When our customer, Will, told us he was building a sleeper 2013 Subaru Forester XT Turbo, we were intrigued! Check out the modifications below that allowed for him to create 228 horsepower at all 4 wheels, and a very impressive 351 ft/lbs of torque! All of this through a stock exhaust, with minimal mods. The COBB AccessPort is a great tuning device, and we covered it in this other post previously.

I looked long and hard for a 2013 Forester XT Touring with low miles, finally I tracked one down 175 miles away. It was well worth the search amd the wait. Before I even had license plates I had to fix the body roll and release the power held back by restrictive parts and tuning. It’s now making a peak of 351awtq and 228awhp running 16lbs of boost on a custom map from PIA in Tacoma, WA. I kept the exhaust stock for road trips, and so my wife wouldn’t kill me. My 16 month old daughter loves the car and makes growling noises every time I start it up. Thanks to Redline360 and PIA for the amazing customer service and mods. It’s truly an amazing sleeper, and handles perfectly for daily driving and the ocassional (okay, more than ocassional) hard corner. I would highly recommend both Redline 360 and PIA to anyone looking for their car to perform at its best!
What an awesome daily driver! What do you think? Let us and Will know in the comments below!
Thats very impressive.
Will the Cobb Accessport work on a JDM 2002 wrx wagon?
