Because a 66 VW weighs less than the spoilers and cannards on the average WRX....

I'm very aware of what they weight.

I also appreciate all the love here lately. Good to know I run your life.

Lol, honestly just price and availability. I still need to contact outfront motorsports to make sure once the 22 is in I can swap over to an SOHC ej25 with a turbo. Plus I dont want to kill my tranny first ride out. I wanna make sure everything else on the car can support the hp.

Yeah I figured price had something to do with it. As far as availibility though, they can be found on Nasioc pretty often.

GL with everything though. Should he pretty damn fun.

Not to get back to the spike or anything but I added the stock moulding underneath them. Not sure if i like it tho... maybe it will grow on me... mounted the running boards too but not before they beat my ass...
