Turbo back and a tune and he will love it even more. Stay away from an intake until he is above ~300whp. What year? If it is an 06 or newer WRX and has the bright blue injectors he can throw on a 20G and he will have enough injector to suport the the turbo. Just be careful of the 5spd they can't take nearly the abuse of a 2wd car, the AWD just has too much grip and you can strip the teeth off off first and second easily.

I think he has an 06 (I've only seen it once) but he's trying to decide what to do with it. I'll have to let him know. The GT looks good btw. Repairing that or finding a new bumper should be easy.

This is my first "muscle" car and I fell in love with it when I saw it. So far I have one question. Where is the hook up for the Aux in on the radio? My car did not come with a manual or I would look in there for the answer.
Hi Mad Scientist.
I'm also from MA and own a torch red 05 GT vert 5-speed. My winter unit is a 2004 Forester XT.

Or local Ford dealer can also switch out the radio for the 07+ version.

Thanks for the link.

Want a tune for the FXT. I have the tatrix cable and romraider, I have ~6 years of experience tuning subarus. I think I even have a Stage 1 tune all setup for thr FXT, I will have to check when I get to work.

It has been hard to cruise with the RPMs ~1100. Not used to the torque yet.

Torque you say? Switch out the stock 3.55's for 4.10's.
