So I just got back from TopSpeed about 15 minutes ago and I can't help but still be excited. Doug did his magic and pulled 290whp(40whp gain) and 336wtq(70wtq gain) from my STi. I think all in all he did 8 runs from my base line pull to the final pull. Air to fuel ratio curve was literally flat, and so was my power curve. The car idles and runs much smoother and much more linear than it even did from the factory. Kudos go out to Doug and Trey for making this a truly great experience and for taking my STi exactly where I wanted it to be. Here is a plot of the 2nd run, which is the base line, and the 8th showing the difference in power and just how good Doug is at making the car run perfect.




And a shot of my car on the dyno while Doug does his thing.



This is something that I would highly recommend anyone have done. Doug knows exactly what he's doing and never for one moment was I worried about a single thing - I knew that if Doug was satisfied, I was satisfied. I have a lot of video that I have to get re-encoded so it's not absolutely huge like it is now, so a clip or 2 will be posted soonish. Once again, I will *always* have my tuning done at TopSpeed and will shove anyone I can their way.

Mod list is pretty conservative -

APS 65mm CAI
Helix Catted DP
HKS Carbon-Ti
Cusco Turbo Heatshield
StaticX VF39 Wrap

That's all as far as power is concerned, the rest is now in my sig.

Nice pictures, numbers and excellent exhaust choice.

The HKS Hi Power/Carbon Ti is awesome. Sounds so good and not annoying inside the car

Thanks for the comments fellas, goes to show that the Subaru community is much more mature and team oriented. I love the exhaust, period. Not too loud on the highway, but when you stomp on it, the thing just screams. The car sounds meaner now that the turbo is pushing 18psi and making more of a howling noise... glorious! I am in the process of editing some of my footage to get some videos up.

Here's a video I've been working on some. Be nice, this is the first attempt of mine at editing anything. I've got some road footage in the works also, but here's the first one for now; enjoy.

PS, had to re-encode it and lost some quality, my host doesn't have killer bandwidth so don't kill them please =)
