I dont plan on doing anything other than exhaust, wheels and tune on this car as its a lease and I might either trade it in for a newer iteration or just buy it out.

I didn't get a protune. Don't see a need for it, to be honest. The maps I have from HyperTech are plenty good, and I feel pretty comfortable as it stands.

With that said, as an STi owner you won't have an option lol. Cobb is the only dominant company with out of the box STi tunes.

Not gonna hold my breath for a new iteration of the STi - bleh, the new models look weak compared to the GRenades.

Hey 370forme. Nice car and color I got myself a 12 Sti sedan as well and I love it and love it some more. I had ordered the plasma blue as well but it was Takeing to long to get in so I just took a silver one. Sti deff needs a tune couse soa tunes em lean for emission reasons. Good luck with your car

Thanks man. I just got a Cobb AP and the OTS stage 1 map really makes this car a different beast. No hesitation at WOT and the throttle response has gotten way better. Are you on IWSTI.COM? Good luck and let me know if you have any questions about the STI.
