The short term plan will be sports cat, fuel pump and remap just to get it comfortably into the 3's hopefully around 320/330 and then decide where to go from there. It's had BC Adjustable Coilovers fitted in 2013 which seem to make a massive difference to the ride over the standard set up. It feels very planted and less choppy than my hawk felt. Apart from that it has a ninja 2 back box which sounds nice, prosport evo digital gauges, led and de tango'd front lights and a front splitter.
Body wise it's good and just has a couple of the usual door dinks but nothing that can't be sorted in time.
What amazed me the most is I have driven and looked at quite a few new 'potential' cars over the last few weeks and I still enjoyed driving the scoob more. The bonus is it costs less too. Would like to have driven the new STI as it's getting some good reviews but again just couldn't justify the money for a new one.
