Well it ended up being 3 things causing the drana.

the stalling was stopped by replacing the Airflow meter

then that left me me with splutteringon under acceleration

witch turned out to be a air leak from the throttle enter pipe .

that didnt fix it 100%so they ripped out the plugs and found

the gaps to be to big so they re -gaped then now its 100% could not be happy a....

i've been there a couple times with a mate who gets his wrx serviced there and he swears by them. They are very good at what they do, and they aren't bullshit artists. Plus there is a chick mechanic there who reminds me of the chick from gone in 60 seconds.lol. Plus they allways got imports, wrx's there. They are allways busy

YEah good people ... Ian is a very thorough man and has looked after a few of my mates...

so he was pleased that his 200 was thrashed by someone other than him?

hmmm...

I agree HPF are awesome, just too far away for me. :)

A mate of mine's family has all their cars done their. The mum drives a 300rwkw stroked/charged AU2 XR8. But the best is the dads, new BA GT-P twin turbo (427rwkw stage one, stock internals). And cause its the research car for a kit, and they had the car for 2 months longer than quoted they got it all done free.

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
