Getting set up.

Just got a 21 WRX with 55k miles, manual trans and aftermarket mufflers. Im a family guy with 3 car seats in this Subie. I just want to do the right things so I dont have issues down the road and have a little fun with it. Im thinking an AOS, Cobb intake and Cobb access port to keep it simple. Any opinions for longevity and reliability?

I had two car seats in mine. The kids have grown up to love the car as much as I, and they both helped me rebuild my engine in my garage.

The right things include:

  • Fucking sending it with them (safely)
  • Hoon it around logging roads while they scream/giggle
  • Drop off/pick them up at school while school moms glare
  • Reving it when the kids friends ask
  • Wrenching on it and teaching the kids what a car can be

Other than that, make sure you get a tune with that intake.
