Exhaust companies are going to love the results that an aftermarket exhaust shows on this car. ---

I understand how John Q Consumer opposes this though. Im kinda basing this argument off of cars like the Evo X I guess. Im not sure what drove up the weight of that pig but wouldn’t buyers of that car prefer a little saved weight with saftey compromised slightly? ---

probably not, considering they’re one of the most crashed cars out there. Those extra airbags help a lot of FGGTS who get evo’s as 16th birthday presents live to see 18. ---

Idk… That was back when they were $30k and that was in the realm of possibility for situations like that. At $40k, these are becoming more of pure enthusiast cars 😕 I see your point though. ---

They’re rated @ 210 at the crank, and they’re making only 13hp less than that at the wheels. While it’s not super fucking amazing, it’s still pretty decent. At least it’s not like the Rx8’s rated hp compared it’s actual :lol: ---
