Thanks! It was my goal to build a car that improved on all of the deficiencies from the factory but retained as much OEM as possible. I think I’ve nailed it so far haha. Premium components like the Harrop SC are really the key. Can’t compromise on quality.

Fully agree. I built my Forester XT with the intent to build what Subaru would of done if they were building an OEM Forester STi S204 type of a build, and not limited by nanny states like california or bean counters. It's a really exciting package of parts to see in action together when every single component has been upgraded or replaced, and somehow it still drives like it could be a factory car. It used to drive flawlessly, but there is a point where it does get a little rough and a little uncomfortable. When I got the BRZ to daily I let myself do a few more things I wanted to do outside of the scope of an S204 style build and I'm glad I did.
