Hello,
I wanted to introduce myself in this post. I just purchased a 2017 WRX premium and so happy to be back in a Subaru. I had a 2011 WRX for a short time before I moved and long story short had to sell it. Since then, I've been driving a 2011 Mazdaspeed 3. The MS3 was/is fun (I still own it but hopefully not for long). I'm not thinking much in the ways of mods, though I've been looking at a Cobb AP for some time. Now that I have the subie, I'm pretty sure I'm going to get one.
Anyway, I have a few concerns:
1. Cloth seats: I sweat a lot. I workout 6 days a week and my MS3 had a real problem with sweat odor. Anyone have any similar issues? I've looked into replacing the seats with sparco r100s in vinyl, katzkins seem pretty exspensive. I don't want to use some cheap universal seat cover, so any input would be great.
2. I tried to pull out on the main road, and the throttle response felt dead. It was like I was just rolling forward at 5 mph for 3 seconds and then the car accelerated normally. I'm assuming this is the throttle issue widely discussed. I assume an AP and an OTS stage 1, or an etune will fix this?
