So it was finally time to move on to my next car...I had my 2001 GT since 2005 and just sold it late 2008. I loved that car to death. It was my first "sporty" car and I enjoyed driving it so much.
On to the WRX...I picked her up in November 2008 and swore to myself that I wouldnt do any mods until it was payed off. :lol: So much for that. I bought her with 45k on the clock and payed 17k including an extended warranty to 100,000 miles. This is the only good pic I have right now with all the current mods on it. Enjoy!
**UPDATE 2/16/10** - Finally got all the mods I needed to do my turbo upgrade. I posted up more pics and some dyno charts. The parts I added were:
EvoIII 16g Turbo
Deatschwerks 750cc Injectors
NGK One Step Colder Spark Plugs
Walbro Fuel Pump
SSAC FMIC
Hallman Pro Manual Boost Controller
Blitz Nur Spec R Catback
Perrin Lightened Crank Pulley
Megan Racing Coilovers
The car pulls SO much harder now. On a stage 2 setup I made 245whp/239wtq and with the stock turbo tuned @17spi tapered off to 12psi at redline. With the EvoIII 16g tuned @20.5psi it holds full boost all the way to redline making 288whp/265wtq. Doesnt seem like that much but with this car it is. Feels like a completely different ride. I might add a few more parts due to my goal of making 300whp.
