Cool

I'm afraid it sounds like the typical impreza turbo.

I used to drive a 300zx twin turbo. It didnt stop pulling and pulling and pulling. Well you get the point.

Since i got this wrx it feels like game over after about 5000 revs. I'm trying all the mods under the sun to get this one sorted. Decatted zorst is good for starters!!!
