The question that always comes to my mind is why jump straight from stock power (160-170whp) straight to 400whp? It's an incredible leap, not just in terms of how terrifyingly fast it's going to be...

On 98 octane (which is about 94 octane in american standard) you should be fine running up to 8psi on the standard setup with an e-tune. WHP is typically between 260-290whp in that setup. With the...

If you get the full 3" exhaust, but with the catted front pipe, it will be fairly quiet. I daily drive it with the catless front pipe, and it's not that loud for even my older ears. Road noise from...

Until you start using e85, you are octane limited on power, not injector limited.

Stage 4 is 100% aimed at e85/race gas, meth, or any other exotic fueling setups. e85 lets you get away with murder in terms of making power. Not so much because of the higher boost levels, but...

The WRX and Forester FA20DIT motors sit about 4" higher in the chassis than the FA20 in the FR-S/BRZ. The turbo setup takes all of that extra 4" up. The hotside discharge is also to the opposite...

You'd then need to build a separate cooling system with it's own radiator and water pump. Hardly cost or space effective.

I think the reason for the confusion is that it has been a learning process on what was and was not needed. Many tuners swore you needed fuel injectors and a pump to even reach 270whp for a while.
