Default It May Have Been A While

But I expect to pick up my second Subaru this Sunday

Due to the size of my Pitcrew I have decided to opt for a Forester S Turbo

Anyone who knows anything about what mods can be done to enhance the performance please let me know

Cornelius, I think a flamer kit needs to be put on order as I read there's a waiting list for fitting

Can't wait to get back on board

Thanks Guys I've really missed not being part of the ESC. I've already started a list of mods, much to Mrs Supercues' displeasure lol

Tiny dont worry I'll be dropping a cheque off to Phil in the not too distant future.

Now I just need to source an STi Intercooler, Sti Injectors, AP Brake upgrade (mainly to give Kidney peace of mind on Track days ), Braided hoses, remap, panel filter, Sti Steering wheel, Haywood scott zorst etc etc


Have i missed anything??

Driving back from working in Brighton on friday, and found myself backing up the traffic for a solo blast through the Dartford tunnel.

God I need to grow up
