Had my 340 upgrade fitted today.
BUT the extra torque is great and defiantly noticeable. Great exhaust note too.
Def worth the extra money to get the extra power, noise and keep the warranty. Nicely developed Pro-R.
Thanks to everyone involved (you know who you are:-)) and for the personal touch.

Had my 340 upgrade fitted today. Can honestly say I cant notice the extra bhp yet but I'm sure it's there and to be honest I didn't want it for that, BUT the extra torque is great and defiantly noticeable. Great exhaust note too.

no it's just the full 340R package as it is a no brainier upgrade to have a nice exhaust sound and warranty. It also gives some more Torque to make it more "drivable" in the real world. IMHO
LOL had it upgraded to coal then
Mike I'd prefer the adverse handling track

I've booked mine in for early January... Local dealership need the car for upto 5 days since the ECU needs to back etc. Also fitting an upgraded air filter, is there any other recommendations for upgrades at low cost while the car is with Subaru?

Terry get the eibach pro-r spring kit and full geometry done
It will transform your cars looks and handling. It would also also suggest braided stainless brake lines while they have them disconnected

Had mine done there by a nice young man called Mike Wood
He did comment on my lack of fuel economy. 5K miles and 21.5mpg and 171miles and 14.5mpg. He said "what have been doing" I replied having fun
To be fair I never drive it in sport mode an WTF is i for???
the soundtrack is great and warranty friendly IMHO
Initially not overly impressed with performance gains.
But when I got out of motorway trafficand on local B roads I did notice the extra torque.
So it's a big thumbs up from me for £1k warranty, sound and a bit more grunt.

Just a quickie, did anyone who has had the upgrade package get a certificate like the one we got for the 320r upgrade - proof for when selling on?

For those that had their tweak done at IM, is there anyone in particular we can contact to try and arrange something or was it a 'friend of a friend job?' Losing the car for 5 days isn't going to be easy 
Did the local dealer still do the exhaust changes and reprogramme the key fobs (I assume this still needs doing like in the old PPP days?)
