wotcha and welcome - that is a clean looking bay there. to get the picture to show in your post use the photobucket link labelled 'IMG' - makes it easier for us lazy buggers :D

we have a bug eye wagon with 16 engine in the for sale..? http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/8836-subaru-impreza-16-ts-4wd/

the seals can give over time - going harder, bit of vibration etc The oil just sitting on them wouldnt cause them to leak though. Do you know if they have ever been changed?

wotcha and welcome - is it a standard car or are there any mods?

any chance of the pistonheads link for us lazy buggers ;) good luck with the sale

Thought you would have photoshopped the flower beds while you were at it :lol: on a serious note Im with Stanton, that is better than I could achive, I have only managed to tidy up a few low res jpgs so far - need a lot more practice

looks in great nick - good luck with the sale

TLag will probably be able to add some detail but removing the cat will provide less resistance to the exhaust flow out of the pipe so the turbo should spin up quicker. With that said you may not notice any difference doing that in isolation as having an improved air flow away from the engine helps when you improve the air flow in as well - things like induction kit / high flow filter. What would you like to achieve with your motor that means considering the removal of the cat?

Wotcha and welcome - any chance of some photos - they tend to help market the car better - good luck with the sale

Wotcha and welcome - as Stanton said a map for the new turbo would probably be the first step - you could also get it set to run mafless also did you skim the heads before reassembly as they may have warped through excessive heat when your engine let go - really strange you are repeatedly bending blades on the turbo?

if it was more serious than as gambit suggested it would produce more smoke more often. All the mods you have done sound spot on - I would just keep it in tyres and decent brake pads. Options for the future could be uprated calipers and discs and looking at chassis mods, suspension, anti roll bars etc

Wotcha and welcome!! :)

Wotcha and welcome

fingers crossed for you chum

Wotcha and welcome :)

Wotcha and welcome - quite the contrast in vehicles - I would be interested in your feedback in the long term as a comparision

Wotcha and welcome!!

Wotcha and welcome - the wrx will be setup to handle the extra power so as long as you compensate with brakes and chassis improvements to cope you will be fine

Wotcha and welcome - we have a fair number of Fozzy owners on here - plenty of mods done as well so some food for thought ;)

Wotcha and welcome!!
