Its about the same as a stock wrx. Its more fun to drive (rwd). The cool thing is the exhaust i just ordered is dyno proven to give 25whp and 8lbt! Thats just the race pipe and catback. Also the 50/50 weight distribution is great =)

Haha i was thinking about gold's but i photo shopped them and thought they looked funny. The nice thing is that they are the same size wheels as 05+ sti's so i was trying to find someone to trade something but no one wanted to.

the torque isnt really good but you can make it up with the hp =) next year im looking into get a turbo kit for it. I almost did the turbo kit right when i bought it, but i put the money into the down payment and a new stereo system since i didnt get the bose package.
