Hi everyone. I'm a new owner of a 2011 Subaru STI and was wondering if anyone has suggestions on where to obtain parts and service in the Calgary area. Specifically I'm looking to pick up wheel spacers and possibly a Cobb AP to start.

Thanks for the help!

Join the western Subaru club. Might find a used AP and they always post deals when they come up. Vex Performance has been the go-to place for service, though there has been a rash of bad reviews a of late.

Ian at Cobb is the man, I've always dealt with him and Cobb directly.

edit: New V3 accessport is coming out this month too, so if you're fine with a v2 you could probably get one at a good price

We have upgraded a few Subaru STIs...maybe 150 of them since 2004??

COBB APs in stock and on sale :)

Someone mentioned Cobb tune because it's more generic do not yield great gains at our altitude? I don't know about the STIs but one of the better first mods would be up and down pipe and a tune?

Contact Sunny at Air Boy Tuning. My '07 STi was previously tuned by him, simple upgrades and an extra 30awhp and 58awtq :thumbsup:

Up pipe doesn't get you much unfortunately. DP and airboy tune will give the best bang for buck. Mine made 276/300 with that alone.

Uppipe is only necessary for Subarus with a factory cat in them, downpipe (or full turboback) and an Airboy tune and you're set.
