Interesting note:
I went with the Forester rear wiper control module because it has an 'intermittent' option, unlike the Legacies and Imprezas which only have 'on' or 'off'.
The dynograph was on Shell 91. I never intend to put race gas or an injection system on, so I only had it dyno-tuned for what is available anywhere, anytime.
New Pics!
