Firstly, are you capable of doing the ECUTune? and if so, what would you charge to do the ECUTune and tranny cooler w/the "spin on filter thingy"?

As it stands, I do have an outstanding mechanic (Richie @ Superior Import Repair) here in the Portland area that I've been taking all my Subies to for 5 years now.
Richie is good, I've done business with him in the past... I don't know what we'd charge you for the 60K service - You could call 541 754 1515 and speak with Dave in Service, he can get you a quote, mention that you know me (Andrew)... As for the other stuff, figure an hour for the computer swap ($85) and an hour for the external filter installation. (two if you are going to add a cooler as well)... We can do a tranny fluid exchange at the same time, would be beneficial. (We have the new "high pressure" Subaru ATF which I've been thinking about putting in my SVX... It's for the 5EAT but it works in the 4EAT as well.)
