Very nice jai. Rg motorsport I recommend. They will do you a boost controller and remap. Walbro 255 de cat and that will get you a strong 400 bhp

That's the trouble with the AYC when you push it to far it makes the rear quite unsettled as its always trying to correct the yaw movement, found the same with my 9 FQ320

To be fair when i drove a 7 you had to be a twat to do it but it will go once you push it past the understeer.

Thats what makes them great drivers cars compared to imprezza's IMO. They are certainly no where near as bad as a 4wd cossie IMO.

I have never had a problem with my 7 and that's running 550 bhp and does get driven hard. keep thinking about an RS rear diff for it, but tbh it seems fine as is.

Took the car to Dynotech to have a good check over, fit a silenced decat pipe and rr session. It made 339hp which I'm pleased with and turns out that other than the exhaust the car is standard so will be going back for a stage 1 to get it upto around the 380 mark. Also gave the engine a bloody good clean as was filthy and fitted a genuine mitsubishi vortex generator. The car is then off to the paintshop in the next week or so to have a few bis done to make it mint.

Just got the car back from the paintshop after having the front end painted due to stonechips and also the wings/side skirt done so looks much better now. The Nur spec exhaust was getting on my nerves as soooo loud even with the silenced decat fitted, ordered the blitz bung and put that in and has made it an awful lot better, just hope it passes the noise tests at brands.
