The big surprise is that WRX STi owner is still not satisfied with his performance and the onyl guy to satisfy him (aahhhmmm) is one and only @Racerf1/f2 team.

They ordered this stuff for him and will soon start work on his car.

All I can show u are the boxes in the back seat of STi.... lets see when the work kicks off!

Awesome pics Salarzae.....love those defi gauges.

The Perrin FMIC should be a nice upgrade although the extra air required to fill up the larger intercooler and piping tends to increase lag. Is the engine 2.0 or 2.5 liters?

Looking forward to reading the full reviews.

@Kahmed
This is JDM spec limited production of which 555 were made only to commemorate the WRC rally Championship Scooby won. This particular is known as S203 V Limited.

As for the FMIC Yes it well give a bit more turbo lag but will make that up in the extra cooling it will provide. But again turbo is going to be upgraded to a GT35R twin scroll twin ballbearing Turbo which will eventually have more lag by only a few hundred revs more. So lag is not an issue here.

Sounds cool....if I was in Dubai i'd bring my Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT to get tuned.

@ Salarzae:

RESULTS...?

RedBull_ar (RedBull_ar) 2006-06-25 04:06:00 +0500 #38

the meter only shows 180KM/h?
i was expecting more

Ghuncha (Ghuncha) 2006-06-25 04:13:00 +0500 #39

cars in japan are limited at 180 even the famous NSX... but as this one is not JDM(LHD) so i am also a bit confused....
