i had a map done on my 06 wrx - ok is first of the 2.5's - decat, sti intercooler, k&n panel filter and she is somewhere around the 285 mark - rapid spool up from the td04 makes it a cracking quick road car. Duncan from Race Dynamix is the man for the job...

Jdm cars are 2.0 only mate, the 2.5 is is for the uk market. The newage 2.5 engine has been prone to several problems with failures and would recommend you read up on this first.

All JDM Impreza's from 2003 model year are 2ltr, all JDM STI's from that year onwards are 2ltr twin scroll units, no 2.5 JDM Impreza's unless its been done aftermarket (as per the Type 25 Litchfield cars).

Mate as said a JDM is only available as a 2.0ltr
The UK car from start to 2005 was a 2.0ltr
and from the 2006 model onwards only came as a 2.5ltr
The only way to get a JDM with a 2.5ltr is to fit one yourself or buy
A litchfield TYPE 25 from 2003 - to current hatch model (I think) if not till the hawkeye, as litchfiled took the JDM model or Spec C and with the sucsess of the Type 20 designed the same thing but fitted a 2.5ltr lump and called it a TYPE25

I hate to contradict some of the other posters on here but the latest JDM A Line model Impreza's do have the 2.5 litre engine fitted.

Probably one of the top 3 questions in SN.
Briefly.
JDM has over UK
0.5L less engine capacity
large port heads
better cams
8000 rpm redline
shorter gear ratios
twinscroll turbo
drive by cable
rear wiper
privacy glass
235 section tyres (MY05 >)
All of which makes it the better car in most situation.

I believe the springs are different Andy. I can't confirm this though. Are the head gaskets that much weaker than the JDMs? I don't know much about the head gasket issues, i've always thought only the pistons are the problem area.
