Picked this up the other day, my third Impreza. I needed something for the dog and I like bugs so this fit the Bill.

Allegedly running 330bhp! I'm not sure about that but it goes ok.

Gave it a wash today;

Sti top mount, sti pink injectors, v34 turbo, usual exhaust rubbish, panel filter, fuel pump etc etc.

Like I said, it's very optimistic but it goes well and that's all I'm bothered about.

looks well - is that a standard backbox? I assume it's got a mad *** downpipe on it though?

The seller had my pants down to be honest and swapped that exhaust for standard. I'm in the process of buying all the decats etc to put it back to how it was. Luckily, it's pretty cheap to buy on the 2nd market.

might as well check the fuel pump as well to make sure its definitely still the upgraded one it should be for that much power.

Was the uppipe cat removed? You might be able to tell by looking at the pipe leading into the turbo - if not stick that on your todo list as well

was it opensource mapped or ecutek?

I'd have thought it might have made more than that but I suppose 300bhp isn't to be sniffed at.

Going up in value too!
