First tweaks about to take place, all very minor but I need your help...

MY WRX02 WR Blue

1 - Clear repeaters, best option and where to buy from?

2 - Dump Valve - worth it for the noise alone or should I get a zorst first?

3 - Zorst, not wanting anything too over the top but my standard double pea shooters suck, subtle upgrade with a tocuh more growl! Suggestions?

Boost - easily increased?

Tires - Someone here says Eagle F1's - whats good price for these? My Potenza's are in good shape at the back but the fronts are getting worn, ok to wack some F1's on the front for now? Then shift these to the back when I get 2x more later on? Also in the meantime do you guys think I should swap my fronts wheels to the back?? Any probs with this or good idea?

Your help would be apreciated + after all its the weekend so its all cruising from now on!

The HKS SSQV is the best dump valve i have heard and has excellent build quality.

When choosing an exhaust probably best to see what it sounds like on a scoob b4 buying it...maybe pop along to one of your local scoob meetings?

To increase boost you have a number of options inc, manual boost controller (like dawes), electronic boost controller, or ECU mapping.

Same car as you.

Standard wheels, like my Goodyear Eagle F1's, about £110 per corner fitted. I swap front to rear at 6000 mile intervals. Think this is as per handbook. Original tyres lasted 16000 miles, all very evenly worn.
