I finally spent my truck fund, but on my WRX!
I ordered this afternoon Helix turbo back exhaust which consists of Downpipe and catback, one high flow cat in the downpipe. I also ordered a Cobb Accessport (engine managment) for a 280hp 335ft pounds of torque sedan.
WOO HOO!

You just wait.
I have a feeling this mod will be enough until summer, but come fall it is turbo swap time. Only 2100 bucks to swap in an IHI VF34, around 350 whp sedan. But for now I will be happy.

Are you on any 2x4 forums I'm sure they'd rather see your POS there.
At least I spin all four.

SR swap that thing! Seriously, 200SX's aren't bad cars depending on what year it is.

Its a nice car, but I was just thinking of playing around with the 1.6. I seen someone get 250hp out of one before.

The place where we do our work is this house where 4 drifters live together and they all have 240sx's, they're pretty cool guys.

Yea, I like the 240's, but they are to expencive for my budget. I wanna make my 200sx rear wheel drive though, that'd be interesting.

Yup, I seem to remember jimbo sayin he was on a wood forum once :rofl2:

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

wa4x4

Bahhh that's priceless!

Man, I'm on backorder but Cobb is notorious for telling you that you have 2 weeks to wait and then ships it out the next day. To the best of my knowledge my turbo back hasn't been shipped yet. Hopefully it will be here by next weekend, I need to at least have my turbo back on by May 13th. Maybe full stage 2 and Cobb springs.

My car 22k out the door. STi, 34k out the door. Starting to get it? Plus my car is insured as an impreza, IE not a high risk car, STi is a high risk car.

And the 300 is crank HP, which is around 280 horsepower,  equal to what I will have and I will have more torque.

Well it would be worse if none of this money had come from working. Sure I do stuff for my parents 99% of people my age do. My parents are paying me for the work I do so I don't go out and get a regular job. They offered to pay me when I starting bringing applications home after I lost my temporary job at Target.
