Head gasket and water pump need to be replaced.

Sorry to hear it Will.
I think that is the first head gasket I've ever known to go on a subaru. Let alone water pump.
Hope the repair isn't too pricey.

Hope she heals quickly. I also hope this isn't going to become a trend amongst higher HP 2.5's...
