I love the "carbon is 3 times tougher than metal", I could demonstrate with a hammer to prove him wrong

To put this into the same category as other STi subaru's, is like comparing an STi to a Suzuki Swift
What a tw@t...

You just know that when an advert is as vague as "uprated turbo" and "racing con rods" its going to be a crock of selling bull****!

Also love that he reduces the weight by 200 kg by use of 'the real Carbon Fibre', then adds this back with loads of speakers and amps

I like carbon parts,but these nonsense what this seller write is little bit OTT(if this will make it from titanium parts,after this car will be one off in UK,i think).
390BHP and don't mention upgraded turbo or who mapped car etc.

I think I need to detune mine as it appears 390bhp does 189mph where as mine only does 170mph, I put a siebon carbon bonnet on mine and it weighs more than the standard STI one
