only a dyno or street tune would tell you, every motor is different so tunes will vary no matte3r what!!!

id start with some coilovers/lowering springs, or maybe an intake, ive seen your car and it seems youve got everything figured out so far. or some headers;

i just replaced them for him, he seems pretty happy now

midnight blue. blue in the day, black at nightsubaru blue from sti's is nice too

my last gst was just like that when i first got it.!!!

looks like it would be better if i just bore it.. i didnt want to but seems to need it
