Will the 2017 car tax changes see the return of big dirty engined scoobs to the UK?
I never realised that thanks Alex. So there will be 2 different tax scales then looks like I will have to get a new mustang in 2017 ;)

Hopefully I'll only have to pay for one year at £485 then ill be onto the new rate. It's definitely a fairer pricing system. Why should the cheap to run cars that are on the road a lot more pay less. I think the new system is much better

uprated top mount intercooler. is it worth it?
Thanks Sam that's a good article. So its good to know there is gains to be had from an aftermarket top mount, it would have been even better if they had done dyno runs with a few of the intercooler. Also would still like to hear from anyone who as used the mishimoto ones before.

uprated top mount intercooler. is it worth it?
I've been looking at the mishimoto.co.uk top mount intercooler kits. Has anyone on here tried one and do you think it's worth shelling out £400 or is the job not worth doing unless I go for a front mount? I don't really want to do too much to the car that I can't easily put back to standard that's why the uprated top mount appealed to me.

Who says STi's don't do good MPG !!!

I'd say he's missed off some engine mods if he thinks he's got 370 bhp. But still the car looks lovely apart from the max power special spoiler so as long as everything is good mechanically you could end up with a very nice car
- New Subaru new to forum.

New apr bits just turned up
New seats sound good. What you going for? The shape of the front seats is a bit old fashioned now subaru should have done a recaro option :)

Custom exhaust or Off the shelf (bolt on)
Off the shelf from a reputable company I would say. Any decent manufacturer will have done dyno runs and made sure it has performance benefits as well as looks and more sound. A custom exhaust will probably just give more noise and there's more to making a good one than just making it bigger

Probably more chance of you getting that dog back than us getting a performance pack for the new sti then :(

The perrin intake doesn't require a tune and one of our members sparky is running one. Most of the kits that claim big power gains require a tune probably because there is a lot more air going in and as tidy said the ecu will only correct within a certain range. I've went for a k&n panel filter which probably has very little if any benefits but I do think I can hear the turbo a bit more since I put it in. I'm already at the point where if I was to go any further I would be throwing my warranty away, I'd love to add the milltek downpipe and sports cat and get it mapped to suite but it's a bit of a risk if there's any problems down the line.

I can't see how they could give warranty on that. The dealers don't approve the warranty claims, maybe they could lie and say that the car came back standard but then they would still have to send of the ecu info
