This vehicle will stay stock as far as power is concerned. Few things here and there on the visual end but nothing much. It will stay clean and simple.

Next track car will be just that... big cube, FI, RWD and 1xxxwhp. BUt it'll be a couple years before I can convince the wife we can afford to do it again....
Had you went with the EJ257 in the beginning youdve been better off. More power, reliable, less headache, ect.

Nice, I hate to see you leave the Suby community, but I'm happy you've got a car you're happy with now.

I know. Going back it would have had a 2.8 and a damn 40r on it.... Hell it would have been nice to even try building an H6.
