You are correct ... for the STI 10% reduction.

So, I am wondering if the Aftermarket kits will work with the Subaru kit?

The Kartboy worked just fine with the factory SS linkage in my '05. Unless there is something really different with the new linkage, I don't see why the 08 wouldn't work too.

The Kartboy short shifter works fine with the 08s.

the only thing I would worry about with the SPT kit is the pivot width. If someone has an SPT kit, and can measure the crosstube for the pivot I can say which bushing to use.

The COBB is beautiful! I just installed it tonight, not simple, but not too hard either, well worth the effort! I changed the bushing to poly too. It feels faster and it is REALLY a drivers car now!
