Well I was under the $1000 challenge rules for the whole car with mods (except for my coilovers which I would have taken off for the competition). I have exhaust, meth kit, cheapo FCD, used STi bypass valve and I had the used stock sti turbo on it.

Then I put a 1300 dollar turbo on it LOL. The external wastegate and uppipe weren’t necessary, but I’ve wanted an external dump for a long time and it certainly doesn’t hurt. Can you get called a ricer for running a dumping wastegate? I guess so

My car ran with a few stock STis on the old $1000 setup and my car is heavier. The legacy body is bigger in every dimension plus I have sunroof etc. My car is obviously faster now, but I don’t know how much yet. I’ll have to play with a stock STi to find out.
