So, I have not done the recall so far.
They don't have to take it off to return it to stock. Read the instructions linked above, nowhere in any of Subaru's documentation does it state the vehicle must be in stock form. It actually says the exact opposite.



They have to work around and accommodate the mods. It may take an extra 30 minutes to remove the SC as it would to remove the stock intake manifold. SOA would approve this extra time. The dealer just has to call them to get it approved. They'd rather you pay it because you pay full rate.
