The ACT 6 puck that holds 345 torque is $649 vs the Clutchmasters FX300 that holds 335 torque and is $949 or the FX400 that holds 500 for $959.

Quality wise, in my personal experience, maybe not everyone's, I've had clutchmasters, ACT, Exedy, Competition Clutch, Spec Clutch, they're all similar until you get into high HP applications. I currently have an Exedy twin disc, but before that I had the ACT Extreme stage 4, and that lasted for 3 years in a 500hp car, so I can't say anything bad about it, especially for the price.

Is the cricket sound/ fuel pump replacement worth getting done or does it just do it again after replacement?

Mine was giving me noises back in the summer and I started using only shell gas and the crickets went away. I haven't had the TSB done, I don't really want the dealership doing things to my car unless it is absolutely necessary.

haven't seen any success so far, so I would wait until at least year model 2014 and see what people are reporting then

Plus I have not been hearing it as much, only used Sunoco

There is a Facebook group called "NOVA subarus" that hosts monthly meets. Their next one is Sunday the 27th. I've been told one of the twins shows up to their meets most of the time. If anyone of you are interested..

My apologies. I use Facebook mainly to stay in touch with friends from back home. But here it is.

"We had a great turn out for the monthly meet. Our goal is to have a meet at least once a month if not biweekly on the warmer weather. For now we will plan on meeting every 3rd weekend of the month "On the border" in the Tyson's area. They have a big parking lot and great food. We will hang outside for a little then go in and get some food. Please don't act stupid in the parking lot as this is a chance for locals to meet and not show off"

When: Sunday, January 27th at 2PM.

Where: 8053 Leesburg Pike, Vienna, VA, 22183.

Phone auto corrected most of it so its paraphrased and not exact quoting. I also couldn't copy paste from my phone and had to type it out.

I'm pretty disappointed that I'm gonna miss this. It's pretty much right in my back yard.
