and judging by the fuel economy of a impreza,,,, i would say its not as efficient in design as a evo engine

the parts and work for subarus are also a big factor, 4 cams required not2, 4 adjustable pullys, the injectors are "different design" as they are side fed (i know other cars are but not as many as top fed) blah blah blah

now to get 500bhp from a scooby is more than the cars worth with the classics so generally aint done i guess
well said. The exact answer that was needed. Alot off people seem to forget these kind of things.

mate as much as i LOVE evos,, we are talking about 350 at the fly compared to 350 at the fly,,,,,,, compare them and see you might be suprised tbh

though saying that Evos do look better has to be said,, subaru's only look good when parked beside a Pulsar GTiR if im honest

I think I'm at around £42k including the car and if you think thats a lot ask billyt how much his evo stands him and thats with him doing all the work as for 1/4 miles I'm the weak point in this as my gear changes are shocking and I average 11.9 with a 127mph terminal. I have ran these times consistently. With a proper driver behind the wheel the times would be much lower. I was at the marhan day last year and the car with less power does 170mph top end.

Bring your piddly car to the Marham 30-130 event this year as I will be there and you can then prove how much superior your car is

I do laugh at this as mine is a marmite car and if I was to post a picture of it most would say the kit is horrible yet if you ask people what they considered to be the best looking car be it evo/scooby/skyline they all seem to have one thing in common and thats they all have the same/similar kit as mine does.

here is a quick example

Why do the MLR lot have to act like 12 year olds, where as most of scoobynet can have a mature discussion regarding the original question. If you do not have anything of note to add to thread sling ye hook back to the MLR.
