I think if you are talking about standard internaled classic shaped impreza turbos, then yes I aint doing too bad with somewhere between 390 and 448 with race fuel.
00MY UK car with just bolt ons.

Certainly gets well used !!

Anyone else see the 10 greatest sports cars ( or something similar ) on TV the other night - they had the Skyline as one of them, and said they were illegal to use on the roads in the USA.

Apparently they decided to ban them because so many people were tuning them up to stupid amounts !

Might be better to keep quiet about what your modded Scoob does in case the government over here get the same ideas...

They tried the same thing on sportsbikes a few years back - there was going to be legislation to have a max power of 100 bhp - something to do with Europe or the Germans deciding this would be a good idea.

Dont know what they would have dont to existing bikes though ? maybe fit limiters or disconnect one of the cylinders ;0)

From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

Its got a 99/00 Bumper and P1 splitter, OK the bumper has been butchered..

it has crystal headlights and a fibreglass skin 99/00 bonnet

car might shift with a bit better cam timing, the new bigger turbo and a different driver
