Went in for a 2016 STI came away with a 2016 WRX
Not sure if this is allowed but I joined clubwrx.net and wanted to give the same basic intro over here see below. Also I in the bay area, wife is going to paypal the money now for Sunday's meet in Fremont hope its ok being a day late!
I recently unintentionally bought a WRX after going in wanting an STI. Test drove a couple of STIs, fantastic cars, shame they dont have the new engine. Dealer talked me into trying a new WRX and i was so surprised in its abilities, the early torque power band is so accessible, even when compared against its hardcore brother, the cornering grip is just insane, for me it just made sense. Wanted gray settled on wifes choice of white with short shift and harmon kardon.
Just thought i should say hi before i start lurking and annoying folks for information. Dump Valve will be my first research project, ive always been facinated by turbo wooshes and atmospheric psssh's but some how Ive never gotten around to putting one on previous turbos i've owned. At 6k miles I'll probably look to safely remap with bits like intake, and maybe an exhaust but im getting a little to old for super loud droney stuff, if a switchable one exists alike what i had on my Porsche and it increased performance i would be in the market.
Im in for northern cali meets!
