Sorry, I meant 13 hours to install it. Not sure on the removal cost exactly, il ask Terry on Monday. 

If were going for 400 whp I think I'm going to add new brakes into the equation. They need replacing anyway let alone with that much power. 

I don't think there in a Subaru in the province of SK with +400 whp

Oh and on a side note, Blouch is horrendous at answering calls and emails!!

I have tried multiple times both ways and no response. As I'm going rotated I want my dom3 rebuilt before I sell it to ensure it's good for the next owner.

Okay so updates will be a little here and there but lets just say something very special is coming, currently in talks with P&L about something unique for the WRX which will take this project to a level I never considered before.

To say I am excited is an understatement but I am sworn to secrecy at this point!

As long as I hit 400 whp I will be happy, hopefully 425 but we will see

Well things have just been way way too hectic over the last few weeks with work to accomplish anything. I have had to work all my weekends and finiding time for the car is proving very difficult. I did take it out for a little spin yesterday and the ticking is getting louder, I also had a bit of hesitation during even gentle acceleration.

The car is now parked for sure. I am not running the risk of permanent damage to the sb.

I am now working my ass off to get everything ready and the money together to send the car to P&L. Things are going well at work and with some hard work I know the car is coming back better than ever

So today was the LAST time the car is being driven, I kinda went against what I said and drove it a few blocks to a local car show. It was an awesome day, great turn out, glorious 28c weather and lots of interest in the car. It honestly felt like the perfect day to park her before more major surgery.

Now the exciting stuff begins!
