Advice wanted

I have a \'95 BG5 tt manual wagon. It\'s done around 203,000k\'s.

It\'s 100% factory except for some low king springs. Motor has never had the boost raised etc.

I service it regularly and it\'s just had new cambelt, waterpump, seals, gaskets, spark plugs, air and fuel filter, all liquids replaced, basically everything possible without lifting the heads or rebuilding the block.

How long can I expect the block to last?

As far as I know the turbos are the original ones, car blows no smoke, both still produce boost effortlessly, what sort of life span can I expect out of them

What are the manual gearboxs like as far as longevity? Bearings, synchros? It\'s got a slightly graunch only sometimes going into reverse and sometimes going from 2nd back to 1st

I\'m just debating whether or not to keep it or sell it off whilst the going is good and get something else

Any advice would be appreciated.

Its a subaru

It could die tomorrow because you look at it funny, or it could tick along for another 200 thou happily

Put it this way - you could sell it now for probably 3k (ish), or add another hundred thou and it\'d probably still sell for about the same $. They\'ve de-valued about as much as they can really

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
