The RCE's so far are great, It has only been a day though. They have to settle in and then when I get my alignment I will give me a better idea of what they feel like. I didn't bother with the "hardened" strut mounts after seeing how cheap they looked compared to the OEM ones when installing them on my friends STi.

^^^ Yeah, I think I'm gonna skip the hardened mounts as well.. The guys at RCE recommended them for the front so I was considering. Please give more reviews after alignment an a few weeks to get a feel for them...

Arggggg black wheels!! You can't see the details anymore! It's just 4 black holes now (Sorry bud, personal pet peeve )

Aside from that, your STI looks great. Very clean, and nice pics

I hear ya! The pics don't do them justice. They are really noticeable when you see them in person. I had them painted OBP and they look GRRRREAT! I didn't want that flat black look.

Well I took some night shots. I haven't taken any in a long time because my tripod is broken...I tried my best . The CF Hood is back on and the car is more balanced. The car in the background is my little bro's Civic Si...my commuter while I was waiting for my rims to be finished

looking good man.

I think the stock wing would set it off though.

Either way

Default Re: Chlnorslpn?'s WRB 06 STi...Re-tune @XXtuning...XXChris FTW!

Well I was re-tuned today after adding the FMIC and SPT Intake. My clutch started slipping on the dyno, which restricted me from making a little more power, but I'm happy with the results . On one pull and made 307whp/366wtq...wish I could have kept it there . The second to last pull made 306whp/360wtq, but I left with 306whp/357wtq @ 20 psi with clutch slip. THANK YOU CHRIS!! For those who say the FMIC adds a lot of lag to the stock turbo, my SSAC sure didn't. The EWG did hold boost 800rpm more than the IWG, Take a look....oh yeah my scanner broke....





Oh and the lower numbers are my numbers off just road tuning....it ended up running rich and made less power. I'm glad I got a re-tune!!! XXChris FTW!!
