Michael Schumacher critical
The missus is a big fan and he generated some amazing results in cars that should not have been that high up the grid so thoughts go out to him and his family at least he was wearing a helmet!!

Dis-carnect Battery Isolator
Thinking about this overnight - you could run a separate wire with fuse to supply the siren in the same way you would do with a high power horn and have it activated via a relay triggered by the alarm (if it is not already set up like this anyway)

Cobb tuning
Wotcha and welcome I looked at the accessport and initially decided against it for the following: I wasnt going to be performing diagnostics and analysis as frequently as what that will enable - a laptop and odb port adapter would suit that purpose. The downloadable maps are done for a generic car which is fine but you have that currently with the OEM Subaru map but if you have one done by Andy Forrest or Jolly Green Monster you start with generic and then it gets tweaked specifically for your car and so will be spot on. I stand to be corrected but... as I read / understand the maps are designed around the NAS product which has different petrol grades and barometric pressure / weather etc so whilst that may not have a huge effect a tuner in the UK / Europe will be tuning for local conditions and again getting it spot on. The Accessport product is a great piece of kit and if you want the flexibility it provides say for tweaking on a day to day basis for individual tracks / weather conditions I would consider it - once you have had a baseline map to your car from a local tuner. If you want it for things like turbo boost etc get your hands on a newer Subaru LCD head unit which plugs into the CANBUS and will display all of that info

Dis-carnect Battery Isolator
as the alarm is supposed to be a low current current drain it should not affect the working of the alarm itself - it may affect the siren on activation as this will draw more current

That will make a difference - used to run mintex pads years ago with Tarox discs - great stopping power, I just seemed to wear them out very quickly :P

UK guy returning home, my journey from a 600hp WRX to a modded Forester and beyond...
you can get a fully carbon piece as a replacement which gives a similar effect not since they changed the rules and I de mobbed - had to give the toys back at the gate :( although to be fair Matelots and firearms are not really a good combination - we are not really safe, more of a danger to ourselves than any impending threat, Marines and Army are far more qualified (safer) than we ever were :D
