    I am now the proud owner of a 07' STI. The handling, the handling, the handling--goodness gracious, I didnt even mention the power yet, lol. It's not even fair with the launch control and flat foot shifting. Thank you to the programmers who made that possible. I have to admit, I wanted to get rid of those two mods for safety reasons because the last thing I want is problems when it comes to this vehicle as it is very expensive. After learning how to properly utilize the FFS, it feels as if its actually safer because it drops right in with almost zero burn of the clutch, full boost, and no hesitation--Shift point of 6250 with the FFS delta of 3000. Someone else shifted, lost boost, and had to climb back up while this thing is pinned with full boost through every gear, how is that fair? It's not, hahahah.

    The launch control is something that I will never use, but for someone who wants to buy a new clutch every year, it's probably a great feature.

    AM I KIDDING MYSELF?? Maybe this is horribly bad for the clutch and tranny?

    These arent from today, but they look better in the sun than the ones from today in the dark garage.

    Not to steal your thread but was the FFS only a STI option?

    Welcome to the club and let the modding fever begins.

    What's all done to the car? How many miles are on it?

    Have fun!
