Guys,
My car is coming up for the 300,000 k and the subaru dealer was telling me he though the lack of power was due to age and the injectors. I didn't think so because it can still reach 210kph. After reading one of the threads in the mod section I adjusted to throttle cable (Cable on the right of throttle body). What I didn't realize till now was that the lack of power was in fact a lack of changing down. Before it always felt like it had no pawer when you put your foot down it was just the peddle not opening the throttle fully and telling the transmission to change down. Still got some adjustment to do but now change from third to forth at 200kph when pushing it. Also kicked down to 3rd from 4th at 160kph. Only problem left to fix is a sticking ICA value under the throttle body (causes idle to stay high).
Tony
