stop me from upgrading to a vf34!!!

when i bought my wrx, i told myself i would just slap on the basics and not upgrade the turbo because i don't want to get too deep into fixing up my ride. after seeing more vf34 deals, i am so tempted to upgrade the turbo. someone stop me before i get into it too deep! haha vf34 packages are going for around $1100-1200 + $200 for tuning and maybe install, but thats at least an extra 50hp to the wheels. tell me why i shouldn't do it before it's too late!!!!!!! haha

Cons:
If your thinking of selling your car this may drive buyers away, and you will also lose 99% of your money you put into your car.

Other than this if you plan on keeping your car for a while do it!!!!!!!!! Its well worth it!!!
