Default Hello scooby new-b in need of advice

Hi,

I'm thinking of selling my Audi TT 225 and getting a scooby. I'v been reading the forum today but am in need of some help.

Is the wrx sti ppp 305bhp the quickest in the 03-05 range?

Is there a wide arch kit for the hawkeye if so got any pics, links?

Whats the bhp on the hawkeye ppp?

What are the 0-60 times on a ppp blob and hawk eye?

Thanks in advance

Forget about PPP, overpriced IMO. Buy yourself a STi and have it remapped, decatted etc etc

0-60 times don't mean squat, have a look at the knowledge in Evo magazine, go nuts.

I don't how much of a premium a PPP car attracts over a non-PPP car when 2nd hand but TBH you could get a late model STi up to 350bhp for a little over 1K for fuel pump, decat and remap. That's hardly modding too many bits?

Think the WR1 is the quickest 0-60 time, 4.25 secs

They are all 2004 cars, but they keep a premium price over others as its a limited edition of 500.

One for sale on Wr1oc.co.uk I think

and no its not mine

There are a few standard WRX's (hawkeye) that have a similar colour.

But no STi's etc.

You won't regret it, apart from petrol bills, but about the same as an STI PPP anyway I think.
Insurance might actually be cheaper - as its classed as standard - with 320bhp

Think there's one for sale in club - and on here - for £18K with a warranty which is extendable.

There quite unique too, you won't often pass another on the road.
