Well my buddy just got a FMIC test fitted by kingpin for the gt35r setup which is rated for 1000hp but the finished product that will be sold will be a FMIC rated for 500hp. Woohoo! I can finally see and get to my tranny dipstick!

NICE! A Forrester with a GT35R... let see, laggy, but fast as hell for about 3k rpms ;) If you haven't talked to Darrin about the 35 kits, you definitely should. All the work that people are putting into making them work (new headers/uppipe, intake and downpipe) I think are a little much for what you're getting.

Not really interested in the turbo, just the FMIC!

with a 2.5 liter any unfortunate lag on the Forester can be fixed with some timing adjustments below 3.5k ...

I know you're not interested in the kit just responding to an earlier comment.

definately not a turbo for an autoX enthusiast.... now if you were participating in track days.,... different story
