Shouldn't you get it tuned instead? I know there's rumour that adding the badge will add about 20kw but I think that might be false. :D

Since the MY07 STi badges came in two pieces, I used the 'tuned by' part for my Zero/Sports engine cover (complimented by a chrome STi badge from JapanParts)

Were you needing both parts, James? Unfortunately I don't have any more 'tuned by' badges, but have a few spare STi badges in pink (x2), red (x1), charcoal (x2), and chrome (x1)

so thats an extra 120kw in total? or is it less if you don't have the 'tuned by' :D

Sorry. All gains are halved without the 'tuned by' component.

haha... was after the STi and tuned by part.. I wanted to try it on the spec B front grille.. I had a GT badge on the front of my last one and I think it needs something, a bit like the S402 badge to break it up. Ive seen the STi badge on a few grille but I didnt like it on its own.

I will keep looking...

cheers

I think just the STi badge keeps it nice and simple. You don't want to clutter up the grille too much with long extensive wording (ie- Having the entire 'Subaru Liberty GT-B Tuned By STi' embedded in the grille).

i would just have the STI badge then.... it has a better power-to-letter ratio. weight saving as well

Yeah James,

I was going to ask you what it felt like to have Trieu's nuts in your hands...but I thought that was inappropriate.

Bring those nuts home :mrgreen:
