Hi the name is Pao Moua. First time owner of a Subaru and brand new to turbo as well. heck I'm not even sure how to read the turbo gauge yet. I live in the city of Saint Paul on east side. I recently bought a 02 wrx wagon from one of my in law at a price I couldn't pass up. I've doing some research here and there on Subarus. Also on engine noise as my Subaru sounds like it has piston slap. However it goes away as the car warms up. Anyways I've always been an NA guy. A few of you might have seen my integra, but I rarely take it out as I'm always working on it. Anyways I'll try to upload some pictures of the girls. Enjoy and feel free to ask any questions.
Im in the same boat as you @polomoua this is my first subaru and first turbo and my first awd car but Ive gotten a lot of info from the guys on here and the guys on here kinda like to joke around on some stuff so just be prepared to have thick skin on some stuff. I also have a '02 wagon, its not in as good of shape as yours but its a work in progress. These cars take a little time to get used to on where the turbo kicks in and all that stuff. If you have questions ask and youll prolly get a lot of answers from many ppl but these guys are all cool from what I have known. Theres also a big cruise on June 27th and theres a thread on here if you want to check it out
