Now picking it up today, had a problem with one of the sensors when decatting it !!

Had a B9 for last two days as courtesy car. Just cannot get on with automatic in standard, stick it in sport or manual and it's fine.

Will post details when I've got the car back !!!!

That Santa is a talented chap....

Can deliver millions of presents, has a flying sleigh, knows who's been good or bad, and now he can fit PPP... Genius.

I wouldn't trust that fat bearded old fart with my car. You're better off taking it to a Subaru dealer, some of them (only a few mind) will be able to fit it properly for you.

Never trust a man, who's only interested in bouncing little children on his lap, and then delivering his present to them. There;s a word for people like him ......

40bhp and oodles more torque. It's the torque that makes the difference. Really does make the car easier to drive. Intend to give it a good thraping this weekend to see what it can do.

Not too noisy, didn't want it too noisy, just attracts too much attention.

All in all really happy with it

As I now have PPP fitted I have a spare back box and cat. Any idea how much these would sell for, both done 8000 miles ?

Cheers

Are you pleased with the PPP, your post fitment comments don't seem as enthusiastic as your pre fitment posts?

p.s I'm a ppp owner myself so i'm not a hater...

says 40 miles extra, he didnt state how many miles he was from the dealership.

So his drive home is standard distance + 40miles, he could live 20 miles away stopped off etc.
