I believe they crossed their fingers AND toes when they built the later ones

They are definitely running a tweaked map and i suspect other changes may be in place.

Very hush hush though as Subaru won't want to be meeting there obligations to look after earlier cars.

They certainly know how to lose their customers.

Guessed the map for sure, just wondering if any of the scooby mechanics or tuners out there have openned up a 2011 engine and noticed anything different mechanically, you would guess they have had to do something? Sure we will find out eventually and guess it will leave them wide open for some legal action on the 2008s.
