Sorry !
The id is EZ1D105C
what bludgod is asking for is the "ROM" or data pulled from the obd2 port under your dash. In order to do this you need a tactrix 2.0 cable. (note: i have tried all of the other fakes of this cable with no sucess; go with the original from their website!)
I also have a 5 speed manual outback 2.5i, although it is a 2007. i was wondering if i could benefit from this post as well (you will see my post a few below) because i also need a definition file.
once you have the cable with ecuflash installed, read from the car and FOLLOW THE PROMPTS. you dont want to destroy your ecu!
If you have questions feel free to pm me because im getting to know all of this too, and since we have similar cars we might be able to help each other out!

good luck!
