It was amazing, Evo9Gt Jap import so £180 tax and oddly £470 fully comp! It was running 419/433 when I gave it back to its rightfull owner :( but the 2months I had it were awesome! It did attract lots of attention especially with the screamer pipe on

Went from 260bhp impreza wrx, to the Evo, then to a 320bhp STI which ended up at 360bhp before selling that to be all grown up and sensible and getting the Focus tdci to carry the dogs around in! That was the biggest shock! lol

going to pick the 6MPS up later today.... The car is already on the forum somewhere, and he got the SRI and TIP from the group buy, which he's throwing in with the car as they've not been fitted yet

Here she is. Picked her up yesterday and had a very steady drive home, No Vpower in any of the services and only 1/4tank of fuel!!  Filler her up with momentum this morning and had a bit of a play on some of the back roads Fitted the Corksport SRI, TIP and Forge recirc valve this afternoon, so I'll have another play tomorrow. Thinking about getting a cat bypass pipe made up then a remap in a couple of months. Need tyres before I start spend anything on making it faster me thinks
