Default JDM Twin scroll owners please come in....

i have just brought a STI JDM Twin scroll...

its standard apart from a cat back exhaust

1st impression was bloody quick compare to my 310bhp 04wrx

the twin scroll turbo spools up very quick.. but is it normal to hear the turbo spooling up?? as it seems louder than all the subarus i had ???

also what sort of MPG you get? i got 220miles a tank... which is alot lower than what my wrx did..?? is this normal?

thanks
kev

smaller tank though no?

not sure about the sounds! Id suggest its not fully standard if it feels a lot quicker than a 310 wrx...but to be honest its probably all in the way the powers delivered, i.e. smoother so it gives the illusion of it being faster if that makes any sense...

bring it up to hitchin and we can see
