    Hello everyone!

    I'm a complete Subaru newbie (along with modding in general), and was looking for a good place to learn. I was told about you lot and how good you are with the people that come on, even the newbies. So I figured I'd give it a shot and see what I can learn and hope that I can help out some in the future.

    I currently drive a Subaru 2002 Wrx and bought it modded last year, so I have been trying to learn about the mods and what they all do, on top of just general maintenance and all with the car.


    Here's what my car looks like:

    Again, nice to meet you all!

    Welcome. A good place to start would be to tell us what "mods" you are referring to and I'm sure a lot of us would be more than happy to explain to you the basic how stuff works on any particular part.

    -STI pinks
    -Walbro 255lph fuel pump
    -Grimmspeed BCS
    -Hyperflow tmic
    -COBB SF air intake
    -COBB SF cold air induction box
    -COBB turbo heat shield
    -TURBO XS "catless" Turbo-back exhaust
    -MRT Performance "Catless" Up- pipe
    -NGK Irridium 1 step colder plugs
    -Exedy clutch

    -ATI gauge pod
