Reflashing of 08 WRX is not yet supported, but there is work being done on it. See tactrix.com .

Data logging will work with ECU Explorer (tari.co.za) among others, with most OBDII cables, but at least any of the Tactrix OpenPort cables (tactrix.com).

When this car is supported, you will be able to obtain your ROM by reading it out of your own car's ECU. It is recommended that you tune this file, not use someone elses. This way you are more likely to achieve a compatible result.

There will be very little / no support for these ROMs to start with, until the openecu community starts pulling them apart and finding where the maps are.

I think the '08 models will be up to speed pretty fast as soon as the new Openport 2.0 cables are available. Watch tactrix.com.

Thanks for answering my questions :)

So theres currently no way to remove the revs (delimiter) limit or increase the torque?

Very sad :(
