'04 STi
APS turbo back exhaust, CAI, dyno tune - 300 hp, 325 lb-ft at hubs
Swaybars, endlinks, ssk, some other random go fast stuff.

It was loud inside, outside, generally angry. The suspension was hard on my back. Most people that rode in it considered it sensory overload and quite a few actually got car sick. After three years, I was even tired of listening to the turbo and BOV like it was in my lap. I could count on being harassed by the Mass staties about once a month. I say harassed because I would get pulled over asked 20 questions (usually ending somewhere around "Is that a stock exhaust?") and then told to go on. I don't miss any of that.

What I do miss is not having DSC/DTC to even have to think about turning off and locking diffs. Not having to deal with MSD81 was nice, too.
