So, After much decision. Not really, I knew a Subaru was the best in class. So, once my camaro took a dive I upgraded! I am now the proud new owner of a 2011 Silver Subaru WRX. I love the hell out of it. The throttle response, the NO turbo lag. It truly is an amazing car! I did a few things to it but, I really don't see much more to do. Maybe, when it's older ill do preformance upgrades... But, the 2011's have the lighter suspension, the new body kit.
What was done:
- SPT Exhaust
- 10" Kicker
- Wheel Locks
- All weather mats
- K&N Typhoon CAI
- STI Short Shifter
Simple right?
What to be done:
- Tint windows
- Mesh grill for the hood scoop
- Mesh grill for the lower part of the bumper, see pic. -->. (This pic doesn't actually show the grill. It's just to show what area of the car I am talking about for those who can't imagine.
)
- Brembo breaks
- Maybe, get a boost gauge
- Maybe, Window Deflectors

Any suggestions or idea's please let me know. Like I said, this is my daily driver, so, I will not be doing any performance mods yet.

... or keep the CAI and get a pro-tune for Stage 1. It will wake up your car significantly.

Thanks for the support guys. I will look into the Stage 1 tune.
Definitely if you are running a CAI tune that WRX or your love affair with the car will be short lived!Originally Posted by GhostyG
Also get the boost gauge!
