> [@zwarbyt](#): > > why would you put that motor in a wrx? ugly car to start with and it will never be a sleeper… disagree i know plenty of people who love beating up on wrx’s… and are always assuming the wrx is slow. granted a very good percentage of them are, but imagine the surpise when someone lines up next to an ls1 wrx, and then gets smoked… :eek: either way i love different swaps :tup: ---

WOW people confuse Chevy 350’s with LS1 346’s to much, very different engines. Personally the boxer fours have a ton of potential and I wouldn’t wanna loose the AWD, thats just part of the Subaru characteristic. Anywho it still be a fun ride. ---

might be a fun ride. I cant hate on it, since my dream street car is either an FD or an old 240 with a blown LS1 or equivalent.
