As others have said, a taller tire and a raised rev limiter should really hit the sweet spot for the manual. I'll just keep driving my silly automatic and hope for more courses that have long run-ups to the timing lights instead of starts that favor launching. |

They are doing some very cool things with map switching, launch control, etc. controlled via the cruise control stalk. which is part of the RaceRom stuff. It's supposed to be out pretty soon. |

I got the rest of my exhaust today from JSC Speed.
Perrin over pipe, and Perrin front pipe with hight flow cat. Easy to install(with a lift) nice quality parts. I saved 5.51 lbs total. It sounds awesome now. Before with just the Perrin cat-back non res you couldn't realy hear it in the car just outside. Now you can hear it inside(not to loud) and it sounds even better outside.

That Perrin exhaust sounds a bit buzzy, just a bit too high-frequency on the top end for me. Really, I just miss what my WRX sounded like.

I think it could just be the lack of a resonator as videos with it didn't sound that way I don't think.

I also wish I had a way to make it sound like a real Subaru, but I have resigned myself to that not happening since I don't want to replace the header. |

I wish I had video of it, but today at NCAC there was a wrb BRZ with custom exhaust. Straight pipe from the cat-back flange to a ~20in. Magnaflow. Then back to a split off to dual tip. One of the best "suby rumbles" that Ive heard. Not a single hint of buzziness at all.

Very cool. Let us know if the rev limiter behavior has changed and what they set it to along with the rest of your impressions of it.

It's not the tune which bricks the ECU is it? AFAIK, they haven't released a fix for that as of yet...

WRauto, it doesnt mean you cant run in STX for fun. I did that with my stock WRX when I first started. Tried to be mid pack as top pack was always hard due to those modded cars.
