Glad to hear its all sorted Bruce.

You're getting 3kw more than me and I'm running 19psi.

Mick really knows Subarus and I doubt if there is anyone else in Oz that can do what he does.

I'm also running the Delvac oil in my GT after Mick showed me what Synthetic oil was doing to my car.

Hopefully you're all trouble free from here.

Thanks Pete,

Yeah I'm glad I went ahead with it and didn't let the 2100km round trip stop me this time.

You're right about Mick being great to deal with.

I'm going to consult him on everything going forwards.

Thanks Alexei,

The exhaust note has gotten a bit deeper but the entire exhaust has become a lot more quiet. I going to be optimistic here and say it's completely legal in terms of noise. :)

In fact it's so quiet now I queried it and was advised it's all in the cam tuning. :wink:

You'd be the one person who I reckon will notice the significant difference.

You've strived to get that perfect combo of performance and noise.

Come over any time. I'm on leave at the moment. :)
