Sell the GSX?

[JoeGengsta]

Yeah.. so many of you know/seen my car.. but now i'm thinking of selling it and then buying a STi, what do you guys think? any opinions?

DSM has more potential then an STI. have you seen the Intercooler, first off, why would they mount the BOV to the IC??? Secondly HOW THE FUCK IS THE IC SUPPOSED TO COOL THE AIR WHEN ITS SITTING ON TOP OF A PIPING HOT ENGINE???? Damn austrailians must think that if their toilets flush the wrong way heat must travel down instead of up here.

They do have a good sized hood scoop ya know.. It was engineered in Japan not Austrailia...

Subaru is a Japanese company owned partially by Fuji Heavy Industries. I believe GM has a stake in the company too.

You've got to be shitting me... Why does it matter where the BOV is located? As long as it's between the intercooler and the throttle body it'll work just the same. The IC isn't anything to right home about, but neither are most stock ICs. The WRX IC is kind of small but there are plenty of top mount ICs out there to replace it, most of which are bigger than the STi one. The STi hood scoop is HUGE. At speed it directs PLENTY of air into the IC. It also helps cool the turbo as well. And Subaru is a Japanese company, you blithering idiot.

A GT35R on a stock STi bottom end. No potential? :lollerskates:

And.... A slow DSM is better looking than a STi anyday. Those subaru looks just plain suck!

If you get an Sti, you better keep it stock so you can get those trannys warrantied. I say keep the 2g.

Matt: A bov does not HAVE to be between the IC and the TB. It can be anywhere between the turbo and the TB.

True, but only HORT would put a BOV 10' from the throttle body rather than 10".
