Welcome to the Subie family!!
Also,
^^^I echo all of this. If the springs are S-Techs, I would almost reccommend (sp?) getting a set of stock sti springs and budgeting for a good, quality suspension setup in the future. Tein springs are kind of terrible (when compared to subaru's stock pieces anyway)...their coilovers rock though..go figure. An STI deserves some awesome suspension parts.1. Leave the BOV on it. They normally start leaking once you run 19psi+ for long periods of time but the car will not ever run right if you put a 100% atmosphere bov on it. If you yank the intake silencer out of the passenger's side fender and put a catless downpipe on you'll be able to hear the BOV much more.
2. Dont go with an HKS downpipe, its the ****tiest design on the market. I recommend Titek for an affordable dp that fits properly.
3. DP and a 3" exhaust will give you nasty boost creep so you'll need a tune to control the boost. Either get an AP and use a terrible off-the-shelf map, use the AP and budget for a Protune, or get an OpenECU tune. For a stock-ish car I highly recommend Scott Siegel at Topspeed for a tune.
What color are the Tein springs? They make some that are barely stiffer than stock STI springs and some that are way softer and designed for WRX shocks.I would say Whiteline, Cobb, and H&R are good names to know for when you make more upgrades.
Other than that, she's hot man! Enjoy her!
