nice to see a post about someone's own car, rather than wheel adverts -and- nice to see a black car with other than black wheels

how did you get the HP up (from 300?)

(I'm a fan of DCT however)

Thanks! A good friend of mine has his own tuning company called BrenTuning and he uses OE Tuning software. That along with the power modifications listed below. I've actually changed a few things since the last dyno, I need to go back I might be around 410whp...hopefully!

BRENTUNING/OE Tune
upgraded intercooler
BERK Technology Axelback exhaust system
Raceland downpipes
BMS DCI(for now, working on Mr.5 intake mod)
diverter valve upgrade
LSD from Koala Motorsport(Installing actually on Wednesday)
good polish on the paint...good for 2HP! LOL!

Thanks! Yeah, it is. He did my '06 STi a few years ago and it was incredible.

Nice ride!

I bought Bren's E46 M3 from him. He and I went to college together; does great work.

Thanks! It's a really good power curve holding all the way to the rev-limiter. This dyno chart was from last summer and going to have another dyno run in a few weeks. Since last summer I've added LSD, axel-back exhaust and a tune update. So hopefully I'm over 400whp. By the way I see you on Sticky's forum all the time, I love your car.
