oil pick up pipe
So should be solid as a rock after that. Then Andy F can map it to its full potential.
