    My name is Dusty for those of you who do not know me yet. I have an 06 STI that I bought back in 2006. My mods for the most part have been relatively simple over the years, but I finally decided to drop some dollars and go a little faster. :sx:
    Current mods:

    Interior:
    Defi BF Imperial Boost, EGT, oil pressure
    Focal compenent speakers with JL 10" sub
    Alpine W200 head unit with navi

    Suspension:
    Tein Flex coilovers with EDFC
    Cusco front strut bar
    Tein rear strut bar
    Whiteline adjustable front and rear sway bars
    Perrin endlinks
    Kartboy short shifter and bushings
    Hawk HPS front and rear pads
    Steel braided brake lines (waiting to be installed)

    Motor:
    Invidia DP
    Greddy EVO2 CBE
    Accessport v2
    APS 50/50 BOV
    Perrin FMIC
    Perrin big maf short ram intake
    Blouche 20g tdo5 7cm^2
    Walboro 255
    DW 850 injectors
    Tune by Doug@Topspeed 337hp/351 tq to wheels.

    Future mods:
    External wastegate
    Greddy front lip
    Black out headlight housings (Some one please do this for me! I'll mess it up)
    Window tint
    04-05 tails

    My goals are pretty realistic. I'm looking for reliable daily driver with good spool and a tad bit more power on the top end. I would be happy with 310-340 whp and tq on pump gas. Meth may be an option in the future, but not at the moment (cause i know someone is already thinking go Meth ftw:p)

    All input is welcome on current mods and the direction my car is heading in. Good an bad welcome, more good than bad I hope. Here are a couple of temp pics until I can take some better ones.

    Seans 20g put down 370/370 with room to spare on a hybrid block, so I don't see why you wouldn't be able to get over 400/400 with the better flowing avcs heads

    I'm assuming that is the 20g with a td06 8cm^2 housing right? Is his bottom end built putting down that kind of power?

    Black and gold is sex! You have built you car the way I wanted to with the suspension first then the power!

    My buddy took these initial shots. He does a great job and if anyone wants to hire him for a couple of shots or group shots let me know and I will ask him prices. It won't be that expensive I promise. I have more, but figured I would start with these.
