Don't remind me- it is still my favorite car that I have owned. And I did not wreck it, the dumptruck driver behind me killed it. I had a line on a 96 with options like the old one, same color (but w/ black leather), but I could not get the money together for it in time.

I have been looking into a few things for the Scooby, and I am thinking a new Access Port, and Cat back after they show it at SEMA. I have ordered the SPT Intake and heat shield, and will do a few more things as time goes on. I am jealous of the center caps for your wheels, and they are $165 just for the center caps.I think I am going to buy a 73 Dodge Dart Swinger that I looked at today. It has a built 440 with 727 trans, and runs 7.30 in the 1/8th. It is mini-tubbed, and has had a lot of work done to it. I think I am going to buy it, fix it up a bit, and sell it for three times what I pay for it. I also think the Mustang will be rendered obsolete with just a couple of mods to the STI. With the cash I make from the sale of those vehicles, I will be positioning myself to purchase a 70-74 Cuda or Challenger next year.

Ok dude... time for some scooby school.

Cobb re-badges stromung exhausts which are about 50 bucks cheaper. Dont waste your time on the SPT intake, put that money towards a Bellmouth Downpipe. The stock intake is supposed to be good up to like 350-400WHP. Unless you just want to hear the wishhhhhhh sound of air being sucked through the intake. Access port is an excellent choice.

Nick... those are some big rotors.

baseline was 270 whp, and 287 torque

after tuning ended up with 322 whp, and 343 torque!!

I know that nobody cares but I found out a few interesting things about the new STi's.

There was a lot of speculation that the 06's and 07's were the same car. Oh no... not at all.

The ECU is completely different with more maps than the 06 to better cover possible detonation issues and provide better economy on freeway conditions

Different gearsets than on previous STi's

New design of headers... still uneven of course.
