Oh ok. Maybe get a cvt cooler with the new transmission might help handle the extra power and torque. I got a mishimoto cvt cooler installed on mine in October last year.

Nice! How's the cvt holding up?

Oh no hopefully it's nothing to serious damn cvts!

Nice man how's it feel compared to stock?

A place called york road automatics in penrith. But any automatic transmission specialist should be able to do it. Cost $350

That was my car that was tuned by msr. I've done close to 6000ks on it since then as I use my car Daily and travel alot of ks for work. I've had no issues at all the cvt holds up just fine. I did have my cvt serviced 2 weeks before the tune also.

It comes on a little earlier but it I think the biggest difference is the power is much more consistent throughout the rev range. I remember it feeling a little flat around 4k when it was stock. Now feels like the turbo doesn't run out of puff

Yep that's the one

I've launched it a couple of times from 0-100 it's definitely faster than stock but haven't timed it. Would actually love to do some roll racing in it. I would like to see how it would go against like a stock sti. Might still get chopped lol

Nice. I had a similar setup on my hawkeye ej255. You can hear the stock bpv really well with the intake on the levorg as well and the spooling sounds awesome. I had a J pipe to install on my Levorg but my tuner said it will cause the car to lag off idle then the torque would come on too strong...

Only thing he said about the intake is it will run a bit lean without a tune. I only installed the intake for the sound but the fact I gained about 40kw at the wheels after the tune I think the car gained a bit of power from it. The mishimoto intake uses pipping the same diameter as stock and...

Thanks mate. Yeah he's done two tunes on one of my previous wrx's as well. I sourced the hks system from Japan. RHDjapan it was about $1000 delivered. It's really quiet at idle and low revs but has a nice raspy almost hollow sound at high rpms. Perfect for me because I daily the car for work...
