I would get a dump pipe, for the stealth back system. Performance, lots of low rpm torque and a great growl when you put your foot down

So I'm gonna go with a Hi Tech dump pipe Fitted for $880 and I just chucked my K&N Filter in this arvo (installed it in the car park for the drive home haha).

Then KiDo Tune in a couple weeks :) :)

Any other suggestions?

Anyone else had Hi Tech exhaust mods done?

Rear swaybar ;) http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_det ... ber=BSR39Z

I asked a few of my other Subaru customers, few of them are running the hiTech dump pipes and they are really good quality, Lambros does excellent work and best of all, is Australian made.

Rear sway or up rated lower control arm bushes, or wait for it, both?
Good, it is a agreed, lower control arm bushes and a whiteline rear sway bar. Who makes the best endlinks? Those AVO ones? Those 3 items would be a grand well spent.
Kinda flush. Fitment is something. ADM as F*ck.

LOL ok sounds good, what about all of it plus lowered springs, rims and tyres? Im guessing a previous owner of this thing was older because they've been gutter grinding the stock rims haha

Rear swaybar stops the rear end swinging around like a rappers girlfriend's arse.

Stock endlinks are good, but Kartboy makes great aftermarket ones!

I wouldn't be driving it too hard without a tune or your most likely to get a CEL.

Dont buy whiteline gear from their website... its MASSIVELY overpriced..

Find someone at a local suspension shop, get on their good side and get them to order at cost/trade..

i've ordered a heap of whiteline gear and have saved over $300 over retail...

Also, if you are gonna get the rear sway, buy endlinks and mounts at the same time... the stock ones (mounts) are poxy
STI lip, Whiteline suspension goodies, KIDO tune.. more to come..

It's not hard to get a substantial discount off Whiteline stuff direct from them. Saying you're a member of an appropriate forum would be a good way to start... :)
