Default S700BYY

Hi there how’s it going I just bought S700BYY a few days ago, the car is still going strong and can up really nice after a good polish. I have a couple of questions about the mapping and a few other bits - just if you have time.
Cheers

lol, there was a stage when I did want to buy it back but I went down the route of a completely standard widetrack instead, 1 previous owner and low mileage.

Hasnt that one just rolled up here? New to Subaru and turbo thread?

This is the problem though, I was going to look to sell mine this month but the prices in adverts are wild. I might end up looking at breaking mine instead.

Yeah, I hate the number of cars that the breakers get in and say 'fantastic runner', 'great condition' etc, it's no wonder you barely see any decent Impreza's on the road any more. Anything for a profit...

I am assuming if the rear's wider the front is too, but the front wing looks stock? ​​​​​​

Those front wings look like they have an extra step to them, a bit like the Escort Cosworth.
