Yeah my tuned wrx keeps me happy. I'll be upgrading the suspension shortly, then going stage 2, then wheels, then "stage 3", then a turbo upgrade, bigger brakes, and finally a conversion to e85 gas...currently to hit 100 kmph it takes about 4.4 sec for me, I've done it in 4.1 with launch control and ffs on a very good day... 1/4 mile is like 13.0 to 13.1.

check out xluben hear on nasioc. his build is just fantastic!

yeah, cooling is definitely something else sometimes...you can't go too thick on fluid because of the pumps but you can't go too thin either, or too volatile. Yuck, i actually learned things in thermo...ideally a copper intercooler/radiator with ultrapure water/alcohol mix would yield best cooling capability in high temperatures, but it would take so much more upkeep and corrosion and so many other problems...stupid chemistry

...sorry for that rant lol, just thought people might find it interesting
