so, what all have you got done to your subaru... I have numerous friends with WRXs and a couple with STIs. They all love them! Welcome to the boards

i have a little mod called "in out of state college"

so nothing as of yet. i have an RS- it's no wrx and certainly no sti but it handles decently and is a nice torquey motor (EJ25). the 5 speed is geared pretty tall but all in all i'm happy with it. i got it as a senior in highschool and thought i'd be driving it in wet conditions, so the awd would be a bonus... but now that i'm in college i'm wishing i had gone the route of an EP hatch.

don't get me wrong, i love the subaru... it's just that without the wrx's EJ20 turbo engine it's not as enjoyable.

so yeah... my car is stock. i'm either going to keep it that way and trade it in or mod it in a little while. i don't need to go fast anyway. (don't have any tracks or autoxs i know of around here.)

my friend has a WRX with 18.25psi from a jdm ej20 swap, vf35 turbo,STI injectors, Turbo XS 3" downpipe, Magnaflow Exhaust, Tien flex w/elec control, 6.5" panisonic lcd screen w/ HKS camp system. with a healthy list of interrior/sound mods.

he took it to vishnu here in cali for a dyno and got 270 at the wheels with messed up fuel pump.

if ya have any questions im sure he would be glad to shoot ya an answer. ;)

sounds awesome!

do you mean the VF34 turbo? i'm pretty sure IHI doesn't make a vf35...

if so, he's pretty much made himself an STI Spec C.

i hope to do an EJ20 swap when i'm out of college, but gas is expensive enough with my 2.5 liter.

or i might go the route of a lot of EG owners i know and strip the interior and just do basic header/exhaust with maybe some COBBtuning cams. forced induction is great but i am poor and don't know if i will be able to afford it straight out of college.
