very basic at the minute, i was told it was vf34,pink injectors, walbro fuel pump,sti tmic,k&n pannel filter, turbo bk zaust,sti ecu......but after a bit resurch and taking it to a local jap tuner i learned it just has the turbo decat exhaust and tmic i hold my hands up and say i should of done my resurch first. But never mind, im ordering a walbro fuel pump and coswirth pannel filter and getting it stage 1 mapped. It feels like its boosting very weak at 0.7bar in hoping its the ecu holding back because of the exhaust and no map.... The rear right strut is clunking, over than that everything else is spot on.

Any ideas on how to make the front end look more aggressive?

You could fit a Bugeye STi scoop and a STi or Prodrive front grille which should make it look a bit more aggressive. But Ultimately something like a Prodrive front bumper and maybe a change or lights (JDM STI or UK300?) should make an improvement IMO

Here are some pics for thought:

Cheers, im loving it, i swapped for a Leon cupra so bit different. Love the look just thinking the front end is missing someit, in getting some fog covers and maybe a decal to pop on them.
