Hello, My name is Travis and I just signed up. Im new to the site but not Subies. Ive been working on them for 12 years at a dealer and have personally owned 5 of them. My latest is my first STI. I picked it up a couple weeks ago very clean and bone stock. Since then Ive added a Cobb AP, RSR GT2 catback, and deleted the intake silencer. I have changed the lip to a limited replica and swapped out all the front parking lights and rear plate lights with LEDs for a cleaner look. On the to do list is springs and take it to stage 2. Im very happy with this car and it feels so much stronger and tighter than my old VF-39 WRX.

Welcome!! Show us under the hood and inside too!

Welcome. You've had a busy couple of weeks with the car!

What are your plans for it. Are you done modding? Any track time?

 

[Spamby]

Very nice. Welcome to the team.

 

[Septic]

Love the clean look... ...and welcome to IGOTASTi!

 

[madmeridius]

Thanks for the welcome. The plans so far are Cobb Stage2 and suspension stuff. I plan on taking it to the dragstrip just to see what it has a time or two but I would like to get into some autocross with it. It will mainly just be a driver though with some tasteful mods. Ive even been thinking about seeing if someone wanted to trade me exhausts, I wanted something quieter like a Cobb or Perrin.

 

[IGOTASTi]

What exhaust is on it now?

 

[madmeridius]

Stock DP with the RS*R GT2 catback. Im still unsure about trading it though since its kinda rare.

Yes they are.

 

[madmeridius]

Ill probably wait untill I get a DP on it and see what it sounds like then to make a decision.

 

[HolyCrapItsFast]

Welcome and enjoy!

Always nice to have another tech head in the group! Please feel free to chime in on any threads, or post up if you have any questions as well.

 

[madmeridius]

Yeah I feel like Ive been at it forever, its been almost 12 years at the Subaru dealer and a couple more before that at a couple other small shops. I dont really tend to post a whole lot unless I know I can help though so I dont see me having a high post count

An update on the car though I have a new map to try out on it from my friends at TurboXS. I cant wait to try it out.

 

[Robert Viehweger]

It's all good. We don't judge by the size of your post count. Quality of quantity any day! hehe. How'd that tune work out for you?
