Would Like Some Local Fellow Subaru Fans

Post by Zombie_Z »

I am very new to not only the "tuning"/modding scene, but the Subaru scene.

I live in Spokane, WA and would like to meet some local fellow Subaru fanatics that could help me out.

See, I soon am doing a swap to an engine with a turbo, meaning I need to find an ECU, and someone who tunes Subaru's. I figure with some fellow fans local, I could get some good leads on what I need.. I can be pretty knowledgeable at times, but am a complete newbie, greenhorn, dummy, however you word it, That is me.

This is my 2nd Subaru, but the first one I have had any real plans for. Any help and info would be spectacular. Thanks in advance.

I noticed people are viewing this thread,, but not posting. thats a bummer. Is it because Im a newbie or just cause of my locale? I really would like to meet some fellow subie guys. I know I am new, and suck, but would still like to meet some people.

Be more specific about your plans, budget, what you do know and what exactly you need help with. Tuning is way too broad

There's very little options in the way of tuning. Its basically you buy a jdm wrx ecu and buy a chip from rob on this forum or get a piggyback or stand alone engine management. Nobody tunes these ecus unfortunately. Its going to be a ton of work to swap a turbo engine into your na car. You should begin by spending countless hours searching for threads on swapping and rob tune before divng into this project.
