I have a PLX Kiwi

http://www.plxdevices.com/product_info.php?id=GSSTBLUETOOTH

It wasn't cheap but it does the trick. I've not run it on the Impreza yet but it worked fine with my vx220 and S2000 I run it with the Torque app on android

any Bluetooth adaptor will work... if you use a cheap one it may show false readings on the mpg and power info
for some reason it was showing my bug done 35 mpg ha! I don't think so

It works spot on!

Thought you said that was a little "enthusiastic"?

It is on the BHP......but maybe that's because I might have lied a little about my weight lol!

It will connect to your ECU via the OBII port under your steering wheel. You just download the Torque app from the Android store - it's about £2.90 for the full version and you can configure it to show loads of info - hell you can even clear errors on the ECU!!! Have a read of what it does here:

No probs mate - all you do is plug it iton port and pair it to your Android phone when the ignition is turned on. Then you confirgure your car details by putting in make, model, weight of car, how much fuel in the car, what weight you are, etc - I have an Galaxy S3 and bought a little suction cup adaptor to stick my phone to the windscreen as well.

I got mine from Amazon, around £10 and has worked a treat on the Subaru, BMW, Mini and Mercedes. I also have a wired USB one for when I want to run a few datalogs at once on the laptop.

Gives a very convenient alternative to a boost gauge and as well as showing current boost via whatever display you choose it will also record the max and min or graph it over time so you can easily see what max boost you are hitting without having to stare at a gauge. Obviously any data you read is down to software but the Torque app on my Note II works great. I have one screen with Boost, Temp, BHP (est), 0-60 and a few others.
