Richcreek Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hey all, Im new to the site, Just stopping in to introduce myself. I'll start out with some car history. My last car was a 2007 VW GTI, DSG, 4-Door that was all blacked out. It had a Auto-Tech catback and that was it for mods. It was a fun car but it ate way to many sets of tires. Last june I rear-ended a chevy 2500 HD truck with it and it ended up totaled. http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n277/specializedrider/My%20Volkswagen%20GTI/Winter%202009/DSC_0135.jpg http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n277/specializedrider/My%20Volkswagen%20GTI/DSC_0074.jpg My next car which I bought was a 2009 Subaru WRX 5-Door hatch, in Dark Gray Metallic. Its what I currently drive now. All the mods on it now are RallyArmour mud flaps, and some rally lights. This weekend I am putting on a catless invidia 3" downpipe and reflashing it to stage 2 with a Torqued Performance map. http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n277/specializedrider/DSC_0064-1.jpg This spring I plan on a set of 18" rims with RE-11's, coilovers, sways and endlinks, a new TMIC, Catback, intake, and a protune. Oh and some whiteline rear dif inserts. Well thats about it! Matt 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh8sti Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 that motor will blow up when you go stage 2. Dont say i didnt tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richcreek Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 that motor will blow up when you go stage 2. Dont say i didnt tell you. Sti's are the only ones I believe that had the cracking piston issue. And My build date is after the 8/08 period in which they had the bad rod bearings. But thanks for voicing your concern. Also, if it does blow up I'll just swap the stock downpipe back on and swap back to the stock map and take it in to get it fixed. ~Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richcreek Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I have a Blitz SUS intake for that car that I will let go for cheaaaaap. For the 2009? Hit me up with a price. I'll atleast consider it. Do you rally/ off-road the wrx? I have been known to have some back-road-fun in it. Hence the mudflaps [the paint sucks though and is still all chipped up...] and I have 4 rally-lights on a custom made bar that I run during the winter/when I feel like it. I want to try rally-x this summer. ~Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleguy Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Welcome to the site, talk to Thorne if you want some good tuning advice. Also, don't be scared of Stg. II, you just have to have someone who knows how to tune a Subaru properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richcreek Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Thanks everyone! You all seem like quite a friendly bunch. And I plan on taking my car to Thorne this spring, I have another couple mods coming for around then and dont want to waste money on a protune, so I'll run my map for a bit, then in a few months go pro-tune. ~Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
