FIRST POST,

selling my much loved 317bhp cossie soon, and after much deliberation have decided on a 5 door Impreza over a T5R i was looking at as i need a fast estate.

Will be buying a uk 5 door and need advice on what a grand or so will do for power outputs.Also general info needed. i know alot about cossies not alot else.

looking forward to mant happy posts.

Thanks

Rottie

Thumbs up

A decatted full stainless exhaust is your first option,then an induction kit or ITG panel filter.
Uprated spark plugs a possibility
There isnt much you can do to the engine without stripping it down.
Front mounted intercoolers and bigger turbos are an option but are big money
Exhaust and filter 1st
Get it set up on a rolling road to set up boost etc
Lots of people upgrade front brakes!!
Hope this helps
Darren

Buy an import instead. Instant BHP increase.
