Congrats. Enjoy it man, be sure to check the oil often, turbos like to burn it up. What's done to it again?

While this could be true, it shouldn't be true for a properly maintained vehicle. Sadly mine never ran long enough to find out. :(

 

EDIT: Oh yeah, congrats and all that stuff.

If I remember correctly he has a pretty heavily modded motor. A 2.5 block on 2.0 heads, the hybrid wrx/sti setup. He also needs to get either a 6 speed tranny swap or get RA or PPG gears because the stock tranny is made of glass

Sounds a bit like a OEM DSM tranny.

It's sucks to be him at the moment because he can't fully enjoy the car without having to worry about the tranny. Also don't know if it was tuned properly or if it's using a generic off the shelf map.

 

Diablo, come out here sometime soon and I can have the car tuned right just to be safe for $150. Dave Brown is a god when it comes to tuning subarus.

RA gears will hold up to around 350whp and cost about $1200-1600 new. PPG gears will hold god awful amounts of power but run between $3000-6000

 

A 6 speed swap is about $3500

oh wow, yeahs thats fairly expensive. The guy had it tuned by this comapny down in NC, they specialize in tuning subarus i guess, he gave me the card but i cant find it atm. I believe it has a GM boost controller on it currently.

Just to be safe, bring that beast out here, you don't want to be running lean or running on a shelf map that isn't made for your mods. Also your tranny will last if you drive conservatively. But it should be at the top of you to-do list

It's annoying to have someone come in all the time to talk crap. It just reminds me of those stupid domestic owners who joins up just to call us all ricers
