@@tommykentner I upgraded to 20mm rear sway bar, tinted the windows and had all HID bulbs installed, inside and out and we even added a 2013 light switch in the rear header for the cargo area and HID lights for the footwell.
Thank you for the good review now I am interested after seeing sport modes and acceleration. Originally wanted a WRX but this fits better overall for my needs.
@@tommykentner first off - LOVEE the info video and thanks for the quick response Tommy! Is this 30mpg? You don't feel that the turbo decreased the mpg (when not fully utilizing the turbo - i.e. not constantly accelerating)?
Yes, too bad they stopped making the Forester XT. Just got my 2020 WRX the last year for this current generation. It’s my first Subaru vehicle. Hope you stop by my channel. Cheers.
I love the sporty suspension and power. Today I got it tinted plus it’s first Krown rust application to protect it from the winter and salted roads in Canada. I will try and make a video of it soon. I tested both the MT and CVT 2019 models back in April and did not like the rev hang in the MT. Was impressed with the HT CVT and went for it. I ordered a 2019 WRX in April and due to the long wait I got a 2020 MY on Oct 2nd. Made in Japan so not sure what caused the long wait. The plus is since I ordered the CVT, for 2020 the Eyesight comes standard with their AT, plus a few other goodies like an updated rear differential..
Need to keep my warranty so do not plan any engines mods for a while. The power and handling is adequate for me, but I will definitely follow your mods on your sick Forester XT!
How’s the forester going still. I’m considering getting one used. Just wondering if you have had any issues with it.
Awesome! Still running great no issues was so ever!
Just got mine last month....upgraded from 2014 XT Touring to 2018 XT Touring... much better ride.
Yes I love the XT just put the Cobb ap on it with a Pro tune! And it really fun to drive! 👊😎
