Haha my bad. I used imgur.com, they turned out fine over on subyclub. I'll see if I can fix them up.

After having the car for a bit over a month now, I have come to agree with alot of other owners in that the MacIntosh system is quite sufficiant, its just lacking bass, so I've just ordered an MB Quart RPL204 8" Sub. I've read that alot of owners have opted for the Polk or Kicker sub with great results but I thought for the price of the MB Quart, it would be worth a shot and maybe open up another option to other owners

Put 'l' on the end of the name of the image, before the .jpg or .PNG. This will be a resized picture perfectly sized for forum use. You can also use s and m (small medium large). Small is great for profile pics.

Keep us posted on the sub, I am interested in a small upgrade.

Thanks for the tip. The Sub is an 8" Slim sub so hopefully it fits without too much hassle

Sub has arrived and a quick test fit has determined that a spacer is needed and possibly a bit of custom work to the existing hole so the terminals dont foul on the metal. I plugged the MB Quart in to test if it powers and it already sounds 10x better than the stock sub and it wasn't even mounted.

Update:

MB Quart Sub is in and sounds mint. A bit if work needed but well worth it.

Purchased a Cobb 3-port BCS last week in preparation for when Matt tunes the car early next year. Still waiting to hear back on dates from him though.

Looks and feels like a high quality bit of gear

Update:
Had the 3-port installed and the wagon tuned sunday afternoon by Matt. Absolutely cheering with the results, the only downfall is, I'm already used to the extra power and I'm wanting more.

I'm weighing up what to do next, silicon intake, after MAF and Throttle body hose or pitch stop mount (recommendations?) And shifter bushings

pitch stop mount is super easy to do, and gives you good immediate feedback, but you might as well do the hoses at the same time.

I would suggest, hoses, oil catch can, and pitch stop mount and make a good session of it.

Do the TB STI's have the Group N Mount standard? Im weighing up between that or the Agency Power item.
