Cool to meet you, too 
Thanks a ton for the ride...It's scary-fast, even at just 1.3bar!
I have a lot of investigative work to do on my car. Apparently it was Ecutek'd? Hmmm.....strikes me odd that it's running very rich, sustaining 1.1-1.2bar, is laggy and not all that fast. I'll call Jarrad tomorrow.
I feel like an idiot watching the boost gauge in first gear, not paying attention to the tach. Can only guess what happened

It is nearly stock...so I thought. James (faded) was actually looking to buy what is now my STi, about a year ago. According to Mastro it had been Ecutek'd. Very believeable considering the fuel problem and sustaining 17.6psi (stock is 14.5psi).
BUT if it is Ecutek'd, why is it so laggy and slow? Did they reflash parts of the computer to stock and left others? Very confusing.....

someone could have flashed it and didnt know what they were doing. more fuel and some timing tweaks will make it go faster up top.... but you have teh lag factor....
