STI is a lot better then a WRX, so ill give ya that (:
Im glad u arent goin for full engine mods right away... One of my friends did that to his WRX, and something ended up going wrong (under 4k miles), and they couldnt help him because he modded his engine (and other stuff) ha! Make sure she works nice before u do anything (:

Not only that. . . but the STi's ECU code still needs to be cracked before proper engine management products (like the TXS UTEC) can be released. And I'm not even touching an FI'd engine unless I've got electronic management in place, already.
Hell. . . the beast already has 300 HP. I THINK I can be happy with that for a while.
I am looking at some decent suspension mods come spring, though. Upgraded sway bars, and a lower front brace (as I see that area being the only weak spot on the chassis). Beyond that, I'm looking at gauges to see what's going on, and other minor add-ons to make Sonia a better daily, as well as a better contender on the autocross circuit.

Rep Power: 343 the sub install is so clean! you should have had them sink the amps into the floor and put a peice of plexi over them, would have looked alot cleaner IMHO.
Sweet ride again, congrats.

Besides, this install cost about half what the last one did.
Thanks, though. Two stipulations for this install:
1. Take up a minimum of space - accomplished
2. Be as light as possible - also accomplished. (The sub enclosure weighs less than a pound)
