Morning Guys

Only my 2nd thread as im a newbie, after about a month of searching landed my first impreza

a 2003 WRX Sti with PPP in blue with FSH cambelt, clutch and a recent service, so all very happy

until yesterday, 2nd week of ownership and iv noticed a slight blow from the exhaust or one of the gaskets, cant be certain where, I know the previous owner had the headers changed but not positive that's the root of the problem

long story short I know nothing about Subaru mechanicals so want to take it to a specialist, I live on the borders of Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire

so anywhere near Northampton/Milton Keynes im willing to travel to have it looked at and sorted, just wanted some recommendations off people?

really annoying as the car is perfect apart from this blow which is starting to get louder, im hoping its just a gasket, but guess we'll see

Is his place open on weekends by any chance? I work pretty long hours during the week and every other weekend is the only free time I get (the scoob is a weekend toy you see) wondering if I could drop it and leave it with him for a week

Give him a call mate and I'm sure you'll be able to sort something out.

Zen do everything from basic mapping to race car prep.
Give Paul or Richard a shout and talk over what you need.
