s6jambo Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I have a 2.0 Impreza RX non turbo. What mods would you recommend to spice her up
Jay762 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Looking into this myself - i would suggest a strut brace to stop front end movement possibly a remap for most efficiency and a high flow exhaust - much as I know so far bu I have auto so slightly different challenges 1
martyc Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Handling mods and maybe an exhaust to make a nice sound. Without a turbo performance engine mods would be limited in effectiveness Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk 2
Jimmymac101 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 looking good mate, i also have an 08 non turbo hatch.... mines a STI rep though :) id love to know if a remap could help these out and there's seems to be an acceleration pause ( foot down ... nothing ... nothing ...boom your off ) not sure if its just mine though James 1
Jay762 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 its not just yours mine is like that also - will keep you all posted as to when funds allow progress - have found a rolling road local to me so just got to sort a day and an appropriate tuner / investigate this 'package' mentioned in the legacy thread 1

timmyjk7 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 welcome to the club! great to see another hatch owner. I would say get a nice set of wheels, BC coilovers to get a good ride height and perhaps an upgraded panel filter and exhaust.
Xander Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Most of the cosmetic parts for WRX's / STI's will fit so easy to make it look a little more aggressive. Replacing the hood for a WRX one if you like the scoop. STI spoiler and spliter should do the job as well. Performance wise I am not sure what gains you will get but exhaust and induction cone would give you better sound and some power along with a remap. Just pulling a figure out of the air from modding N/A cars myself you would expect a 20-30hp gain from the 3 mods maybe more with a de-cat.
