I like the way the Harrop looks. I know Edelbrock is the cool kid on the streets right now, though. However, Harrop is cheaper, I believe. If I didn't have my kit, I'd probably go with Harrop just because of the design, but Edelbrock seems pretty reliable so far...

Totally. I like the Harrop for its looks and that is a bit lower down in the engine bay. The edelbrock is ugly imo. I love the simplicity in both too. Simple install is a huge plus too.

Right you are! The Harrop does look way better than the edelbrock. And a PD supercharger would give you that awesome whine haha. Hopefully you will be able to get it sometime this year. I'd love to hear it.

Me too. Rumor has it that Harrop will be importing the kit more to the US?They're supposedly announcing something about it tomorrow. Check their Instagram!

I'll have to look. I know you can order them through Moto East. They also offer their own tuning plus a flex fuel set up AND a smaller pulley. It's a pretty good deal. I think all and all, it comes out cheaper than my Cossy kit did :p

Yeah! I looked them up and it is a good deal imo. The cossy cost hurts it so much unfortunately. Harrop is also apparently seeking carb certification. At least we have options as consumers.

Is Nevada a CARB state? Luckily here in Texas we can get away driving catless (most of the time). But CARB is a wonderful option if your county or state is very strict on emissions.

It isn't but given my proximity and potentially a move there in terms of residence for school or something it is good to have in my back pocket

Thought I'd do a picture update. Recently installed OEM CBS side mirror covers and did an OEM shark fin retrofit also in CBS. The black accents make such a visual impact imo. Contemplating the rear deck STI tS lip spoiler next.

Looks great!!
Love the 2015 tS look!

Btw, are you planning to get the LED dayliner extension pieces? lol
I think the STi Lip spoiler would look good on blue. I had it briefly on my SSM, but didn't really like it and switched to FiveAxis.

Yeah I noticed you didn't care for it. Do you still have it? I might be interested in purchasing in the near future.

The dayliners im waiting on. They're literally worthless so it makes it hard to justify $200 plus importation for them. They complete the look no doubt tho.

Im kind of hesitant and waiting to see if Subaru does a bumper refresh soon too. That may change my plans.

The gurney flap is kinda cool too. I'm halfway tempted to invest in an apr wing for some real down force tho. The STI is cool but it's too expensive and not as effective as I'd like.

Unfortunately no. I've already sold it to someone in CA.

Yeah, I have to agree. They're so overpriced. I kind of regret making that purchase. But it was a crazy impulse buy.

True. I'm excited to see if there will be more cool parts to add/swap.
Hope they don't screw it up.
