Ben,
I was talking with Mychailo over a year ago about moding the oil pan to reduce "windage" and pressure loss during racing and his feedback and his response - after checking with his local Subie WRC guru - was that the stock pan has such a good design that no mods are really necessary. This all typed, it probably wouldn't hurt to only run 4 qts (the "LOW" mark on the dip stick is 5 qts).
