My little sister just had some friends over for a Belated Birthday BBQ Bash, one of her friends was dropped off in a 56/maybe 57-reg WRBlue Forester STI, very, very nice. What are these things like, I don't know that much about them just that they aren't 'officially' imported to the UK and Litchfield Imports is the only place to go for them and they pump out something like 300bhp and 300lb-ft

Forester STI is essentialy the Jap Scooby STI in a roughty toughty looking body. It's a rare beast over here because it's never been officialy imported by Subaru to the UK. It's a nice stealthy alternative to the Scooby, but because it's Jap spec it's supposed to run on higher RON fuel than is easily available over here ( except ultimate 102 at 2.57 a litre).

I'm pretty certain Powerstation would have mapped it on behalf of Litchfield for UK 99RON fuel before it goes out the door therefore no need to pay silly prices for 102RON.

Yeah, they're remapped when Litchfield get them, I read they're about 280bhp JDM standard
