Hey guys, haven't been around much. After i got lambasted by frie...son of a bizatch, my buddy just called and his 'new' 09 wrx just lost all it's oil! Suby emergency, i'll check back on this later or tomorrow, here's my L. Copy pasted from Upstate NY Subaru Owner's Club Forum.
EDIT: The car is extremely fast, and boost comes on brutal from the VF39. Even with the swap, the curb weight has hovered right around 2800 pounds. There is no sign of the 'exploding tranny' even though it was take from a bugye, my guess is the lag, weight of the car, and Extra-S have all helped with that.

The car is amazing. It's good to be in a subaru again. Extra good because it's a turbocharged manual. More to come later. The car is extremely well set up, so I'm probably just going to do wheels/tire and a more comprehensive gauge suite. 6 months ago, I was considering getting a used 08 STI. I'm glad I didn't because this thing is amazing and was so much cheaper.
