Yes Zex makes a kit for our cars. TRi Tuning had one for a while, but I think we sold it about 2 weeks ago.

I am using a NOS dry manifold kit #5122. The Nos technician said that is the kit for my car but I think for a 2.5RS it would be kit #5123. You'd have to call for details. As far as how big a shot, I wouldn't go above 50 for longevity but I've been running a 60 shot for a few months now. Everything seems to run great and my spark plugs always look good when I check them. If you are willing to take 'careful chances', I wouldn't go above a 70 shot. Just keep an eye on your air/fuel ratio, your EGT's (if you got these gauges) and keep an eye on your spark plugs from time to time.

Also, to get the full benefit of your kit, make sure you get a bottle warmer. The power delivery is like night and day.

BTW: I think Zex makes a kit specifically for the 2.5RS. I could've sworn I read a post about this not too long ago. Check their site out when you get a chance. The kit I use works on our cars but it's not specific for Subarus. Nos may have designed a kit specifically for our cars by now.
