niiice. Hows the SPT exhaust? I really considered getting it, but the short shifter was already on the car.

I like it, but I do notice that the low end is lacking a bit, but there is a gain the high end. The slight growl is nice too. It's just enough, so it doesn't attract any attention. I have heard differently though from others, depending on other mods you may have.

The wagon's SPT system is much more quiet.

Dont even consider an intake. Used to run an AEM intake and it for sure made it run funny.

For exhaust, if I were to ever do it again...JDM for sure. Like HKS Kansai, Zero Sports or something sick like that. Although, very pricey.

Suspension... Springs suck, dont waste your money, coilovers only. Think about everything else later.

Boost Gauge... I run an Autometer and huh huh, thats all I have to say about that. Get a Defi or equivalent.

Just tryin to help ya out, I made all the bad, or cheap, part calls and have always been unhappy in the long run. Just waste all your money on the most expensive JDM part each time you think of upgrading somethin.

Thanks for the advice ScoobySon. I'm new to the WRX scene and I'm learning something everyday. Your inputs are very valuable. Thanks again !
