N/A subarus really benefit from getting away from SRI, really helps the low end torque, at least in the intakes we have produced so far.

had my bar in for a month or so now.. i had to pay for it from HD though so that stinks.. but nonetheless the car feels great.. autocrossed it once with another coming this weekend and it feels like a new animal in the corners and really shows coming out the corners.. im also running bilsteins with coilovers so i dont lean to much but now its even more composed.. loving it.. congrats on your good deal

I'll cast my vote for placebo as well. Every time I add something to the car I feeeeeel like it feels better. Bottom line though is that I can count the list of items that actually made a real noticeable difference on one hand... turbo, tires, coilover... most things make nearly no discernable difference, the difference comes as a sum of many little improvements.
