Ive watched a few vids on youtube and most people have a tick. Maybe its because i unplugged the battery and its relearning? I dunno. Very fast tick, a few every second id say.

Then trac control light turned off and i could but check engine light was on. Also dealer couldnt check codes with obd !? Why would that be. It wasnt even registering. Like a blank car. But two days ago they updated the ecu with the new idle codes. So they must have gotten into it then. Also my batter was unpluggd while i was taking apart the intake and adding the k&n. Could it be the ecu had not yet loaded. Dealer is only 10 mins away.

Dude you just got a recient mod the dealer reflash, which will be a stock tune.
This is unlikely to be compatable with your injen intake and your agency power (assume catless header)
I think you likely have multiple problems now.
You have only owned car a short period and it was modded correct ?
I suspect it may have had tune at some point, the prevoius guy may have left tune in and the dealer has now flashed over it with stock rom.
You may also have the cam problems that were evident with early cars causing rough idle some were fixed with a reflash some required parts to be replaced like cam actuators ecu , oil control vavles or re shim cam sensor.
its ulikely the stock tune is going to run well with a injen intake especially the early model which wasknown to cause bogging and hesitation without a maf rescale and you also likely have catless header which will probably cause cel P0420 on the now stock tune.
As theother guys said you need at least a obd device to read codes and log fuel trims etc before you have any chance of sorting out what your problems are. You need to read cel codes from car to see if your getting codes for cat efficiency due your catless header or cam error codes due cam issues or rich lean codes due your intake or traction\vsc codes maybe due to stuffed wheel speed sensor or other issue.
or just take it to a seputable subaru shop forcthem to sort it
