Default My Forester 2.5 XTen

Ive had to sell my imprezas to get a more family focused sensible car so i bought a Forester with the plan of keeping it pretty standard and to use it as a tow car.
The day after i bought it home i had a new set of wheels on it then set about making it more fun but still sensible..ish
I couldn't lower it anymore as i need it to be a certain height for towing but it is still lowered about 3" compared to standard.
Now running 328bhp and 378lbs with a VF41,v10 sti intercooler,full decat,full new sti inverted shock setup,Whiteline bars,links,ALK ,WRX PRO calipers,and a selection of wheels(some more tasteful than others)
I know its not the most powerful or nicest looking thing but at present it does what i need and still gives me a giggle...plus its not an impreza so i get no attention (which is good and bad )
Next up is maybe another map and a 3 port boost solenoid and maybe a vf48.
Until then ill sit back in my leather clad flying armchair
