    As much as I love the editing on drivetribe, I often wish we could see a few more POV’s and unedited sections to really get a feel for the car. I love to feel like I’ve semi experienced what it would be like to drive, maybe just me. Great videos as usual though, always looking forward to an upload 👍

    It doesn't matter what you're driving; if you're in Scotland, it will be the ride of your life. From Loch Lomond to Glencoe, from the islands to the Highlands, from North Berwick to Edinburgh, every mile of road is impressive in its own right. Especially Glencoe, that place is truly special.

    Subarus get so much stick, but I'm telling you now, spend a few weeks with one, with the sole realisation that it isn't a comfort car, it's a driving experience, and you'll never want to part with it. I see so many people who have sold them and regretted it, even years later. If I don't drive mine for a day or 2 I absolutely miss it and have to get a spin in. There's nothing like them imo. Mines a rusty, rattly 22 year old dog with 145k miles yet it's never broken down and left me stranded, they are as reliable as you like when they are not modded to the heavens and get just a little tlc, mines even the 5 speed.

    Sounds like it's had ELH fitted. Still sounds great, but for the authentic, distinguished Subie rumble, you need the UEL headers! I understand the performance advantages, but with my 2017 STI, I refuse to make the change.

    Richard would probably appreciate the centre console swapping, with him used to much nicer surroundings.
    "Hawkeye centre console conversion"
    Couple of hundred quid off ebay, plenty around, a 1-2hr job, makes the dash far nicer & cleaner. Also need to change the handbrake for the Hawkeyes, for the newer console to fit, a couple of bolts. done.

    So whats the additive that Shell has added? Tesco 99 gives more power as was shown by VRS on their dyno. V-power makes my car feel sluggish. Great job on the scooby tho! In Birmingham, they don't let silly things like a road closed sign stop em. They just force their way through.

    I like shell v power. But prefer esso synergy 99plus. Btw turbo flutter is harmless. It's compressor surge that harms turbos/engines. Turbo compressor surge happens when in boost. 😎

    Love Arran. If you head north from Adrossan to Fairlie then you can take the moor road to Dalry which is my road for when I got a new car. Over the road from Dalry to Largs for a chippy then back round the coast road through the 3 towns.

    Love the build, but if I had to throw my 2 cents into the mix; I would definitely instal a Blow Off Valve or at the very least, a recirculatory valve like factory, to preserve that turbo at 500hp.
    Second, unequal length headers to bring out that Subaru burble. Other than those changes, the rest is fantastic! Again that's just me though, to each their own.
