You stayed within the spec? You didnt get teased to go 2.1 for a better tax?

No stayed with the 2.5 for the extra torque, it seems to suits the longer ratio gearbox. Well I haven't driven it on yet. Waiting on remap first. Just cruised down from Ali's at 120kph=2.5rpm which would have been nearly 4k rpm in the typeR. €20 of juice got me 260km which I was very happy with.
After mapping that will reduce.

Hi Bobcat

I haven't done the light yet, but the plan Is to get them done, can get replace clear fog light from Subaru. Then can get red vinyl overlay to put on or mask and spray with a metallic red paint.
