Welcome and good choice,sir.

Any questions, just ask. You'll usually get plenty of answers!

You'll need to check whether you've just got a Prodrive exhaust or the full Prodrive pack (which would be nice!)

Welcome mate!!
I sold my Accord type R for an STI I was sorry to see it go:cry:
But now loving the turbo rush:notworthy
I would of thought that an Accord type R would be able to give a standard WRX a good run for its money mine was 215 BHP and quite fast if you canned the nuts out it!!!!

thanks for all the replies :thumb:
yes the type R would prob be up there with a standard wrx and is very under rated, but after going out in my mates focus st the other day i just had to go back to turbo power and needed a 4 door car cause of my kids, so the impreza was purchased. :)
