Hawkeye project- Will update as I go
Did this last week to my WRX, very happy with the results.
I love the shift light and noise, I set it a 2300 so you can see and hear what it does, is a great addition to the car I feel.

This is the latest of a lot things I am planning to do, thought I would update the thread as I go along.
So far I have done the following to the car -
Upgraded brakes - Grooved discs and Bluedtuff NDX Pads- Massive improvement from standard.
Tein springs fitted - Sits slightly lower and makes a good difference.
Rear anti roll bar - Whiteline adjustable 24mm bar fitted - Nice improvement.
Rear drop links - Whiteline fitted
Whiteline anti lift kit - Got rid of the understeer.
The car handles superbly, gives so much confidence when driving.
Upgraded fuel pump- Just to get ready.
2nd decat, replacement middle section and backbox. Nice noise, not too loud(yet).
I have the following planned and wil be getting most in the next few weeks-
New wheels - Have ordered
Sports cat - Got this already just waiting for mapping appointment before I fit.
Bigger turbo - VF34 maybe or other
TMIC - Sti or maybe other
Rear spoiler - Have one on order.
Looking at getting coilovers but need to think carefully as car handles superb now without being too harsh.
This will do for starters, want to get it mapped with standard turbo and sports cat etc fitted and then go from there.
I want to make sure the car remains ok to drive daily, I do not want to ruin what is a great car.
I have no issues with spending money on the car but as I say I need the car to remain ok for daily use as it is a daily driver. My previous car was a Golf R32 and I ruined it by fitting a supercharger. Took a good car and ruined it, will not be doing that again.
