My 08wrx intake,fmic,downpipe went 13.2@101 On a 1.7 60ft. It was gutted to the max. If your brother is looking for a front mount I still have it. ---

fuck. you guys with quick trucks are really making me want to mod the hemi. from all the research and timeslips ive been seeing, it looks like it would be stupid easy to get my truck to a mid 13sec 1/4 mile. they finally have a tuner for these things, and apparently B&G is seeing around 30hp at the rear wheels out of tuning the stock truck(provided it has a catch can to prevent the common knock from oil in the intake that these are notorious for). swapping out the stock 20" wheels to the lighter 17’s is good for a half second, and guys are also seeing almost a half second from changing out the stall converter. these things are a low 14 stock. i imagine doing all bolt ons and maybe a gear change to 3.92’s i could get a 13 flat out of this n/a. ugh. i need to not care about warrenty so much. lol. edit. gennaro, how quick is that vw? i dont know much about them ---

Just all around nicely built car IMO especailly for DD purposes. I really wanted an R but couldn’t justify spending double what I spent just for awd and slightly bigger turbo. ---
