    I got my new-to-me Forester XT Sport a month ago and have been slowly working out all the bugs (stupid mods) from the PO. I didn't realize how much the tune SUCKED until Doug retuned it. It's night and day! I ended up with +20 HP and +40 Tq, but that's not really a concern of mine. I wanted it smooth and for a UTEC Delta, it's as smooth as my freshly shaved... um, yeah. It drives awesome... I'd rather have a tuned AP, but for what I gave him he did a banging job. It's smoooooth and pulls much harder...

    My only complaint is that the stupid Coke machine spits out whatever the hell it feels like and there is no more cozy customer lounge. Both of which are 100% Trey's fault... :unamused:



    PS- the welds on the cage in the race car look freaking incredible!

    Thanks, I was very pleased with how your FXT came out.

    Edit: I would be curious to find out who tuned it previously

    doug, clean out your PMs...

    It was 284ish and 320ish or something like that... it's soooo smooth too. It's addictive! My '05 STi put down 280/295ish with a 6 speed. So I'm not going crazy when I say my SUV is faster than my STi. :)

    Now I need to get my brakes sorted out and it'll be ready for a track day.

    I came really close to going FXT myself. Maybe I can talk the wife into getting one...
