Yes, just a different downpipe and a revised tune. Nfi what that means in terms of stages. HPF had their standard packages then which included an air intake. I was sceptical of the benefits of that. They did put a different airfilter with the first tune & up the fuel to 98. I was told by...

After a performance tune - plus about 15KW at the wheels, a much better torque curve (got rid of that dead spot at 4k or so) & better fuel economy when driven normally. After a new downpipe and an updated tune - another about 13k at the wheels for a total of 27 or 28kw, and slightly worse...

No issues at all. Although, given COVID lockdowns, I have been driving a bit less. I don't do stupid things like launches, but I will put my foot down sometimes & the car goes as well as it did the day I got the work done. My only fear had been what I thought was a lack of a CVT transmission...

Yes you did meet me there. I had a tune & later an Invidia downpipe plus another tune done at HpF in Dandenong. https://www.hp-f.com.au/ I just checked their website & their prices have gone up since I was there. They did a very good job & I am still happy with what they did, (for example -...

Mine (levorg 2L in Australia) has the front mounted CVT cooler like what is shown in the second image.

Levorgs come with a CVT trans cooler.

For the 2.0 litre Levorgs & WRXs, cold air intakes are only good if like a bit more noise on the intake. They offer no real performance increases. Look up MRT Performance in Sydney. They have a youtube channel & a website - they have done lots of testing on alternative intakes & conclude they...

I have not driven a 1.6, but the turbo lag you describe exists on the 2.0GTS as well, unless you drive around in the Sports # mode. Both I drive and S drive modes - the lag is annoying, but using the paddle shifts helps a bit. Unless I am on the highway I use Sports # all the time. Test drive...

I have written about it elsewhere, but to sum up - I have had a tune done, then have since added an Invidia J pipe along with a second dyno tune. The gain from stock is at least +27kw at the wheels. And it is now is a completely different car to drive since that was done. What I am going to...

The work was done at the Horsepower Factory in South Dandenong. They are good.

I had the car on the dyno again today. The total power gain above stock tune is a whisker under 26Kw at the wheels, and the car drives like I think it was meant to. They told me it is getting about 5-6Kw more at the wheels more than a current model unmodified WRX STI would on the same dyno. I...

I had mine done at subaru docklands and it was abouf $900. That included an additional red trim. The blue trim looks ok too.

I recently had an Invidia 3 inch J pipe with a high flow cat convertor fitted. I have kept the rest of the exhaust stock. The car has been retuned to suit, and it pulls noticeably stronger than before. I had already had a Stage 1 tune done to it which was good, & this bolt-on addition has...

That is a good idea. I am in the market for another set of alloy wheels. I know I would like them a bit wider, say 8.5 x 18 like the wrx. Not suref I would want a 19 inch wheel, nor do I have any idea about how different offsets and/or width affects clearance from the guard., or the limits on...

Your wife had a WRX STI....very cool indeed! I will be interested to see if you mod the Levorg - Like standard WRXs, the stock tune can be improved upon.

I have been considering the XB pack. I have found a Victorian agent for the setup. How much of an improvement is it over stock? (I have had a Stage 1 tune which game me +15 to 20 wkw) Did you you get a dyno tune? I like the muffler sound you have too. What brand are they?

Can't remember what mine was pre dyno tune, but post tune it was 1.32 for ages & la week or so ago popped up to 1.41.

Ebay had a Levorg wreck on the market recently. The interior was probably intact judging from rhe photos. It was on Gumtree as well.

I got mine plus the red trim from my local subaru dealer.

The tune was done on a dyno where they connect a computer to the car - I assume it was to remap the ECU. Not sure what you mean about the STi exhaust. In terms of warranty - I know I am taking a bit of a risk, which is probably silly because I got an 8 year warranty on the car when I bought it...
