Mobile Phone blocking in cars
Just read an article where a family are suing Apple because a collision was caused by a clown using Facetime which resulted in the death of a child. Some people are too infatuated with technology... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-38496174

Misfire and fault code woes....

08 impreza wrx hatch help required!!!!!!
I didn't think "too big" was in your vocab Tidgy... considering you have an intercooler the size of a surfboard!

Changing the plugs isn't difficult... just a bit of a faff, need to remove the airbox on the drivers side and the washer bottle on the passenger side... once that's done they are easy enough to access

Stainless steel exhaust
If it's just a cat back it's dead easy to do yourself, only a few bolts. No clamps or cutting required. Just make sure to use new gaskets, you will need a cone gasket to go between the last cat and the centre section, genuine ones can be had from import car parts for not a lot of money

DEFI gauge colour change?
Haha! It could just be a coloured bulb or some coloured paper which should be easy enough to change, but can totally understand if you don't want to open them :D

Unbelievable 😩

Depends on how big you go. @aucky has a WRX hatch with a bigger turbo, front mount intercooler and I'm assuming bigger injectors(?) and he's running 320bhp no problem. Obviously more power and boost etc you run, more than likely increasing the risk of something breaking internally. It really seems to be your luck with the 2.5 block... you may have no issues with it at all.

Quantum remap
Seem to have generally good feedback... would maybe ask if they do/have done a lot of subarus https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/quantumtuning.co.uk http://www.quantumtuning.co.uk/

They stick it on a rolling road and reprogram the ECU while keeping an eye on AFR, boost, timing etc to get the best performance that your car can handle safely

Wheel and bodywork refurbishment
Ah ok... you're one of the few people who use them! Could always buy the fog lamp covers, then swap them back during the winter/foggy months? They simply clip in so only takes a minute to change

Anyone know where and what they are called?
No problem!
-
Wheel and bodywork refurbishment
Front fog lamps are generally redundant anyway... I use mine maybe once or twice a year? Even then they don't make a great deal of difference!

Changing oil but what to go for....
I personally use Millers 10w 40... quite a popular choice and very good quality.
