Just had an EcuTek race rom on my 2006 TD04 forester xt and got 290.9 hp and 360 ft/lbs torque. I agree that he's not the fastest at returning calls etc but it's just him and the results are worth it.

Just had an Ecutek race rom by RaceDynamix (with auto blip and launch control) and got 290.9 hp and 360ftlbs making it the most powerful TD04 turbo forester they've ever done. Really happy with that. 22mm anti roll bar next.
