Default Rexonrex '15 Mystery WRX

So I bought a modified '15 WRX on June 10, 2019. I knew it had a few mods, as I noticed the Front Mount Intercooler, Accessport, Exhaust, Rims, coils. The car looked beautiful and my thought process was I was going to do these mods anyway. The dealer knew nothing about the car (besides the typical BS they tell you to sell you the car), so they were useless in identifying anything other mods. Moving forward I figured I was buying a bolt ons car for the most part so I took the gamble and bought the car.





Fast forward 2 weeks. By this time I had realized the car had a water/meth injection kit installed and I was running low on boost juice. I finally located and got the time to take it to a local tuner to see what's up and purchase some juice. I had him give it a once over to get a little more info on the car and that is when I was told I had gotten a little more than I asked for.

I'm not new to modifying cars as I previously had a 2010 Nissan 370z with some minor bolt ons, and did my best with my v6 Mustang in High School. But I am very new and noob to Subaru's and turbo'd cars in general.




But I was told that this car has been built. He wasn't sure what it has done to it in the motor, but he said this could be one bad ass car, or it could be a broken money pit. Long story short, I was at first angry with my decision to buy this car, but then decided that it's the type of car I have always wanted and I'm going to keep it and go along this ride. So I decided to make this thread and share my story as it unfolds in finding out what the heck this frankenstein actually has done to it.

On the access port it is running a tune labeled "Peter_Kelly 500whp 29psi" I know it isn't running 29psi as of right now it's about 21psi. It has a "big ass turbo" per the tuner. I don't have a lot of time for the car at the moment as summers are very busy for me. It is a daily driver and the tuner warned me to take it easy until I can drop it off for a full overview and possible tune. As of right now that's where I am. Hopefully I can keep up with this thread and end up with nice enjoyable project.... that's mostly done already

Keep us posted. I am very curious about this. You probably got this car for A LOT LESS than someone spent on it.

I'm pretty positive that's my car. Same shifter knob. And has the iAG stage 3 engine block he mentioned in one of the videos.
