Default New Guy saying hi and need some help..!!

Impreza Guru's Hi....

I am having a mid life crisis and have bought a Impreza WRX. I really do like the cars as this is now my fourth.

2 things really, i think my dump valve is shagged its a forge one, idle is bad drives lumpy, its dumping air, even when just revving the car on a standstill?? i dont think its supposed to do this, a proper woosh as well??
Anyone had this?? has anyone got a standard 2001 WRX dump valve for sale in Kent.

secondly, has anyone fitted Tein S-tech springs, the car sits way to high, with a hole hand of arch showing, do these drop the car nice and still have a good ride.

Hope can help
lee.

Hi gents thanks for the reply's i want to put the standard one back, anyone in Kent got one to sell, not really into the PsssssT all the time.

I am right in saying it should not dump while just revving at a standstill??

Any action with the Tein??
