What do you need to know- i've got a fair idea about most options - either call me or post what you want.

David would the STI8 g/b and diff give me anymore torque on my02 wrx, currently running 338 bhp + 295 torque.

It wouldnt give you any more torque but it can handle more torque than the 5 speed gearbox thats already in there.
Just to show off 331lbs of torque with just a panel filter, the car is designed to take this in its stride (JDM MY03 STi).

Agreed!!, however the torque characteristics would change because of the extra gear. Even so, you'd need to be seriously keen to want the expense of fitting a 6 speed for that reason alone.
