lol! Nah nothings bullet proof. And I did a months research, but there was nowhere to do a compression test,and being 1 of 100 I had to pounce and take the risk. Ill live, had the experience of one and id reccomend an RX8 to anybody who wants a superior handling car. Just buy a broken one and rebuild it lmao!

with the price of bug sti's, i'd spend a bit more than the wrx and get the sti.
i saw addi on the rollers at the clinic, 352bhp. on the way home i tried racing him (blob 325bhp) and he left me standing
if you sold your car, would you keep the dyno print out? didn't think so

How the hell do you work that one out
OS re map on rollers by a very trusted mapper on here £300, tdo5 16g turbo £100, 550 pinks £100, full decat (second hand cobra for example) £140, few gaskets £40.
When i went to school that was under £700 and the prices are right aswell

If you have to buy this, it will set you back about 60-70 quid including postage.
Not disputing that they are cheap, but something to take into account. I'll be running a 16g on my own bug when it's ready, and for the money they're cracking turbo's IMO.
You'll also need to add a fuel pump and a decat up-pipe into the price, plus definitely 30 or so quid worth of exhaust gaskets on an 11-12 year old car.

You do realise the 16g turbos you see for 100 quid need to have a different cover as well?
