Serious rubber because of the arches... what sized tyres, Simon? How much of the original arch bodywork had to be rolled, or even cut away!, to get those massive wheels/tyres under?

And where did you get those arches from? (more than a hint of original 911 GT2 about them ) Are they bespoke ones for the Classic Impreza?

v6 heads.

it has a slight header leak, costing a little spool and torque, but needed to map it so I could drive it as no time to fix the leak, as turbo, headers, injectors all fitting in last couple of days.

it didn't spend long on the dyno.. worried about ppg gearbox breaking also..
