WRX questions

I know that there are a few wrx guys on here so thought I would start here. I'm picking up an 04 wrx today and was wondering where to start looking for good info on the car. Are there any quality forums like evom for the wrx? Also, I have one specific question that I havn't found the answer to yet. Does anyone know what the psi is set at stock and how much can the stock engine take?

Any and all help would be great. I will miss my lancer, but am looking forward to working on a new car.

I used to have a WRX, nice car; you should enjoy it coming from a Lancer.
Here are a bunch of forums
Google: WRX forums
NASIOC and i-Club are probably the most popular. Do a search on one of those sites and you'll find *many* posts to answer your boost question.

nice, what are your plans for it. wrx is a popular stepping stone from the reg lancer it seems.

I am looking at the utec right now. has a forge BOV on it when i got it. Deciding if I will keep that or go back to stock. There seems to be alot of people saying both good and bad. Besides that, I'm not sure what will be done with it. I'd like to just get used to the car for a month or 2 before I worry about power. Oh, one biggie is that the shifter sucks. Getting a kartboy and all bushings for with it. The WRX is great so far but I will always love my lancer because it was the first car I ever bought on my own.
