Default STi Owner here

Hey guys,

Just became a member here to learn more about your historic and legendary rides. My all time favorite ford at this point has got to be the 03-04 cobras! You gotta love 'em! I was really looking into one but I never found a good deal at the time and I ended up with my scoobie.

cheers,

Right on it nice to see some Japanese in these parts. I just happen to own a Mustang and a Turbocharged Mazda MX6. STI`s are crazy fast off the line!

Welcome. My last two cars were an '02 WRX Wagon and an '06 WRX Wagon. The '06 was modified to include an STi Turbo (VF-39), STi TMIC, Cobb DP, and a Borla Hush CBE and put 304 AWHP to the ground. Do you have a front mount to get that much out of the VF-39?

Welcome aboard.

Welcome, I had a 2003 WRX with a Cobb Stage 2 package on it. It was a fun car for a while.

Ah, Topspeed does great work. Your headers make a difference too, and of course the race gas is huge. The '06 and '07 WRXs using a VF-39 are actually easier to tune for a little more HP due to higher compression. That's crazy torque on race gas.
