That quick? Ok good stuff..... I guess its the normal 240 wrx BHP?

What's a sensbile way to get some more bhp?

How much does a normal wrx weigh?

What is the top end, with the short ratio box?

May I recommend you link up with Fishous? He's just bought the same / similar car and has been asking the same questions. My thread concentrates on the V5 and V6 RAs and I sarted this to bring people together to knowledge share. Hopefully with a bit of publicity you'll attract the attention of some seasoned owners who will know the facts surrounding your car.

In the mean time this link may proove helpful.

112 mph until you remove the limiter. After that take it on a quiet motorway, or if you're like the rest of us your 'private airfield' and open it up to find out you top end.

Id forget about top speed if I were you. The first RAs have very low final drives..... Over 100 mph your intake temperature will go through the roof; itll all end in tears.
