Usualy ~5500 is what I Have used on WRX or Sti no matter that way I can drag it and its a good smooth launch. Too low you will bog and too high could damage something.

Lol why do you say that? You aren't popping off the clutch right? Make sure you just drag it out but not to the point where it burns up

Welcome to the site! Which exhaust are you looking at? To save some $$$ hit up the FS section on 3gwrx.com. FWIW, I had the ultimate racing CBE on my 08 WRX for about 6 months and absolutely loved it! (only reason I got rid of it was to fund my RS swap, otherwise I would still have it)

Look at Ebay or contact Josh at importimageracing.com and see what kind of deal he can give you.
