So far, 31 miles in and loving it.

I'll have better photos tomorrow when I get out with the DSLR.





Better photos!



Not an 86 but still gorgeous. Congrats man, may the boost be with you

Nice It's a great car. So very different than the old STI. Put 500 miles on my '15 so far. Already needs more power

Nice @pmccut!

I just broke the 500 mile barrier yesterday as well. Half way done on that break-in. As far as power goes....yeah but not really...but yeah. For me it's more of a....want power...not needs power. I've had this engine/drivetrain setup in some of my previous Suby's so I'm just enjoying the handling now since I know what the power will feel like at Stage 2 ect..

Cobb just released a new model of Accessport for the 15 and the gains from stage 1 are looking quite impressive. A massive bump in the low-mid range power band.

Yeah the power is decent...but I caved and ordered the AP last night It looks like they only made one change on the new model, different turbine backing so it at least makes a bit more power. You should come out to some drives with us - generally a few 86s, another buddy with a 15 LE. Good subarus
