So Long Fellas~

my buddy's got a wrx and tuning these babies with minor bolt ons yield decent gains. i'm not sure how the new sti's are designed but i know the previous models can have its ECU reflashed with an accessport and u can reflash it as many times as you please with different settings to tune your car on the fly. a wrx with just a catback exhaust and an accessport is good for 265hp which is quite a bump from 230hp for about $1200.
hopefully these will be easily tunable as well and if you're into that scene you'll have blast. AWD might be a little weird at first but when pulling out of corners on the gas with grip it's extremely rewarding but do realize that there IS a limit and if you should lose it, it's a bit more different to recover than a 2wheel drive vehicle.
i'm looking into buying a used evo or sti as a tuner car/weekend car as well but you've got an sti already. have fun man
