As you can imagine there is a very large difference. The car flattened right out and you can all of a sudden notice flex in the tires. Turn in and response is vastly improved. The car feels much more communicative (dont know if thats a word). It has decidedly shifted the balance to that of neutral to perhaps even slightly more rearward. This is just one part of a total package that I am installing to attempt to make one of the best handling STIs, so its not quite done. The KW V3 coilovers and whitline lateral links should be in tomorrow. The setup should be done next week.

Ride quality on uneven surfaces has definitely gone down. These are not for everyone.

I also recently installed whiteline steering rack bushings which most people know is a must and the ALK which seems to also work great.

As soon as i am done with the total setups, I will post links to all my writeups for those that are interested.
I know that many people swear by the 27mm up front, but 27mm in the rear seems HUGE! Sounds like it is working well for you, so that is all that matters. Also, I was under the impression that only the '04's needed the steering rack bushings? I thought that Subaru changed them to something more adequate for '05/'06.
