is it a coincidence that you bought another forced induction car or do you love it too?
I was actually looking at a 5.3L Silverado, but decided to get the WRX instead. Basically, I wanted a car that I could drive int he winter. Unfortunately, my speeding tickets from the Z28-days caught up with me and my insurance company booted me. I've got to get my own insurance, which is a bitch in NJ at 20 years old. I can no longer afford to pay for full coverage on the WRX so it becomes the family whore-mobile, everybody will take turns riding it. I'm looking at getting an older high mileage LT1 though. :D

Not much honestly.
I ran the time in my sig on bone stock exhaust and intake with just the K&N panel that was in it when I bought it. Other mods were Delco 41-932s, drilled hypertec 180 stat, Pulley Boys Qwik Change hub with 3.4 pulley an In-tents Gen 2 LSD :thumbdown. Since then I've added a 3" Ubend delete and resonator and my cat for unknown reasons broke up and is now hollow ;) and NGK TR6 plugs. I've also added clear front corners silver star head lights and the Monte/Impala 11.9 caliper brackets with Power Stop Rotors and KVR pads. It was tinted when I bought it also.
I've got a few other goodies to add whenever I finally get my exhaust finished :devil:
All with a race weight of 3665 pounds :eek:
